Part #WP285655
The hose clamp is used to hold the water hose in place which will prevent the hose from leaking water. Sometimes the clamp may lose its ability to latch on, causing a leaking washer. For the installation, you will need a flat head screw driver to replace the clamp and a drill to access the screws to remove the front of the washer. Be careful if you do not have specific clamp pliers as the clamp could fly off. Once the front of the washer has been removed, take a quick look for water damage or any obvious signs of where the leak is coming from. If it is not obvious, run water to test.

If it detects that it is open it will prevent the washer from rotating and agitating until it is closed. This kit includes the bracket, actuator, switch, screws, and wire harness. To complete this installation, you will need a number two Phillips screwdriver, and a 5/16 nut driver. Before beginning this repair, make sure the power supply to your washer is disconnected. In order to install this part, you will need access to the rear of the unit.

Plate Nut
Part #WP3400029
This size 10 plate nut with 32 threads per inch is located in your household appliances. It securely fastens various parts together, such as panels, brackets, and accessories, to the frame. It features a built-in washer and is also known as a captured nut or a caged nut. If the secured components feel loose, wobbly, or are coming apart, it may indicate that the nut has lost its grip or become stripped. To maintain stability and safety, it is crucial to replace a broken or faulty plate nut. Refer to your user guide to access the plate nut on your specific appliance model, which could be near the console, along the door, or on the tub support. Once located, loosen it using a wrench or pliers. Keep in mind that this OEM fastener is sold individually, so make sure to determine the quantity needed before making a purchase. It is also advisable to keep spare plate nuts on hand for future repairs.

Washer Spin Cycle Stopped

  • Diana from La Mirada, CA
  • Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers
Removed the screw from the side of the lid of the washer. Took off the old Lid Switch Actuator and screwed in the new one. Took a little elbow grease because the old screw was tight but no longer than 15 minutes tops.
