WBSR1060T8AA General Electric Washer - Instructions

I used a pair of pliers to turn my dryer on until I broke the center part where the knob went. I order the part that was in the dryer first and it came the next day. When it got here I realized I still needed the knob. It came the next day also. It took my handyman about 15 minutes to replace both and he also cleaned out all of the missing socks and other items behind my dryer. Good Job!

I had no intention of trying to fix the washer myself after reading about how to do it, only because I didn't know what half of the words were referring to. But once I watched the video, and I saw that the part was going to cost less than $15.00 (shipping included), I thought I would at least try it before going out and buying a new machine. The washer in the video was slightly different than mine, but I recognized the parts from my machine and mine was actually easier to replace than the one in the video. I just pulled off the agitator, unbolted the old agitator coupling and replace it with the new one, bolted it back on and lined up the agitator grooves with coupling and that was it. It worked and saved me a lot of money. I once had an appliance repairman tell me that if your washer or dryer lasts 7 years nowadays, you should consider yourself lucky. Mine is 7 years old, so I thought I would have to replace it. I didn't particularly want to pay someone $100.00 to come to my house and tell me it couldn't be fixed if I was going to have to buy a new one. But fixing it myself was very easy. Written instructions never would have worked for me, but the video was very helpful. Thanks!

I noticed the agitator would spin all the way around, in each direction. Also, the machine would make no sound, associated with washing, during that part of the cycle. I pulled the fabric softener reservoir off, with fingers on each side of the agitator, i pulled straight up and that gives you access to the coupling. Use a 7/16'" socket to loosen the nut, remove it and pull the coupling off. Press the new coupling on the splined shaft, tighten nut, and line up agitator with the grooves, push it down and replace fabric reservoir. Straightforward repair.

Took off old agitator, removed coupling that was bad and put new one on.

I used the video instructions sent to my email and everything worked perfectly as instructed.

Pull the Agitator out by hand no tools where needed. Took Fabric Softer dispenser off put it on new Agitator. Pushed the new Agitator on. Repair done. Sure am happy I did it myself. Service charge from repair company would have been a lot more then $50.00.

My 45 year old son did it in the shop, and it only took a short time before we were washing clothers again, and no water on the floor. The part came through the day after I ordered them. Thank you very much

Removed agitator by pulling up, wiggle to and fro, watch out for unexpected release. Agitator coupler was worn, stripped splines. 7\16 socket, long extension to remove bolt in coupler. Install new coupler, new bolt, then line up agitator to splines on agitator coupler and push to snap in place.

Remove agitator remove retainer screw and using Prybar lift off the old coupler ..... After removal use heat gun and wire brush to remove plastic residue from the splines of the motor shaft ... While the shaft is still warm line up the splines from the new coupler and using the mallet force the coupler on the shaft ... Install the retainer screw that comes with the coupler and snap on the agitator ... Done

I pulled up on the fin part of the agitator exposing the gear coupling. I unbolted the nut on top with a 12 mm socket. Once the nut and washer were removed I pulled up on the gear coupling and slid it right off. Reversed procedures to install the new one.
