My washer never drained after the wash cycle. I manually emptied the water, unplugged the unit to reset then ran a diagnostic. It gave me f5 & e2. Looking up the codes, gives me the info that the lid lock assembly is bad. How dependable is this info and if it's the most likely scenario, how hard is it to replace and how expensive?

I'm getting an f2 e3 error and beeping. Help?
For model number WTW8040DW0

Hi David, thank you for your question. This error code could mean a couple of things. First, it could mean that the user interface is not communicating correctly with the main control board. To correct the issue, try unplugging the washer for a few minutes and plug it back in to see if this resets it. If this does not correct the issue, it could be a wiring issue between the 2 parts or either the main control board or the user interface has malfunctioned. If so, they will need to be replaced. Second, this problem could also be caused when the main control board senses a change in pressure. If the pressure hose between the tub and pressure sensor has a blockage, is kinked or is leaking air, then it will need to be either cleaned or replaced. If the hose is fine, you will need to replace the main control board. We hope this helps!

Will the washplate stop the grinding noises I am experiencing on my washer. The wash plate loose
For model number WTW8040DW0

Hi Dock, thank you for contacting us. We would recommend tightening the wash plate screw. If this does not help, then you may need to replace the washer wash plate, part number PS11699797. The wash plate turns back and forth at the bottom of the spin basket to circulate the wash load through the water. If it is faulty, your washer will be noisy. We hope this helps, good luck with this repair!

My Cabrio washer makes a very loud jet engine loud while spinning and agitating. I have read the tub bearing needs to be replaced. Are there videos for this? Does it sound like an accurate diagnosis? Is only the bearing needed or do I need additional parts?
For model number WTW8040DW0

Hello Sonya, thank you for getting in touch. We have researched and found that you may need to check the gearcase, part number PS12741641, to fix the issue. The gearcase drives the agitator and spins the basket in the washer. Regrettably we do not have any video on how to replace the gearcase, however you can replace the gearcase by following these instructions: 1. Disconnect the hoses that are attached to the washer. 2. Remove the screws holding in the harness cover and the top panel at the back. 3. Secure the door with the duct tape to prevent your door from opening up and lift up the top panel. 4. Pull out all the tabs securing the tub and lift up the tub ring. 5. Pry out the impeller cap, unscrew the bolt and take out the wash plate. 6. Remove the spanner nut and lift out the tub. 7. Reconnect the top panel screws. 8. Turn over the washer and take out the rotor by removing the nut. 9. Remove the screws holding onto the clutch. 10. Disconnect the wires by removing the securing screws. 11. Dismount the transmission by removing all the bolts and pull out the transmission. 12. Install the new transmission by reversing the same procedure. We hope this helps!

Scratches in Surface
This product comes in a bottle with a brush like Liquid Paper. It goes on incredibly easy. A second coat might be needed. I wanted to prevent rust from setting in so I covered the scratches and dings. The paint is a little brighter since my washer is 10 years old but it still looks great.

Replace Cracked Whirlpool Cabrio Washing Machine Lid
This is a very simple repair. My lid was severely cracked on the back left corner where there seems to be a lot of pressure/torque required to shut the lid. There is a metal L-shaped "tab" that inserts into the lid on both sides of the back edge of the lid. The lid is attached to these metal tabs with two screws for each side. My cracked lid had resulted in the lid breaking off of the metal tab with the screws still anchored into the metal tab.

Make sure screws have been removed from the metal tabs on both sides. Do not remove metal tabs- leave them attached to the washing maching (otherwise, you will not be able to attach the lid back onto the machine). Slide the lid over the tabs. There are square-shaped spaces along the edge of the lid where the tabs slide into the lid. Re-screw the screws into the lid, attaching the lid to the tabs through pre-drilled holes on the sides of the lid. It may take a little time to make sure the screws are properly inserted into the lid and tab screw holes. Tighten up and you're finished.
