Washer Would not drain
  • Benjamin from New York, NY
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Firs things first - get as much water out of the basin as possible using a siphon or a container and a sponge. Have towels ready for inevitable spillage. Dispose of water in a toilet. Remove the front panel of the washer. The pump is attached with 2 screws/nuts. Remove the pump and place in an empty bucket. Then remove the hose clam ps from the washer inside the bucket to catch any water left in the hoses. Attach the new pump to the washer. Then attach the hoses to the new pump. Replacement is very fast and easy - total time from setup to testing, to cleanup 1.5 hours.

cold water continued to run and water leaked all over garage floor
  • Gary from Porter, ME
  • Easy
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers
The original inlet valve comes in from the rear and the replacement inlet valve mounts horizontally and this will not allow the use of the valve mounting plate and I needed to make a new plate so the supply hose could mount. After making the new plate and having the supply hose attach vertically, the system appears to be functioning prope rly. Having to make a new mounting plate was an unexpected adventure!

When the washer was filling up with water it would not stop and overflowed. This only happened once.l I called Frigidaire & was told I needed a new agitator & could replace it myself.

Washer won't drain

  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Pliers
My wife done the repair while I was out of town. She never tries to won't on anything in fear that she will mess it up.But she said she had it fixed in ten minutes. Just take the hoses off the pump, unplug, and unbolt where mounted. Then reverse to put on new one. Partselect is always very prompt to sent my parts and I have never had an i ssue with anything. I will buy all my parts from them from now on.

Water overflowed not shutting off.
  • Harold from Portland, OR
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers
I turned off water valves. I then unplugged the AC. I took the 4 screws out on the back end of the top cover of the washer. I removed the two water lines from the water inlet vales and the two electrical connectors. I then removed the two screws holding the water valve assembly and it came out easy. Installed new water valve assembly moun ted with two screws , then put the electrical connection and water lines back on new water valve assembly. I turned the incoming water vales on and installed the top cover with the four back screws and was done.

My washer started making a loud, screeching noise and then stopped working.
  • Tom from Hamilton, OH
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Screw drivers
Following the easy instructions on PartSelect's website, I first removed the screws from the bottom, front of the washer. Then, using the putty knife, I unhooked the clips holding the washer top to the front and pulled off the front. I pushed in the belt wheel and removed the old belt, which was being held on by one strand. Then, I put on the new belt, put the front back on, replaced the screws and then pushed the washer lid back down over the clips. It worked perfectly and took less than 15 minutes and cost me next to nothing. Thanks for a great site!

Clothing/Sheets/Towels snagging in washer
  • Jeffrey from Smithfield, PA
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Pliers, Socket set
The repair was very simple. Just remove the fabric softener container at the top of the agitator and there was a cover with a little plastic "hook" on the top. Just take a pair of pliers and pull on the hook pretty hard and it pops off. Then using a 1/2" socket, loosen and remove the bolt and pull off the old agitator. Slide the new a gitator over the "drive shaft" where the old one was, tighten the nut, put the cap back on, place the fabric softener tray back on, and I was back in business. Works great now.

The washer hose assembly had mutiple tears in the bellow section of the hose, towards the outlet net the spout.
  • Humberto Aarón from Castroville, TX
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers, Wrench (Adjustable)
Used a metal cooking spoon to pry open the lid, held it in place with a chain (mentioned in the tools required) and used needlenose pliers to remove the clamp on the old hose assmbly. Transferd that clamp to the new hose assembly and replace the (1) screw holding it in place. Closed the lid of the washer, and now it is like the problm had never existed. (Very easy fix, 1 of 10 on difficulty scale).

Wouldn't rinse, spin, or pump out the water
  • Pauline from Kelseyville, CA
  • Really Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
Ordered the part online from PartSelect and it arrived Friday morning just 3 days later to my front door. Removed 2 screws, disconnected 2 wires, screwed the new part into place, plugged in the new wires and it still didn't work. Looks like my washer is just too old. So . . . I called PartSelect, explained everything. Three days later a f ull refund was in my bank account. Shop PartSelect with confidence. I will be back!
