Once water filled up it would kick off and no action from the agitator..just a buzzing sound..
Following the instructions from the email received from this site was very helpful...given the washers were slightly different then mine in the videos ...it gave me a solid view point of what I would expect...my thrust spacer and the one I was sent was different in length and luckily it wasn't needed for my repair..extremely affordable prices made this no big deal at all..The inner seal was easily exchanged out and the agitator direction cogs were simply replaced..they were a bit wore down but nothing broke...and the reassemble was easy...biggest trouble I had were the clamps holding the switch box on the top they were pretty simple to remove by the instruction video and the direct drive coupler was exactly like the video instructed and was simply replaced..again nothing broke but extreme wear on the inner square was nearly wore to more of a circle shape which I believe was my problem. .The clamps holding the top back in place we're very tricky for me but I got them...plugged everything back up turned it on and the washer filled up and then kicked back into action just like new...I was very happy as well as was my wife to fixed what normally would have been 400 to 500$ repair bill or twice that for a new washer for 4 parts under 30$ and it's now just like new..Thank you !! I will definitely be ordering again from you if and when needed and also give a 100% satisfaction rating to any 1 needing parts..5stars!!!

Washer start to fill then stops i replaced the door switch this did not help
For model number 110-22102311
PartSelect logo
Hello Robert, thank you for your question. It sounds like it may be an issue with the valve, or the control board itself. There may be a hole or split in the pressure hose as well. This can cause the valve to shut off too soon. You may want to check that hose as well. To test the water valve go to this link to find the direction. https://www.partselect.com/Washer+test-water-valve+repair.htm If the valve is not faulty you may want to consider replacing the board. I hope this helps!

Replaced suspension rods< Machine still goes out of balance
For model number NTW4516FW2
PartSelect logo
Hello Jean, thank you for contacting us. Based on our research, we would recommend checking the leveling legs, part number PS11757131. Check whether the washer is properly leveled or not. If the issue still occurs, then the load is not evenly distributed. We hope this solves your problem!
