11081432510 Kenmore Washer Dryer Combo - Instructions

I identified the correct catch of the three that were included in the package by matching its number to that on the old catch that I had pried out of the door using a flat screwdriver. I centered the new catch over the square hole in the door and pressed it into place. Then I used some needle-nose pliers to twist and remove the metal pin that fits into the catch from the main dryer housing. I replaced that with the new piece included in the kit, gently tapping it into place with a hammer. The repair complete, the door worked perfectly. Thanks for your help and for the speedy delivery of the kit.

The instructional video that was attached with the part I purchased was spot on with very simple instructions. The inlet valve came with a metal bracket that was not needed for my model, so just tossed it. Was completed with replacement in about 30 minutes with help from my aspiring handywoman wife (would have taken 15 minutes without her)

Watched the video on the website... and did what it said to do. It was VERY helpful... It did not fix the problem... so now I'm on to the next possible solution. Also, provided by the website. The valve was the problem 85% of the time. The water level switch is the problem 10% of the time. The water level switch is what I ordered next.
Ordering is EASY and delivery is fast with available tracking of the shipment. Very nice...! -Eddie Campbell

EXACTLY as your video demonstrated.

The tough part was replacing the front cabinet.
I did consult the video for help on replacing the clutch spring.
Thank you for that bit.

I admit to taking too much apart, most of the cabinet back can be left alone.
Some of the plastic wire keepers/routers suffered, as well as the console hinges.

The newly reassembled washer works without a hitch, and truely it took me about 4 hours over several days to dissamble and reassemble.
It is louder in the audible range than before, but very serviceale for another 20 years, saints willing.

First off, I unplugged the AC cord and disconnected the Hot and Cold water hoses. I partially removed the back of the washer with a screwdriver. There were two screws holding the control panel in place and once they were removed it simply fell forward onto the top of the machine. That allowed me to pull the back plate free and remove the old water inlet valve. I had to first disconnect the two AC leads from the valve along with the small hose that supplies water to the tub. The small hose had a compression clamp on it that came off with pliers. After removing the two screws that secured the valve to the back of the machine the old valve simply came out. Insallation was the reverse. I will add that when removing the controll panel there are two S shaped clips (one either side of the panel) that need to be removed using a screw driver. Be careful not to push too hard as they may fall into the machine. I also replaced both the Hot and Cold wataer hoses. All in all it was a very easy repair. I read and followed the instructions of others that posted their experience right here which was a HUGE help-thanks everyone and thanks to Part Select for the prompt delivery. I orderd the part on a Sunday and received it on Tuesday-how awesome is that?!

I called a repairman, who diagnosed the problem as a faulty leaf switch in the lid assembly -- the little rod on the lid that normally would depress the switch was working fine, but the switch was not closing. At my direction, he bridged the wires from the switch as a test, and it worked fine. So I ordered a new switch from you guys and swapped the new one out with the old one. Two flat screws to remove the slanted top panel, and at the rear of the panel are two hex-top screws holding the lid assembly on. Undo the hex-top screws, lift off the lid assembly, unplug the interlock between the washing machine power and the lid, and find a clean place to lay the lid assembly. Replacing the switch is a snap -- the part you sold came with its own wiring, and all it takes is take the old part out and put the new part in. Easy peasy. Getting the lid assembly back takes a little work because the fasteners are a little tricky to position correctly -- they will fall off the lid assembly and repositioning them may involve a bit of trial and error -- but once it is properly positioned, it takes a total of six screws and you're done. Two for the switch (Philips), two hex heads to fasten the lid assembly to the washer chassis, two to button up the front access panel.. A caution -- make sure the machine is unplugged when you do the repair, or else the washing machine may cycle into a spin cycle when you plug the interface back in and surprise you.

Watched the video and followed the instructions. Everything went smoothly and the repair was done in under 15 minutes, less time than it took to mop up the water when it overflowed telling me that there was a problem.

Installed part, now it works great!

Removed door gasket that was on the door. Replaced with newer gasket (was a tad bit too big, so it slipped off as well.) Added some electrical tape to hold it on. Works like a charm.

my hany man did it....

We watched a video on YouTube; it was very easy . We had to use the mounting bracket.

Removed screws from top control panel. Tilted panel back. Unsnapped two retaining clips and pulled entire washer cover forward. Turned off water and uplugged washer. Disconnected hot and cold water supply. Disconnected supply tube from water inlet valve. Disconnected electrical hook-ups to water inlet valve. Removed water inletvalve. Installed new valve being careful to use new mounting plate supplied and making sure screw holes line up correctly. Re-connected all disconnects and it works like new!

all that was required was to push the catch into the slot notools needed.

Watch the video before I received the part. Made it very simple to replace and which screws to take out.
