AAV8000AJW Admiral Washer - Instructions

used putty knife to to raise the top, took out two screws, replaced parts , then closed the top.

Changing the hinge was not difficult, but here's a hint: the top of the washer raises up if you pry it with a big screwdriver- be sure to wrap the screwdriver in a cloth so as not to scratch the appliance. Doing it this way makes it easy to access the retaining screws. You can push the wash tub to one side and reach the screws from underneath, but they're a tight fit and doing it that way is difficult. Overall a pretty easy repair and I'm only moderately handy.

I raised the top of the washing machine per video instructions, removed the screws, replaced broken hinges with the new ones. It was simple as that.

Removed the broken part of the auger, unscrewed the part still connected, and screwed on the new auger. Voila!

Easy repair - with the use of a phillips screwdriver, simply remove the old device and replace with the new

Replaced the hose. two clamps and retainers. very basic repair

I used the putty knife to release the spring clips on the machine lid. They are about 3" in from the side of the machine. Then I lifted the top of the washer up holding the lid in place. I then used a screw driver (torx) to remove the hinge from the bottom of the washer top. The lid should come right off. Then I the removed the broken hinge pins from the back of the lid with a screwdriver and replaced with the new parts. There is a little tab that the pin fits in the lid to assure you have the pin installed correctly. Then I slid the hinge back on the pin and reversed the process reinstalling the hinges and closing the top of the machine over the spring clips and your done. Very easy repair that I completed in less than 15 minutes.

Took off back cover an belt replaced part

I followed your video instructions. Very good video.

I followed the instructions in the video on the parts select web site. It was very easy, and went exactly as shown on the video. The part was ~$80. I am sure a repair person would have charged me ~$200 for the repair.

1. Remove 1 screw holding each of 2 Hinges - use T15 driver. 2. Push tub to one side to get access to each screw from underside. 3. remove & replace broken Hinge Pin from Lid with T15 driver. 4. Drive broken pin out of the Hinge with a punch & hammer. 5. Install new Hinge Pin to Lid. 6. Add a little Vaseline to Hinge Pin & slide Hinge Pin into Hinge. 7. Line up Hinges to holes & re-install both Hinges with Lid. Have somebody help hold the Lid in a slight angle will make re-installation easier.

raised the top of the washer to get at the front panel screws. Removed the front panel. Removed the cracked hose and installed the new one. Reinstalled the front and top panels.

I had my boyfriend take the lid off ,then he took off the two old hinges,one was broken,and the he replaced both lid hinges,daving the good one. it was very simple and quick for him.

I changed the piece easily

The existing plastic valve is different in size and shape from the replacement part. The existing plastic valve is mounted to a metal mounting braket with bunch of screws. New replacement part has no mounting braket and can't be mounted to the old mounting braket. The old mounting bracket had 2 screws which are used to mount it to the washing machine body. The new valve has only 1 mounting hole which correspondes to a different mounting hole on the body of the washing machine. The new braket is designed to mount directly to the body of the machine. I removed one of the many screws on the old valve /mount braket and used it to mount the new valve directly to the body of the machine.
