noise while spinning
had to completely disasemble whole washer drum and mechanical components to remove upper bearing on transmission,the drum hub was corroded on the shaft. I had to use a gear puller and a propane torch to get the hub off upper shaft of the transmission. then press the bearings in the respective sheet metal supports. reassembly was alot easier than taking it apart. Not a job for an average homeowner. It would not have been repaired without the wheel puller. all the seals were reusable A week and a half of use later no leaks and works great

screw loss in Drive Bell
Screw broke lose in agitator from drive bell stripped (plastic) for transmission gear. Received new Drive Bell and had to lightly cut out old from Agitator housing with saws all, cleaned years of soap build up on steel spline with wire grinder, lubed the Drive Bell inter and pounded on to spline gear with rubber mallet, I thought a bit too much force but what the heck I landed to the same bearing point as before. Work Out Great.

The cold water was barely filling the tub of the washer
First I removed 2 screws that hold the element in place. I then pulled the element out about 3 inches and disconnected the two wires. I connected the new value and put it back in place. I then put the screws back in place.
This was very easy and it solved my problem
Thanks a lot

Leak from seal on pump
This washer was "professionally" repaired six months ago....that being said, I found two of the three Torx screws holding the pump to the motor to be lying inside the cabinet. This allowed the pump to move and wallow out the seal. Replaced the pump and replaced the screws correctly. No leaks, no problems. Pump is an exact replacement from PartSelect and ease of installation was no problem. Would suggest if you are going to replace the pump, order the three screws and replace them too.

Broken prong
I began by removing the two screws at the lower part of the front panel. After removing the panel I was able to access and remove the broken switch which was located on the front panel. I popped out the old switch and replaced it with the new one, reattached the wires and put the front panel on and the jod was done.

Pump leaking. Replaced aging belt.
Removed front cover of machine. Removed motor/pump assembly which was held in by four (4) bolts. At the same time removed belt from transmission pulley. Removed pump assembly from motor, held in by three (3) torx fasteners. Before installing new pump installed new belt on motor assembly. While setting the motor/assembly in place threaded belt around transmission pulley. Fastened motor/pump assembly. Very easy process!
