Some how the renters broke where the water lines connect to the washer
Unplug machine
Move machine out from wall
Removed 4 screws on back plate
Removed the 2 screws holding the assembly to washer
Pulled old unit out and reversed process to put back together
But when I went to test it would not drain tipped washer up and removed hose from motor and found a sock inside
Remove sock and washer runs great.
Just a note this website was very helpful in finding the right part with the exploded view of parts

Out of balance often
After loosening top screws on back ,snaps in front,no need to total remove top changing springs you have to reach below top of case with vice gripes and attach to spring rod about 8 inch down and lift up (tuff for 80 year old) tap down on plastic retainer, turn retainer 1/2 turn so hook will slip out ,now lower spring it will fall out of bottom retainer. Now for reinstall ,instead of vice gripes on the spring down inside case with no room , by hand take new (correct color) spring reach deep inside and install bottom into bottom retainer now take old spring run long end hook threw retainer hole in top case, hook to hook ,now you can pull new spring easy out the top about 3 inches and now vice gripes above case with enough room to reinstall top retainer remove gripes now only 3 more to go

Washer would not empty when it hot drain cycle
Once I determined it was the drain pump, (by taking off the drain hose and letting it empty by gravity, then running the spin cycle which worked ok) I ordered the part, got confirmation from PartSelect.com that it would fit my washer. I removed the old pump taking out the 6 screws needed to hold it and the cover in place and unplugged the electric connector. I installed the new pump from PartSelect.com using the same cover and 6 screws and electric connector. I reconnected the drain hose and the washer has worked perfectly since then!

Threads on an inlet valve deteriorated; couldn't tighten the hot hose.
Unplug the cord and shut off hot and cold water faucets.
headache avoidance: The male threads of the inlet valve are plastic. Gently turn the female hose ends onto them at the kitchen table with the eventual position in mind then tighten.
1. Remove 4 screws holding shiny metal backplate w/ 1/4" socket (easy)
2. Pry tabs loose, top of plate (easy).
3. Pull electric leads from 2 solenoids (easy).
4. Remove 2 long screws holding upper painted structure (easy).
5. Remove 2 screws holding valve in place (easy).
6. Tilt and slide the valve loose and pull it out (easy).
7. Replace valve and reverse steps 6-1.
n.b. no inside water tubes; water drips straight into tub
Also, an hour should be enough. I spent more time than needed guessing, dealing with a few issues, opening the machine again, starting over, etc.
ps. I guessed at the age.
