Wife noticed water pooling around the washing machine
Unplug the washing machine. There are electrical components that can injure or kill you. Using a screw driver inserted just below the lid of the washer in the front, there are two (2) spring clips that you push on to release. Then the front of the washer tilts down and you remove it and set aside.
On the bottom right you will see the flexible, convoluted rubber hose connecting from the pump to the washer tub. Two (2) clamps hold the hose on. Remove the two clamps, install the new hose and re-install the clamps. Re-install the front panel and push into place, allowing clips to lock into the front panel.

The plastic on the back of the knob that allows for engagement with the washing machine broke off. I replaced the knob and replaced the clip that hold it in place. Nothing to it. The part came within two days.
I just removed the clip and took off the old knob. I than put the new one on and replaced the clip.

Washing Machine Leaky Hose
I replaced the hose between the tub and the pump. The only difficulty came with the accessibility of the problem area. I just pulled off the front panel of the machine and used a screwdriver and pliers to loosen the attachments and put the new hose in place.

Pump was making grinding noise
Popped off the front of the washer, removed old pump by disconnecting 2 hoses, 2 screws and power. Pump new pump in, reconnected everything. Done. Quite possibly the easiest repair ever!

broken agitator
I pulled on the bottom edges of the agitator, like the video said, until my fingers were numb. Finally, after I got aggravated, I beat the old agitator into a hundred pieces with a hammer and chisel. Then I slid the new agitator into place and gently tapped on the top of it. It snapped into place and has worked like a new one every since.

Washer wouldn't spin
I followed the video from the website to install the lid switch. Worked like a charm. Great instructions. You do need to supply your own butt splice connectors .

washer wouldn't spun
The repair would have gone well, however partselect sent me the wrong part. Instead of a washer belt, they sent me a door seal to what looks like a refrigerator

Very loud noise when washer was in spin cycle
Followed video on You tube that showed step by step how to compete repair.
The machine used in video was brand new and there was no corrosion on any parts so disassembly was much easier in video than on 9 year old machine.
Also reinstalling drive belt was a little tedious but overall job very straightforward and resulted in positive improvements in performance and greatly reduced noise levels.

Timer shaft wears out so knob can not turn to desired cycle
All can be done from front but enough access to rear is needed just to get to 3 screws.
First remove knobs (one has a plastic hair pin keeper. remove with needle nose pliers. Then remove outer ring knob by prying gently.
Remove 3 screws in back to release front panel. Slide panel an inch to the right to release the plastic tabs. Panel lays down. One screw holds the timer. Remove then turn timer 1/8 turn to release from plastic ears. Unplug the one multiple conductor plug. (Pry to start with screwdriver but note the lock latch, pry it slightly to release).
Mount new timer by reversing above. The kit had a cardboard guard which didn't fit but we mounted slightly below timer and it served whatever purpose it had. (Original had none)
Plug the cable (fits the same as old timer). Replace panel but matchng those plastic slots and move an inch to the left to lock in place. Put panel back into position but don't put 3 screws in until tested. Push on knob, Put keeper hairpin onto knob and push it on. (We ordered new knob online, plastic wears). Try part of a cycle just to see if anything happens. A few seconds is enough. Replace back 3 screws. Brag to wife or hubby or anyone who will listen.

Agitator free spins
This was one easy job and saved me money by doing it myself, First I unplugged the washer for safety, then I removed the Agitator by grabbing the base of the agitator with both hands and pulling up I set the agitator a side and removed the one bolt holding the agitator coupling in place. the replacement coupling was a little tight when I replaced it due to it being new, (make sure the coupling is fully seated before installing the bolt) reinstalled the agitator plugged the washer back in and tested repair worked flawlessly thanks partselect

Washer wouldn’t agitate.
Watched a how to video. Pulled the agitator. Determined that the agitator coupling was worn out. Matched the old agitator coupling to new replacement one. Ordered it. Pushed the new agitator coupling onto the fitting. Secured it with the old bolt. Replaced the agitator. Repaired.
