Water would not empty from washer and lid switch kept clicking
The most important item I learned is the original lid switch is no longer available. It has been replaced with the entire Lid Switch Assembly. I read the new switch is magnetic versus the old which was mechanical. The kit comes with everything you will need (switch, wiring harness, lid lock bezel and instructions). I found the written instructions to not be the easiest to follow. However, I found someone had done a YouTube video on the replacement which made the repair easy (under 15 minutes). Although I did the repair by myself, a second person would be handy to hold the washer cover and controls while changing the wiring harness. When testing the new switch, remember to test during the Spin cycle.

Broken auger; could turn both ways.
Upper portion of auger spins on bottom portion so they need to be locked together with a screwdriver to twist off counter clockwise. Good instructions here: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Qr4GzTJBho0&vl=en. Someone needs to hold the tub while another uses the strap wrench to turn the auger counter clockwise. Should pop off with a bit of force. New one pops on easy.

Valve was leaking slowly while washer was off.
IF you do the same repair, SAVE THE LITTLE O-RING that is inside the old part where the temperature probe stick in (If that is indeed what it is). It's chrome in color. New part does NOT come with that O-ring

Plastic gear worn and belt stretched from usage
first disconnect the electric power cord. Disconnect the incoming water lines. Tip washer up or better yet flat on the floor where bottom is completely exposed. Remove bolts holding guard over belt and motor. remove bolts [2] holding clutch arm into plastic bearing, remove old belt will slide off pulley, remove bolt holding pulley to shaft, calls for a puller but I applied pulling pressure while working back and froth; no problem but could have been. chance clutch bearing and reverse the process to working order. I would recommend wearing cloth or vinyl gloves once the guards are removed for the pulley and old belt has a lubricant that is somewhat messy but cleans up easy.

Don’t do this, but we prop the washer lid open so it doesn’t get musty between use; we put a sock or something in there to prevent the striker fro closing. When a family member hops up on the washer to get to the highest shelf in the laundry closet it snaps! And the. The washer won’t function.
REALLY easy-
Just unscrewed the two screws with a Phillips, slid the old one out, the new one set in perfectly, and used the same screws to hold it in place. 2 minute task total.

leaking water inlet valve on washer
I watched a youtube video to see how others performed the repair. My washer was a little different than in the videos but the inlet valve was very easy to access once I pulled the washer out of it's "nook". I took off the back panel of the control "box" (4 screws). Then accessed the valve which was held in place with two screws. The screws were buried behind a few wires so they were a little difficult to access but not impossible. I did need to use my 1/4" box end wrench as my son had borrowed my socket set.
The people at PartsSelect were helpful in selecting the right part and the repair is working fine. My wife is happy.

belt was about an inch loose from 4 years of washing clothes
Disconnected power and water, laid it on its back, took off the belt, then took the new belt and put it on with a little difficulty putting the belt back on. really have to watch your fingers if you are not careful
