raised front of machine about 6 inchs bigest pain is getting water out after that its easy.open drain just a bit other wise it will pour out all over about 4 pots worth if its full

This repair is something even the most casual DIY'er could accomplish. What made this even easier for me was the fact that my washer was on a pedestal so accessing the 1/4" screws were extremely easy. There is no need to tilt or lift the washer. Just open the drawer and all three screws are visible. It also made draining the water out of the washer very convenient. The video perfectly describes how to accomplish the repair and allowed me to diagnose the problem by taking off the panel, opening the trap door and allowing the water to drain into a small trashcan until all the water is removed. I could physically see that the impeller was detached from the motor and found the culprit that caused the problem - a small vile of eye drops... From there, ordered the pump, two days later, replaced it with the new and I swear the new pump must be stronger than the original because towels come out near dry after a spin cycle. Very satisfying repair!

Checked for 120 V AC at pump connector. It was present . Pump was hot. Ordered new pump. Changing the pump is a piece of cake. Just tilt machine back and rest on a brick. Remove 3 5/16th screws . Disconnect 2 hoses and 1 plug. Took 10 minutes tops. Back in business.

I followed the video that accompanied the parts order confirmation. The replacement of the two parts, bellows and hose, were pretty straightforward. The job took a little less than an hour with little aggregation.

Only needed a pair of pliers for the clamps on the hoses connected to the pump. Removed the old pump ( no tools needed) and reinstalled the hoses. Works like a charm!

Removed top and front lower panels remove door panel.Remove ring from boot seal don’t damage seal.Replace hose,reassemble.Job is a lot easier if you purchase tool to re-install door ring seal.Tool is available from several sites on the net.

Much easier than I thought. Watched the video a few times.The front control panel gave me a little fight which the video edited that part out And the spring clamp reinstall took the most time.There must be a tool for that??

Used suggestions on list - water to lubricate bellows and an extra hand to secure the bellows. Biggest challenge was seating the bellow that attaches to the rim of the outer tub. After getting the bellow lip seated the rest was fairly easy including the bellow seat that secures to the outer door assembly. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that the bellow was the problem even though the symptoms - leaking under the door - was the same as noted on the list of problems. Had to order the dispenser-to-tub hose as that looks to be the problem (had to contort to follow the leak all the way up to the hose).

Watched the videos which were key! Thanks Parts Select! Replaced Bellows and dispenser hose. Cleaned all areas really well where new hose and bellows attached. Ran the washer in "clean washer mode" twice. Not a drop leaking. Thank you!

First unplug the washer and turn water off..Next take off back of the washer ( I used a socket set). Then underneath the front load tub, take that panel off to get to the pump (there are 3 screws in the front panel). Then get a towel put it underneath the water pump. Next take your pliers and squeeze the tab holding the end of the drain hose where it connects to the pump, Slide the clip up on the pump connection, pull off hose ,make sure your towel is underneath the end of the hose.Next reach your hand through the back of the washer and squeeze the plastic holder w[th your hand to release the hose. Then pull old hose out and replace it the the new hose. Just reverse the steps to put it in..

I basically just followed the directions in the Parts Select video. The only thing that was a little difficult was getting the new belt to feed onto the drum pulley, but after a couple of tries I was able to get it on. I'm glad the video mentioned this might be a little difficult or I might have thought I was doing something wrong.

Pretty straight forward , It is a tight work are especially laying on your stomach. To make installation easier I recommend buying a 3-4 inch hose clamp instead of trying to use the old pinch style clamp. You will only need a zip tie if you reuse the existing clamps. remember to remove the plastic ball from the old rubber hose into the new hose.

Followed the video except to use clamps to hold the Bellow To Front Panel Clamp in place while I worked the clamp around the from of the Bellow. I used a plastic pry tool in place of the suggested screw driver to pry the control panel off.

I simply followed the video instructions which was presented very clear and the video shots was on point

Replaced drain hose
