The new drawer came and I took out the the detergent despensor piece from the old drawer and placed it in the new drawer and put the new drawer back into the washer. Now the front of the washer is complete. Good as new. Part also arrived in a timely manor too. Very pleased

Would not pump out water, F21 codes checked and cleared all hoses and trap before pump still no luck.
Well first of all when you buy this washer, the salesperson should tell you about checking the drain catch (ahead of the pump) and emptying out whatever get's caught in there. Never had a clue until it wouldn't work, then did a search on the internet, and darn if I didn't find specific instructions on how to open and clean out. Mine was packed full of hair pins, small change, lint, buttons, etc, all kinds of stuff. Guessing that is why the pump went out in the first place, it was so packed full that the pump could not draw any water through. But even after I cleaned it out, the pump was already shot. So called a service man, he said the pump would cost me around $200, then his labor to put it in, plus a $68 service call to just come and look at it, and $68 when he comes back to replace it. So I searched the internet for how to replace, came up with a very detailed You Tube video on how to replace Whirlpool Duet Pump. So ordered my pump from PartsSelect, just over $100, and replaced it myself. Super easy, only about 5 minutes. Thanks! —A very determined housewife!

Drain Pump Stopped working
Took of the panel, unscrewed the old drain, screwed the new drain in. Very very simple to do! The first part I received leaked, I called customer service and they gave me a refund and express shipped a new part - no questions asked. Very good customer service!

buzzing noise water not draining
unplug washer from outlet carefully tilt back to get at underside of washer remove bottom panel. pump location lower right front. remove two hoses from back using pliers keep note on hose location. remove two bolts on underside of machine slide pump to the right to release from rubber holders to install reverse the process also good idea to use the new hose clamps that come with your new pump and the rubber mounts if they are included

other than needing a new type of screw driver (not philips or flat head, but rather a starfish looking thing), the replacement was simple. took 5 minutes (after finding the correct driver)

My washer would not drain, weird noises, etc.
This part worked great! Completely fixed all the problems that I had with my washer. A bit hard to actually place it in(pliers are necessary) but otherwise very easy to install.

The bottom conter balance broke in half.
Had my appliance man do it. It was the first one he had ever done in 20 years of working on Whirlpool. It was quick. The parts I received from you were cheaper than his supplier. Needless to say that made me very happy!

Leaking water in tub when not in use.
Received water valve in three days, remove top on washer, removed old part and replaced valve with new one, real easy fix, any one could do this. PartSelect confirmed this was the problem and part I needed.
