I had cross-threaded one of the water inlet valves when I changed water hoses. Even though it was not leaking, I decided to change out the valve. I had been through a water leak in the house years ago - not fun and very expensive.
It was very simple to change out. I first marked the hoses - hot and cold. Turned off the water supply and unplugged the washer. Disconnected the hoses to the valve, unscrewed the screws holding the valve inplace, drained hose into a bucket, removed clamp and hose from the outlet side of the valve, and removed 2 sets of wires (wrote down the wire color to match the hot/cold hose). To replace was just as simple in reverse order. I made sure to not cross-thread the hose this time. Took less than 15 minutes. If I can do it - anyone can. The part was at my house in just a few days of ordering - great instructions.

Spin cycle out of Balance - Machine walks from wall
Disconnect Power. Disconnect supply hoses. Open top by releasing top retainer clips with a thin blade or putty knife. Remove 2 sheet metal screws retaining front cover. Remove front cover. Lay a blanket on the floor and lay the machine over on its side leaving access to the front where the panel was just removed. Take belt off. Remove pump hose at bottom of drum. Prop up drum so it is centered in its normal position and not laying to one side. Do this near the lid end. Remove all centering springs - carefully. Drum and transmission assy will now come out through the front opening. Flip drum assy upside down with transmission up. Loosen the screws (do not remove completely - WARNING OF 200 LBS SPRING LOAD!) that clamp the snubber ring to the transmission. Remove the old snubber ring and replace with new. Be sure it is completely under the flange all the way around. Tighten the retaining ring screws. Reassemble all parts in reverse order. Done. Be sure to level the machine per owners manual instructions.

noisy out of balance during spin cycles
I followed the instructions that other posters suggested. The springs were the toughest part to remove and reinstall. Having my wife push the tub enabled me to use vice grips to get them back on. Read about the coins or washers to spread the springs too late... would have helped. Running a wash now and it's spinning great and no noise!

dispenser did not come with maching
All I had to do was take off the white cap on top of the spinner, place the dispenser cup in the hole and it was done! It works great even though there was no indication that my model would work with a dispenser. It was the best $3.95 I ever took a chance on!

Old hot water inlet hose had budge at both ends.
Turn water off at the inlet valve of hose you are replacing. Disconnect inlet hose the washer and let water drain out in a bucket. Then remove old hose. Replace new hose to inlet valve then washer . Use pliers to tighten both ends. Turn on water to check leaks at both ends of hose.

Bad Water Pump and clip holding front panel
Replacing the water pump only required the removal of the front Panel, removing and replacing the pump with socket set and then installing front panel with the new clip. Once this was complete the belt drive was installed on the bottom of the washer. Very easy fix.

no cold water and slow leak.
After opening up the washer I found major corrosion on the cold valve. The diagram from the website was very easy to locate and order the part. Shipping was very quick and am happy to say that was the issue and everything is working like normal. Very pleased and recommend to everyone.

Shrieking noise from washer, then motor seized.
I followed all the instructions from your site. It was very easy. Hardest part was the hose clamps. So it was very easy.
