Worked like a champ!!!!!

Had wife balance washer on front edge while I accessed working parts from bottom of washer. Removed drive belt and turned agitator pulley, transmission pulley and drain pump pulley by hand. Drain pulley hard to turn and shaft had play in it. Ordered new drain pump and replaced upon receipt. Very few fasteners to remove and replace pump assembly. Drive belt was easy to remove and replace. Recommend also replacing drive belt on a washer this old.

Unplugged electrical plug. Disconnected water and drain hoses. Turned washer on front side. Removed old belt from bottom of washer. Removed pump access panel. Removed old pump. Installed new pump. Torqued pump mounting screws 1/4 turn with socket wrench. Installed new belt. Put on pump access panel. Hand tested motion of belt and pulleys for smooth travel. Put drain hose on. Turned washer in the upright position. Reconnected water hoses. Washer works like new.

Removed back plate, tilted up washer removed pump removed belt. Then replace pump and then replaced belt

I ordered the replacement pump assembly (water pump)for my Atlantis model maytag washer, removed the old one, installed the new one and works like a charm. The only difficulty I had was trying to figure out how to remove the cover on the front of the washer, to remove the clips, it slid side to side instead of popping out, found the instructions on-line, NO instructions came with the pump but if you have any common sense when it comes to repairs it was easy to remove and install the new part.

I pulled the top ofthe washer up, I disconnected the cold and hot water hoses, took the 2 bolts off with a socket and pulled the water valve from the top. I used the pliers to take the pressure ring off and pulled over flow hose off. I pulled the four wires off with pliers. Put the new water valve in reverse order...easy.

First I am a woman and was able to do it, and if I can do it anyone should be able to do this. The service call alone was 75.00, and the belt was 23.00 with shipping. First we tilted the washer at a 45 degree angle and I removed the belt, and just rolled the newer one on the track. That was it and I was done. My washer now purrs like a kitten love it. And Part Select sent out my part and I recieved it next day, thank you for wonderful service that kind of service is hard to find. <3

pulled out the washing machine that was the hard part, tilted it back checked too make sure everything spun by hand just to see if that was reason for the belt to snap but everything spun by hand nice and smoothly poped on the drive belt and everything works fine back in business.

took off back small metal panel, tilted washer front side down, easy to put into place after removing old part

Because I live alone, the washer is very heavy so I just used some sliding robots under the legs of washer so I could slide it out from the wall by myslef after removing the small plate in the back to accfess the water pump I used the nut driver to remove the 3 screws holding the pump in place, but I used the pliers to remove the 2 water hoses first then I mounted the water pump back into place, installed both hoses again then I tilted it back against the wall while re installing the belt then I pushed it back against the wall and removed the sliders so I could make sure it was back level this was a very easy repair even if you never fixed any thing before the belt replacement was even more simple to replace because the motor is springloaded so you just had to pull on it enough to remove it from the pulleys

I placed the washer on a couple of work-horses so I could have access to the belt underneath. Then I used my nutdriver to removed the lower back panel. Disconnected both of the hoses, and removed the pump with my nutdrivers. Placed the new pump in place, placed the belt back on the pump's pully, tightened down the pump. I then plugged in the washer and put a little water in the washer to test that everything was working. After confirming that everything worked, I replaced the lower back panel and put the washer back in business. 30 minutes from beginning to end ... and a good time was had by all.

Spoke with a trusted repair man, described the problem best as I could. I smelled a burning rubber smell. Got on Internet for troubleshooting problems, 77% likely a drive belt. BINGO! Ordered a new belt, took old one off, cleaned the pulley ( it had burnt rubber stuck on it, difficult to remove) lightly sanded pulley just so it would be really smooth. replaced belt. Magic, it worked. I am no repair woman, but carefully listening and explaining helped. Oh, belt is under the very bottom of machine. Very easy to get to, just tilt back and lodge at an angle and make sure it doesn't move.

I first opoen the front panel of the washer. That was a bit tricky. Had to slide a thin blade between the top of the washer and the front panel, pushed in to release the "clamp" and gently raise the top, it hinges on the back.
The rest was undoing three bolts, refit the new pump and put the belt back on.
The part cost me less then $65.00.
The repair estimate by the local repair man was $ 250.00.
I am very happy.

Thank you PartSelect.
