Open your replacement washer vane part<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1428\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/2-300x177.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"177\" \/>\r\n\r\nFirst, open your replacement <a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/frigidaire-vane-134952702-ap4587299.html\">washer vane part<\/a>. The washer vane is key to the correct functioning of the laundry cycle. Typically, there are three washer vanes installed within the inner tub, which are used to turn and flatten clothing during the cycle.\u00a0 If the washer vane is damaged or breaks off, you\u2019ll need to first <a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/washer-parts.html\">buy a new one<\/a> on Appliance Parts Pros.com.\r\n<h3>2. Fully disassemble your washer<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1429\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/3-300x172.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"172\" \/>\r\n\r\nNext, you\u2019ll need to fully disassemble your washer to get to the inner basket, where the washer vanes are located. To disassemble your washer, check out our step-by-step guide. Keep in mind that this process takes about 30 minutes or so to complete.\u00a0 Once your washer is fully disassembled and the inner basket is free of the tub (as pictured above), you can start the washer vane repair.\r\n<h3>3. Set the inner basket on its side<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1430\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/4-300x165.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"165\" \/>\r\n\r\nTo get started, place the inner basket on its side. To prevent it from rolling around, set a wooden block underneath it.\u00a0 This set-up will allow you to replace the washer vane without any trouble.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1431\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/5-300x165.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"165\" \/>\r\n<h3>4. Lift up the four locking tabs<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/6-300x164.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"164\" \/>\r\n\r\nNext, use a flathead screwdriver to lift up the four locking tabs on the side of the basket where the washer vane is located within. Slowly pop the tabs up one by one, until all four are raised and it\u2019s now possible to slide out the washer vane inside the basket.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/7-300x156.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"156\" \/>\r\n<h3>5. Slide the washer vane out of the inner basket<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1434\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/8-300x163.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"163\" \/>\r\n\r\nNow you can reach inside the inner basket and slide the vane forward and up.\u00a0 If it\u2019s not easily sliding out, the locking tabs may not be properly raised. Check the tabs and then slide out the vane and remove it from the basket.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1435\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/9-300x169.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/>\r\n<h3>6. Install the new vane<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1436\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/10-300x159.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"159\" \/>\r\n\r\nNext, you can install the new vane. Take a careful look at the arrangement of the basket\u2019s six locking tabs before you try to replace it. The six tabs on the vane should match the six cutouts on the basket.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1437\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/11-300x139.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"139\" \/>\r\n\r\nGo ahead and reach into the inner basket with the washer vane and align the tabs with the basket cutouts. The center opening should match between the vane and the basket, too.\u00a0 Once it\u2019s properly aligned, slide it into place so that all six tabs can move down and lock, as pictured above.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1438\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/12-300x135.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"135\" \/>\r\n<h3>7. Bend the tabs back into the inner basket<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1439\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/13-300x154.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"154\" \/>\r\n\r\nNow that the washer vane is in place, bend all four locking tabs back into place. You will need to leverage the flathead screwdriver to manage this.\u00a0 Once all four tabs have locked the vane in place, you\u2019re all set.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1440\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/14-300x151.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"151\" \/>\r\n<h3>8. Remove the wooden block and lift the basket face up<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1441\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/15-300x160.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"160\" \/>\r\n\r\nGood work, you\u2019ve now installed the new vane! To get your washer in the right position to reassemble it, be sure to remove the wooden black and set the basket with the shaft facing upward. You\u2019re now ready to restore your washer to its original state!\r\n<h3>9. Fully reassemble your washer<\/h3>\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1442\" src=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/b\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/16-300x179.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"179\" \/>\r\n\r\nNow that you\u2019ve replaced the washer vane, you can follow our guide to reassembling your washer.
