Here\u2019s how to replace the steam generator in your laundry closet step by step.<\/span>\n\nWe recommend consulting your manufacturer's documentation or<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.appliancepartspros.com\/repair-help\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> contact us<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with any questions.<\/span><\/em>\r\n\r\n[lwptoc numeration=\"none\"]\r\n<p style=\"font-size:14.5px;margin:14px 0;font-family:system-ui,-apple-system,sans-serif\"><a href=\"#app-safety-notes\">Full safety notes below<\/a><\/p>\n\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why the Steam Generator Matters<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The steam generator heats water and converts it into steam on demand. This hot vapor is then circulated through the chamber to freshen and relax your clothes. When it fails, you may notice:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No steam output during cycles<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inconsistent or weak steam<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Error codes or warning lights<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Strange noises during operation<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Water leaking from inside the closet<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These symptoms usually mean the generator has become clogged, corroded, or electrically faulty and needs to be replaced.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tools and Parts You\u2019ll Need<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you begin, gather the following:<\/span>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Replacement steam generator that matches your model<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Phillips and flathead screwdrivers<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Needle-nose pliers<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wrench set<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Small towel or sponge (for any water spills)<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Clean cloths to wipe down parts<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be sure to purchase the correct replacement steam generator for your exact steam closet model.

If your model is hardwired, turn off the circuit breaker. Let the appliance cool completely if it has been used recently to avoid burns.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 1: Access the Steam Generator<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The steam generator is usually located behind a panel at the base or rear of the steam closet.<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unplug the unit and move it away from the wall, if needed, to access the back.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Remove any screws securing the back or lower panel.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Carefully lift off the panel and set it aside, keeping track of the screws.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You should now see the internal parts of the steam closet, including the water tank, electrical connections, and steam generator.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 2: Disconnect the Water Supply<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before removing the steam generator, disconnect the water line that feeds it.<\/span>\r\n<ol>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Locate the water hose connected to the steam generator.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Use a wrench or pliers to loosen the hose fitting.<\/span><\/li>\r\n \t<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have a towel handy to catch any residual water that drips out.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once disconnected, set the hose aside.<\/span>\r\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Step 3: Disconnect the Electrical Connections<\/span><\/h2>\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The steam generator will also have one or more electrical connectors.
