Tim B Climax , MI June 07, 2015 Lg washing machine drum bearings bad after 11 years I watched the video and and we started tearing the old girl apart. We labeled bags and put bolts and screw in proper bags. took some pictures as a reference when we put this back together when all new parts arrive in a few days, "getting old can't remember like I used to" Found out needed some seals as well as new bearings. We took everything apart and cleaned it, found some slim like substance all over the outer drum and in drain hoses. We found the drain hose with lots of slim and dirt in it and that had been causing trouble codes to come on about every time we used it. It took about 3 hours to tear apart and clean up unit. When parts arrived it took about 2 hours to assemble and get running. Unit runs and sounds like new again, no trouble codes any more. If you have some mechanical ability and watch the video you can do this and save big money. 2 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 2+ hours
