Ge WH08X10064 Gasket OEM Part

There are two youtube videos (search GE front load washer gasket replacement) that I used to guide me. The videos do not depict the same model or part number but they were very helpful. It is not the easiest home project I've done but not the most difficult either. Essentially you take the top off the washer, next the control panel, then the door spring, then the front panel, then the gasket spring. The hardest part is lining the gasket back on. A little detergent helps it slide on better. Then put everything back on in reverse order.

Step 1: Watch DIY videos to learn how to do it. I am glad I did as you have to take the top cover off first, then the soap dispenser out, then the control panel off, then the front panel/door off, then the door latch off to actually start replacing the bellow. Watching the DIY video save me so much time before I even got started. I also had one extra initial step to remove the drier that site on top of my washer, to get the washer top lid off. Followed the steps in the videos and the old bellow was removed without incident. The most time consuming install of the new bellow was ensuring both the rear and then the front seal were well seated before re-installing the wire clamps. l gave up trying to do it myself and got some help to hold the bellow in place as I set the seals all the way around. Be sure to take time and get these fully set, else you'll have to take it all apart to do it over again, My only recommendation IF your drier sits on top of the washer is to consider having a replacement air dryer exhaust duct and metal tape handy as mine was torn during the removal process. If you don't need it, you can always return it next time in town. Cheers
