Rene*moeller M Stafford , VA February 02, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Washer WPRE6150K2WT Noise when aggitating (scraping) unbalanced spin outs caused by the nylon cuopling wear down Replaced the Coupling Pulsator, and the Pulsator (short spindle in the center of the washer). The only problem that I encountered was how to remove the short spindle in the center of the washer...my fabric softer is in the center and you need to open that, grab the middle and loosen by turning left. Once that is out you will use a 7/16th socket and remove the entire agitator. Most of the videos show that you pull that straight up to remove - not the short one. There is still a screw to remove. After I reassembled I ensured that the washing machine was level. It took less then 10 minutes for tear apart and put together. Runs like it is brand new now. youtube video for this is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T6QcL4GbrQs AT 3:13 on the video. Saved Big Money and LOTS of time by doing this myself.

Joseph C Kinnelon , NJ July 21, 2020 Noisy knocking, some water on the floor The hub nut was impossible to remove with the spanner wrench, I had to cut it out by drilling into it and then chiseling the nut until it broke. When I finally got down to the hub bearing, it did not show any wear and it was also impossible to remove. The bearing housing appeared to be fused to the plastic tub. I felt I would do more damage in removing it and possibly damaging the tub which then would have to be replaced. There is no signs of water leaking it appears to be working fine at this point.
