Tonya G Philadelphia , PA September 02, 2020 Appliance: General Electric Washer WJSR4160G1WW Agitation and spin cycle completely stopped I have a 14 year old GE washing machine that had been making a lot of noise while running but had eventually just stopped flat. The agitator and spin cycle would not run. I found this site and made excellent use of all the repair videos to study about my issue. I put in my machine model number and I Immediately was able to start honing in on what my problem could be from website advice about popular repair parts, stories others had shared about their similar machine issues and watching videos, I was overcome with a calmness assuring me that I COULD ACTUALLY DO THIS! I never repaired a machine (of any type) in my life. But after taking the front panel off the machine (which they show you how to do like everything else, step-by-step) and finding the broken belt laying on the bottom panel- I was able to decipher what my problem likely was and how to fix it. I took a few days and finally ordered all the parts I thought I needed. Order placed on Thursday night parts received on Sunday afternoon!! When my parts came, new belt, new belt installation tool, dampening straps and 2 different suspension rods, I reviewed repair videos for each part’s replacement and I was able to meticulously make each repair in a sensible order and within a sensible time frame. The trickiest repair was the belt replacement. Just listen and watch the video and understand that once you thread the belt around the belt replacement tool and secure it with a zip tie to the pulley on the left side that you do not have to try to stretch the belt around the pulley wheel, just calmly turn the pulley until the zip tie has gone all the way around the pulley wheel and has now returned to your vision, in front, on the right side. Expect some resistance but nothing like you trying to manually stretch the belt around the pulley (haha). Anyone can do these repairs. With new washing machines starting at $500 my repairs were way more affordable. THANKS appliancepartspros.com! Not only did you save me a bundle, but you helped me impress my wife with my handyman skills. Will definitely be shopping here again!!

Wendy G Defiance , OH June 13, 2016 Appliance: General Electric Washer WBSE3120B2WW 2003 ge washer worn parts Replacing the parts was fast and easy. Just needed a little WD-40 to help loosen the existing screws. Followed the video - unscrew control panel, remove screws holding lid to cabinet, remove front of machine cabinet, and replace the parts! That was it. The videos are excellent - the ones I have watched even tell you what kind & size of tool to use.

Elizabeth H Fayetteville , OH February 27, 2018 Appliance: General Electric Washer VBXR1060T4WB All 4 tub straps broke along with one rod & spring assembly which parts were no longer sold since 2001 I had to WD-40 all the old screws in the tub strap retainers since they were locked up. Took no time to replace with the new ones. The rod & spring assembly which is no longer sold, I had to drill a small hole in the top and put in a cotter key. It's working as good as new! I'm 62 yr old female with serious COPD, but managed to do it myself all in under 2 hrs. Thank you Appliance Part Pros for having what I needed in stock and an easy website! I had my parts in 2 days!

William P Davis , WV December 30, 2014 Bought laundromat equipment not serviced in many years Found schematics on APP and was able to troubleshoot and buy all replacement parts. Replaced leaking inlet hose, water valve and suspension hangers on two washers. Plus a broken top ring on one washer. Total was just over $100 to get two large top-loading GE washers back to washing clothes at $1.75 a load. Order one day; parts arrive the next. Might not be quite that fast depending where you're located but the service is very prompt. Have placed several orders with APP and have been completely satisfied each time. Read More...
