Angelo December 02, 2012 for Model Number FWFB9200ES0 We too are having a mildew issue to the point where it sometimes leaves marks on the clothing. I believe this is caused because of the lack of drain holes or drain holes becoming cloged in the bellow. I was wondering if the replacement part # AP3869103 has more or larger drain holes. Also is this the right part number for my FWFB9200ES0? Second, how difficult is it to replace the bellow and are there any other parts I would need? If I take this apart and can not get it back together my wife will have me shopping for new matching washer dryer. Thank you!
1 Answer Hello Angelo, Yes, the 134515300 is the correct bellow kit for your unit and will have the instructions on how to install. Read More...
Matt November 28, 2012 for Model Number Sears 417.44152400 The bellows on my washer has a mildew or mold smell. It's terrible. I was considering replacing it, but some of these questions ask about removing, cleaning, and reinstalling it. I've tried the tablets that were recommended by someone at Sears. They made no difference in the smell. Is it possible to eliminate the odor through cleaning? If so, what's the best method?
1 Answer Hello Matt, You could run a clean cycle which is to run the unit through a normal wash with nothing in it. Use a cup of bleach and use the hottest temp setting. You may have to do this a couple of times depending on how bad smell is. You also want to make sure that when the unit is not in use to keep door cracked open so it can get air flow. Also after you are done with laundry make sure that you wipe out the bellow to keep water from sitting in it. Read More...

Mike June 27, 2012 My Frigidaire front loading washer has a mildew odor from the front bellows. I scrubbed it to reduce the odor and it became detached from the stainless drum and the spring fell out. QUESTION 1: Is it possible to reattach the bellow to the drum and insert the spring without detaching the bellows from the outer lip of the tub? QUESTION TWO: If I remove the clamp on the back of the bellows to detach it, is it glued down, if yes can it be re-glued, and with what kind of glue? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Mike. No, the front must be loose and the front panel removed to re-attach the bellow 134515300. Also, the bellow does not use glue it only uses clamps to secure it. Read More...
