Zoe March 08, 2015 for Model Number WFW8400TW03 I bought a new bellow - 8540952 for my whirlpool duet. The bellow has a tab on the top and 3 small holes that look like ports at the bottom at the place where it attaches to the tube first when replacing. There is no dispenser hole.. Which is the top of the bellow and which is the bottom please. thanks
1 Answer Zoe, The spot where the 3 holes are located would be the bottom of the bellow and there would be a slot for the dispenser on the other side which would be the top. Read More...
Steve Adams November 30, 2014 for Model Number Kenmore 100.44921300 HE/3T My model has a hose going from the soap dispenser through the top of the boot. The video here does not speak to that(although the hole was present in the video). Will the proper boot number include the hole and grommet looking device to hold the hose in ? I bought a "Whirlpool W10111435 Bellow " on-line and while it fit, it did not include the top hole. Do you have the proper part I should use ? Thank you, Steve Adams
1 Answer Steve, The part number that you will need for your model Kenmore is WP8181850 and should have the opening for the dispenser hose. Read More...
Lacy October 23, 2013 for Model Number GHW9100LW1 We have water pouring out of the bottom of the washer. When we take the kick panel off, the water is coming from behind the concrete part and runs down the back side of the concrete. The bellow is sealed well in the front and back and does not appear to have any rips/holes. Could this mean the bellow needs replaced? Is there something else it could be? Thank you for any guidance!
1 Answer Hello Lacy. Look and see if the bellow has come off and if not, and the bellow is leaking, you will need to replace the bellow. Read More...
Marv June 19, 2013 for Model Number Kenmore 110.44934200 In your video you do not address the the little hole on the bellows top-A small tube enters this hole which allows some water flow-if you do not connect this inside the the bellows you will have a water leak. With that said I have replaced by bellows 2 x times now and have a leak on the hinge side which I cannot locate--Can you give any thoughts.I thought it may have been from the fill tube but canot confirm. Any help would be appreciated
1 Answer Hello Marv. Without being there to look, we can not determine where the leak is at. However, you will need to check around the dispenser area and see if the leak may be coming from there. Read More...
Diy Girl May 19, 2013 for Model Number whirlpool duet washer Hi I just changed the front bellow tube on my washing machine and I put the machine back together. When I attempted to do a wash to check it the machine would make a clicking sound and the door wouldnt open. What is the problem and how can I get the door to open.
1 Answer DIY Girl, " To Manually unlock the door lock system: 1. Unplug the power cord from the outlet. 2. Remove the lower toe panel. 3. Reach up along the inside of the front panel and locate the bottom of the door latch assembly. 4. Located on the bottom of the door latch assembly is a tear-drop shaped tab. 5. Gently pull the tab down about ¼” or until a click is heard. 6. The door may now be opened." once the door is opened, you'll need to check that the bellows is properly installed and the retainer wire and spring are properly seated in place. There is also the possibility that the new bellow is causing tension on the latch assembly and not allowing the latch to operate. You may want to close the door, and leave it closed for a day or so to allow the seal to collapse or conform to the door and opening, after you recheck the installation. Read More...

Mony O. February 22, 2013 for Model Number mAH5500BWW How do I reinstall the spring and cable on a door boot that I just purchased from you and the spring is impossible to strech.
1 Answer Hello Mony. These are very hard to do, but you will use 2 pairs of needle nose pliers and stretch the spring until you can hook it into the loop. Again, these are very hard to install onto the unit. If you have a friend to help, it does make the job easier with 2 people. Read More...
