Sam March 18, 2012 for Model Number Mah5500b I replaced the bearings in my washer but there wasn't a snap in retainer clip included for the rear bearing so I finished the installation without it. How important is the clip? Am I gonna have problems without it? Every site I searched had that part discontinued.
1 Answer Hello Sam. You need to use the old snap ring when you install the bearings in the washer. If the ring was bad, then it is best to replace the outer tub assembly 22004465. Hope this helps. Read More...
Sam P. March 09, 2012 for Model Number mah5500B I have the same issue as Ed does above where the belt is actually cutting into the drum. I bought a new belt and it just runs off the pulley after I spin it 1 rotation. I noticed that the Pulley wheel is actually flexing from the tension on the belt and I have the tension as low as it can go. Is that part supposed to be able to flex at all or is mine just worn out?? Laundry is piling up! A solution would be greatly appreciated.
1 Answer Hi Sam. Is the pulley inner splines completely worn out part # 22002315? Rotate the inner basket and make sure the rear bearing is not grinding. This will cock the plane of the basket and allow the spinner pulley to wear into the basket.The rear basket w/ bearing is part # 22004465. The inner basket spinner is part # W10181639. You will need to replace the spinner nut part # WP22003937 and washer part # WP22003936. Let us know how to help you further. Thank You. Read More...
Pierce September 12, 2011 for Model Number MAH4000AWQ Only in the spin cycle, the washer makes a loud roaring noise. When the spin cycle completes, the noise stops. I'm thinking it's the spin pulley. Would repalceing the pulley be the way to go?
1 Answer Hello Pierce. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the tub bearings are bad and you will need to replace the tub assembly 22004465. Hope this helps. Read More...
Dado A. July 08, 2011 for Model Number mah3000aww Everytime I tightened the bolt for the spinner pulley, the tub gets tight and it does not spin freely. I loosen the bolt and it is still tight. I took out the bolt and remoned the spinner pulley and turn the tub by hand and still tight. When I pound the shaft where the bolt screw in with a rubber mallet and spin it with my hand and it spins freely. When I put the spinner pulley back and tighten the bolt just enough so that the pulley doesn't have any play and tub gets tight again. Although I loosened up the bolt in order for it to spin freely again. By removing the pulley and pound on the shaft again then it moves freely. Is there something missing?
1 Answer Hello Dado. Based on the information you provided, it sounds like the bearings are bad and will need to be replaced. You will need to replace the outer tub assembly 22004465. Hope this helps. Read More...
Ed June 28, 2011 for Model Number mah21pdaww Hello, I have the same problem described above, but my belt actually is cutting into the drum itself. In other words the belt is rubbing to the container and is cutting it. Also the belt is burned out due to the rubbing. Any suggestions, Thank you. Ed.
1 Answer Hello Ed. You will need to check and see if the tub bearings WP22003441 WP22002934 are bad and causing the belt to slip. If so, you will need to replace the tub bearings. If the tub is damaged , you may need to replace the tub assembly 22004465. It comes with the bearings you will need. For the belt you will need to order 12001788. Hope this helps. Read More...
Tim S. April 21, 2011 for Model Number neptune mah4000aww Does the pulley/spinner have ribs on it to prevent belt slippage? If so, I need one, as the one I have only has a tiny rib left.
1 Answer Hello Tim. The pulley spinner is a smooth surface. The belt is held on by tension between the motor and the spinner. If you belt keeps coming off, you will need to see if the bearing is bad in the outer tub, allowing the spinner to wobble and slip the belt. Hope this helps. Read More...
Jana March 30, 2011 for Model Number mah5500bww What is keeping belt in place and preventing from sliping off the pulley?
1 Answer Hello Jana. The tension on the belt prevents it from coming off the spinner. If your having problems with the belt coming off, you will need to see if the spinner is bad, or the tub bearing. Hope this helps. Read More...
