Wendee May 11, 2023 for Model Number 110.25132411 How do you remove a stripped bolt from a washing machine?
1 Answer Wendee, if the bolt head is stripped, a vice grip plier may be able to grab on just enough to loosen the bolt. If the threads are stripped, the bolt head would need to be removed so that the agitator plate can be lifted out of the way, allowing the threads to be grabbed with a vice grip and lifted up while unscrewing it. If this does not work, the gearcase and bolt would need to be replaced. Read More...
