Washer kept unbalancing, I found one of the shocks had lost it's pin. I replaced the three shock absorbers, springs and also water valves since the old ones were clogged. The top comes off very easily (two screws) to access the water valves. I used a hand truck to lay it on it's side and with the back removed I had access to everything without taking the front off. through the back and large access hole in the bottom, a major time saver.

Once I had the washer disassembled and the tub & drum out I determined that bearing seal had failed and water had started to... Read more

I found other posts on AppliancePartsPros.com to be helpful. Most people and pros indicated that it was the Cold Water intake valve which has 4 solenoids on it. I watched the video to replace the Hot Water valve which is right next to it. My washer opened differently than the one in the video but it was not hard to figure out. Tools needed; Philips screwdriver and pair of regular pliers. I took the screws off of the small panel on top on the back of the washer. This allowed the control... Read more

I found your tutorial, watched it a couple of times and decided I could do this! I got online and had a chat with your pro. I was a little disappointed to hear that my model required complete tub assembly, as the bearings didn't come separate. Had a heck of a time getting the inner tub unstuck! Probably saved me the heart ache of pounding out the bearings for buying the whole assembly, but re-assembly went great with NO parts leftover. Washer runs great, nice and quiet. Even the neighbors... Read more
