Washer won't drain or shows OE error? This drain pump assembly removes water during spin cycle. Moderate DIY repair with video guide available.
It was fairly obvious that the washer drainer motor had failed, water was not draining, filter was clean (bottom lower left panel door, have a pail ready!) and drain line was not blocked. Someone had provided great advice on the Appliance Parts Pro's site about replacing the drain motor from the bottom. Great suggestion! Easy to do, although be prepared for more water to drain from the washing machine onto the floor after you lay it over. I carefully lowered the machine onto it's back,... Read more

This three coil solenoid is used for the cold water, bleach dispenser and prewash.
1. I unplugged the washer from outlet 2. I turned off the hot and cold water taps going to the washer (both just in case) 3.

Unscrew valve assembly from washer by two screws on back top of... Read more
Seals between inner and outer tubs to prevent water leaks during wash cycles. Replace if you notice leaks or after bearing replacement. Verify fit.
Repair went fairly smoothly by following the EXCELLENT how-to video provided. I had only a few issues and suggestions. 1. Because many of the screws and fasteners are of multiple sizes, I would recommend laying them out in a muffin tray or on a paper with labels for where they go back. 2. After removing the weights and prepping to remove the shock absorbers, after the front ones were removed, the tub tilted so far the rear shock absorber separated. The friction pads fell out. It was easy... Read more
Supports the inner drum for smooth rotation during wash and spin cycles. Replace when you hear grinding, loud noise, or excessive vibration. Confirm fit with your model number.
Replacement timer control knob assembly for washers. Installs on control panel to select cycles and settings. Needed when knob is cracked, broken, worn, or won't grip timer shaft.
I pulled off the retaining clip with pliers then removed the old knob and timer dial. I replaced all the parts with the new ones and used pliers to reinstall the clip. The teeth on the new knob engage to select the cycle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQwLtRcHx9k Read more
This Tub Seal is an OEM replacement part for GE washing machines that is responsible for preventing water from leaking from the tub. This part is located at the base of the washing machine tub and creates a seal between the tub and the transmission to prevent water from leaking out during the wash cycle. This part fixes the following symptoms-
Causes of a bad tub seal can range from normal wear and tear to a misaligned tub or an overloaded washing machine, which puts extra pressure on the seal. Additionally, the buildup of hard water minerals can degrade the seal's material over time. This OEM GE part can also be used on Hotpoint, RCA, and Kenmore/Sears appliances.
I put this repair off for a long time because I knew the machine would have to be completely torn down to fix it. The repair videos give you the impression that this condition is caused by a bad 'Tub Bearing' which takes a long time to replace but only costs about $15. Don't be lulled into thinking you can fix this for $15. The 'Tub Bearing' is really only a bushing. The one I removed from my washer looked fine but I replaced it anyways. The real problem here is GE's poor design which allows a... Read more
The Magnetic Door Plunger is an OEM part for LG washing machines. It is designed to securely hold the door in a closed position during the operation cycle, employing a magnet mechanism for enhanced reliability. The plunger ensures that the door latch is properly engaged, preventing the machine from running if the door is not closed correctly.
Causes of a bad Magnetic Door Plunger can include wear and tear from constant use, failure of the magnetic mechanism due to exposure to moisture or mechanical damage, or a misalignment that prevents the door from closing properly.
Symptoms of a bad Magnetic Door Plunger include:
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore.
This was a super-easy repair. You have to line up the spring so that it sits on the bumps inside the magnet holder and the door, then you have to line up the tabs on the magnet holder so they will slide into the slots on the door. Then you just push it in. Repair took less than a minute. Read more
The Washer Gasket is an OEM replacement part for LG washing machines. It is a flexible seal that lines the opening of the washer tub, creating an airtight barrier to prevent water leaks and ensure proper containment during the wash and spin cycles.
Symptoms of a bad washer gasket include:
Causes of a washer gasket failure can range from general wear and tear over time, to physical damage from being pinched or cracked, to improper installation or alignment issues.
This OEM LG part is also compatible with Sears/Kenmore models.
Supports the inner tub for smooth rotation during wash and spin cycles. Replace if you hear loud grinding noise or see oil stains. Verify fit by model.
After researching the problem on this site, I realized that the most likely cause was a bad bearing contained in the shaft & tube assembly. Essentially, the tub seal failed & allowed water to travel down the shaft & into the housing containing the bearing. I confirmed this by pulling the front cover off of the unit & noticed some brown water pooled directly under the shaft & tube assembly. I followed the disassembly instructions on this site & it wasn't too bad but did take some time as pretty... Read more
Shock absorber kit reduces vibrations and stabilizes the drum during wash cycles. Replace if worn, leaking, or causing excessive movement and noise.
Our 10-year-old LG WM2487HWMA front load washer had gradually developed multiple problems. It sounded like a jet engine during high speed spin, both the drain pump and circulation pumps were noisy, it would not drain properly (water was coming in during spin cycle), no water was spraying out at the top of the door into the drum like it is supposed to when the circulation pump was running. It's amazing we had still been able to wash clothes at all! With the help of the excellent... Read more
Supports the tub and enables smooth rotation during wash and spin cycles. Replace when hearing grinding noise or excessive vibration. Verify fit.
Replacement tub bearing for top-load washers. Fixes grinding, roaring, or loud humming noises during spin cycles. Verify fit with your model number.
I had never worked on a washing machine before but after watching the online videos I felt like I could do the repair. I was almost positive it was the Mode Shifter and Shaft Assembly that was bad. I could hear the bearing making a grinding noise when I turned the tub by hand. I ordered the part I needed plus additional parts that could be an issue later such as a drive belt, tub bearing, tub seal, tub nut, split ring, etc; Preventive maintenance that would keep from having to tear it all...

This is a white plastic control knob that attaches to the timer or cycle selector shaft on the dryer's control panel. It allows you to select the desired drying cycle or timer setting. Replace this knob if it is cracked, broken, or if the shaft connection has worn out so the knob spins without engaging the timer.
Found the part through appliancepartspros.com The part was the cheapest of several web sites. although shipping for such a small part was steep ($7.95 If I was purchasing bigger parts or heavier parts..the flat rate cost would be a bargain. The part arrived the next day and fit perfectly. In additon; obviously the original manufactured part was not holding up well as the new part had a metal reinforcement band that will prevent the cracking in the future. Read more
Fix a washer that won't agitate or has broken fins. This agitator assembly snaps in place in under 5 minutes. Simple DIY repair, no tools required.
Ordered agitator. Removed old agitator by prying up one side of the agitator and then moving the agitator around in a circle while prying up a little at a time because the clips pop off underneath separately and once a few of them come loose the remaining slide off making a clean removal rather than the "jerking-straight-up-and-into-your-face-and-neck-disaster-waiting-to -happen removal". Cleaned salt buildup from using brand name household detergent for the last 4 months (currently in rental... Read more
