Jared S Lillington , NC February 12, 2019 Rust around the bleach reservoir Both hinges were replaced as well as the top of the washer. Plenty of videos for the hinges, but I found none for the top. Most information concerning the top was to just call a professional. It took about 1.5 hrs to 2 hrs to replace. I took my time and took plenty of photos for the connections. I also took extra time to clean the reservoirs and lines. It's not difficult just take your time. It also helps to have a helper to hold the top in place to reconnect everything.
