Took two hosses off with pliers and snaped the clips off then pulled pump off of shaft . replaced with new pump. VERY EASY. Thanks Brian

After unplugging power and disconnecting water drain hose, I pulled the washer out aprox four feet from the wall and leaned it back against the wall. I then used a lamp at the end of an ext cord to light up below the washer where the water pump was attached and it was easy to remove and replace! I carefully replaced the washer in its original location and reconnected power and drain hose. The job was complete in 15 minutes! Wow!

watched a video that showed how to repair that you had on your web site. also read some of the remarks that other people left on site, one was super easy. just laid washer on its back, unhooked both water lines from pump. unhooked both metal clips holding pump and pulled off. replaced new pump in reverse order. didn't have to go thru all the procedures of taking off the body or nothing. 15min job.

undone 2 hoses and popped off brackets

tilted the unit on it's back. removed clamps and hoses from pump. used screwdriver and pried off 2 hold-down clamps. removed old pump. placed new pump onto shaft. installed hold -down straps. re-installed 2 hoses. stood washer upright, releveled and turned on.

I pulled out the washer, laid it on it's back, pulled off the two hoses using pliers for the clamps, pulled back two clips, pulled off the pump from the shaft, put the new pump on the shaft, and did the reverse of the above. It was a simple operation and made even more satisfying by the prompt delivery of the part, within 2 days. Thank you for that, and I will use your services in the future if needed.

This was very easy. I just pushed the retaining clips off of the pump body (one top side, and one on the bottom) with my fingers. Then I used a pair of channel lock pliers to compress and relocate the spring clamps down the two hoses away from the pump body to remove their clamping action. I removed the hoses, then pulled the pump off of the motor shaft. I lined up the motor shaft with the flat spots in the new pump and installed the new pump in the reverse order. This process took about five minutes and was super easy.

I turned the washer on to see if I could determine where it was leaking from. After I figured out that it was the pump that was leaking, I ordered a new pump. I went with next day shipping because at our house, we can't go long without a washer and the cost for the shipping was worth it. Had it installed in 10 minutes, only tool needed was a pliers to remove the hose clamps, piece of cake repair!

My friend unplugged washer turned off water to it, tilted machine back took off old, put on new. It took him about 5 minutes. Washer is working fine now, no more water leaks!

I noticed a leak on the floor. I check the hoses for tightness on the back of the washer and the hoses going to the facets and drain. After disconnecting the hoses going to the washer, facet and drain, I then flip the washer on it's back and examined the underside for wetness. All the underside hoses appeared to be not leaking. I then disconnected the two hoses going to the pump with channel-locks, and I disconnect the two clips holding the pump with just my hand and removed the water pump. I then poured water into the hoses' opening on the water pump itself, and I discovered a slow leak occurring from the shaft area on the water pump. I searched PartSelect and luckily found a water pump that matched. I then installed the new water pump (after receiving it a few days later) in reversed procedures of disconnecting the old water pump. I tested the washer by adding a little bit of water into the washer then switch the dial to spin cycle in order to empty the water inside the washer--no leaks occurred and I was extremely happy.

Removed the two spring clamps from hoses; removed hoses from pump. Removed spring clips holding pump to motor. Had to pry pump off of motor shaft due to rust on shaft end. Sandpapered rust off of shaft and then lubed same with oil and new pump slid easily onto motor shaft. Re-snapped spring clips to hold pump onto motor and then reinstalled hoses and their spring clamps. Whala, end of story, job well done.

My husband got the part within 2 days of the order and replaced the leaking pump within a half hour. The repair was very quick and easy for him and your company's prompt delivery prevented my floor from getting wet everytime I did a load of laundry. Thank you and we will continue to get parts from your site in the future--hopefully we won't need to anytime soon. but we know you are there if we need to repair!

Frist I removed the two water hoses going to the pump. Second releaseed the two clips holding the pump , it came right off the motor shaft.
Third, put the new pump on the shaft, put the clips on last the hoses good to go.

First I watched the repair video. Then I pulled the power plug and shut the water off. I didn't have all the room available to remove the front and sides of the machine in my narrow hallway so I just slid it away from the wall and leaned it back against the wall and had plenty of room to do the repair lying on my side. $28.00 part and in 20 minutes all done. This is the second time this site saved me time and mucho money. Thank you. Leon B. from Massachusetts
