ETW485ASW0WB General Electric Washer - Instructions

Used a Phillips screw driver to lock the top and bottom of auger. Took a while to separate from base. Used another driver to remove old base and put the new one on with nut driver. Placed auger on base and turned to lock. Job done and works great.
Thanks

Being a woman I had to figure out tipping it in its front. I put it on a dollie and drop it down real easy.
Removed all water lines after water was shut off.
Removed bolts. Removed bolts on plate to the right to unplug old pump.
Plugged in new one and replaced all bolts, hoses and tipped her back up. Works like a charm and I saved $408 by doing it myself!!!!!

Take cover off use socket driver to remove two hex head machine screws. There was a foam piece attached to the old part that i pealed off and attached to the new part. It’s there to prevent rattles. There is a tube that pulls out of the old part and a grommet inside that must be removed and placed in the new part. Connect the two electrical plugs and install the new part just like the old part came out.

Emptied the washer, took the back cover off, tipped it foward, unplugge the old pump, remove two mount bolts. The replaced the new pump. The new pump resolved the issue.

Took 4 screws out of back of control panel. Tested old capacitor. Installed new one. Put back on tested spin cycle everything is doing great

1.)disconnected washer from water & electric (remember to turn water off 1st)
2.)pull washer out and leaned it back against the wall to access bottom of the washer
3.)remove protective cage covering belt assembly with nut driver. (4 screws and one has a ground wire)
4.)remove old belt by turning pulley’s and nudging it off of the flat pulley.
5.)install new belt groove side in. Put belt on grooved pulley 1st and slowly turn pulley’s while nudging it onto flat pulley.
6.)reinstall protective cage (don’t forget ground wire) and set washer right side up.
7.)slide washer back in place, hook up your water then plug in machine. (Remember to turn the water on)

Leaned washer back to get to motor. Loosen screws to remove belt cover. Slipped old belt off, cleaned both spinals off, slipped new belt on. Have a good day!

I watched a youtube video to see how others performed the repair. My washer was a little different than in the videos but the inlet valve was very easy to access once I pulled the washer out of it's "nook". I took off the back panel of the control "box" (4 screws). Then accessed the valve which was held in place with two screws. The screws were buried behind a few wires so they were a little difficult to access but not impossible. I did need to use my 1/4" box end wrench as my son had borrowed my socket set.

The people at PartsSelect were helpful in selecting the right part and the repair is working fine. My wife is happy.

easiest repair I have ever made. No problems and was surprised as to how fast and easy it was to repair. I did not need two of steps the instructions stated I had to do. best purchase I have ever made.

I downloaded the repair manual on line and followed the instructions for running the diagnostics. This showed that the selector switches were faulty. I then replaced the selector switches following the instructions in the repair manual. Couldn't have been easier.

We are on a fixed income so my wife and I did the repair ourselves. Thanks very much to the instructions George from Clarksville, Tn. provided on your website. She read the instructions and I followed them. the repair went excellent, THANK YOU GEORGE. All is well

Once I determined it was the drain pump, (by taking off the drain hose and letting it empty by gravity, then running the spin cycle which worked ok) I ordered the part, got confirmation from PartSelect.com that it would fit my washer. I removed the old pump taking out the 6 screws needed to hold it and the cover in place and unplugged the electric connector. I installed the new pump from PartSelect.com using the same cover and 6 screws and electric connector. I reconnected the drain hose and the washer has worked perfectly since then!

I replaced the Pump Drain assembly. It was very easy. Removed 3 bolts and disconnected the electrical wire harness and put new one on. It works great.

Unpluged the washer first got as much water out of the drum as possible the leaned the washer over forward and let it rest against something removed hose clamp from pump side and removed the drain hose from pump remove plastic cover and unplug pump push tab and pull remove bolts from pump remove pump install all components in reverse be sure to replace pump to drum seal as well
