For model number FEX831FS4
Hello Kyle, Thank you for contacting us. I have researched the model you have provided and have found the part you are looking for is PartSelect Number PS446533. We hope this helps.
Every load on the spin cycle the washer goes unbalance . Ive adjusted the legs and still can't get the tub to straighten up it leans to the right on the spin cycle . Took my level to check and the bubble is between the lines.. help!!
For model number FEX831FS4
Hello Addie,thank you for your question. You may need to replace the suspension spring. Its function is to stabilize the outer tub by keeping it balanced.
Is this model vented or unvented i can't tell because i can't see in the back. How long should it take to dry if it's a vented model it seems to be taking more like 2 hours.
For model number FEX831FS4
Hello David, thank you for your question. Yes, this is vented. If the unit is taking too long to dryer, the unit might need to be vacuumed out well or there may be a clog in the vent. The other issue it could be are the thermostats, or heating element. If cleaning the unit doesn't fix the long dry time issue, we would recommend testing the thermostats and heating element. I hope this helps.

Dryer stopped working without a sound. Opened vent in back of dryer where the pulley is and I see belt it is not on the pulley but has a lot of slack. I moved it around doesn’t seem broken but has lots of slack. What should I do next?
For model number FEX831FS4
Hello Tom, thank you for reaching out. To fix the issue, we would recommend adjusting the pulley to see if the belt tightens on it or not. If this does not solve the problem, then you may need to replace the drive belt, part number PS1146950. We hope this helps, good luck with this repair!
