Leak in the pump housing from cracked plastic
11 of 16 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Mary from Rehoboth, MA
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 15 - 30 mins
  • Pliers, Screw drivers, Wrench set
Removed the old pump and installed the new one. Most difficulty came from the fact that the dryer is on top of the washer and the washer is inside a plastic pan that has a 2 inch lip which made it difficult to remover the front panel.

Receiving F35 error message after "sud"

After researching the issue on the internet, I found that this was a consistent problem with my washing machine model. Located Part Select, phoned them with the model of the machine and told them what I wanted. Part was received within 2 days. Flipped circuit breaker leading to washer off. Took top off of machine, located the pressure switch, had to twist to remove where it was attached to side of machine. Removed plug with wires, plugged into new switch & replaced to previous location. Machine runs like a brand new one (the longest time was trying to figure out how to get the switch unattached from the side of the machine). Disappointed with Whirlpool; couldn't say enough good things about Part Select!

Cast component of hinge cracked and broke off.
7 of 7 people found this instruction helpful.
  • Mark from GOODYEAR, AZ
  • Very Easy
  • Less than 15 mins
After receiving the hinge and screws, I watched the on line video at the website. I removed the door and hinge from the washer, removed the hinge from the door and re-installed the new hinge. The entire process took less than 15 minutes and reattaching the new hinge to the machine was a breeze. The replaced hinge is smooth as silk and all is back on line. Great service from the crew at this site. Shipping was very quick (ahead of the scheduled arrival) and the CSR was very cordial and professional.

Old bellow pulled loose and torn
7 of 8 people found this instruction helpful.
  • RICHARD from Portland, OR
  • A Bit Difficult
  • 30 - 60 mins
  • Nutdriver, Screw drivers
Was able to remove old bellow without dis-assembly. Replacement required removing the front of the machine for access. Once the front was off, the bellow was simple to replace. Biggest difficulty is getting the top mark on the bellow lined up. It has a tendency to slip out of position while you are working the back of the bellow over th e retaining lip and it is not possible to rotate the bellow after it is installed. Fortunately, the tube from the detergent tray can be rotated slightly to allow for a small amount of error. Replacing the front retaining wire and spring required three hands at one point, but was otherwise not a problem. Fortunately removal and replacement of the front of the machine is pretty straight forward. I needed to disconnect wires to set the front out of the way, but it is impossible to plug them back in incorrectly.

water would not pump (drain) out of machine

  • Nutdriver, Wrench (Adjustable)
My husband removed the bottom panel of the washer and removed the old pump with two screws, then removed the water hose coming into the pump and unplugged the electrical push in type plug from the side of the pump. Simple reversed the process to instal the new one and replaced the front panel. Simple really...far more so than calling a re pair man.

Easy fix,
I remove the front lower panel and the shocks where right in front of you , with a little twist with an adjustable wrench the cam right off . I removed and the replaced and it the same when you remove the back panel.
P.S when installing the shocks start by connecting to the bottom and then connect to the drum it will m ake it lot easier.
Good luck on your repair
