WM2496HWM (ABWEEUS) LG Washer - Instructions

Unscrewed 2 screws holding part. Removed old part & replaced with new.

Do not pay a service company to come to your house to make this fix!!! If you have common sense, simple tools, a phone camera and some mini zip ties you can do this!

After watching a couple YouTube videos on installing a new motor I had the confidence to start the job. My biggest worry was I'd forget where a screw/part went so I took a lot of pictures as I disassembled. I also laid all the parts out on a table reflective of where they belonged on the machine. I learned washers aren't rocket science - YOU CAN DO THIS. The most difficult part of the fix was my washer was a different model so much of the caging was completely different than YouTube disassembly, but once I got into the machine it was fairly identical. Easily popped out the old, broken motor and inserted the new LG certified part. Reassembled in 1/2 the time of disassembly and my machine works like new:) Hoping to get another 10+ years out of this washer.

Thanks PartsSelect for the high quality certified LG part. Very nice quality and weight.

After watching the video for installation of the bellow, I followed the suggested repair method and was able to repair my washer.

I already had the top of the washer open, from previous disassembly to clean the front loader seal, and when I ran a trial load, noticed a small 1/4" tear in the hose bellows that attaches to the drum.

Very simple repair, remove the existing hose by loosening the clamps, paying attention to their orientation. Install the existing hose clamps onto the new hose, install and tighten the hose clamps.

5 minute job, if the washer top is off (which is also simple).

Could not do the repair. Partselect sent me the wrong parts even though I gave them the model number and the brand they sent me the wrong parts.

Followed instructions on YouTube link. Replaced the shock absorber and washer is working really well.

replaced switch as shown in the video...Worked great

just put new part in very simple only problem was shipping yall used fedex went to 4 states and one state twice they finally gave it to USPS so it took almost 9 days to get here

To fix the problem, I simply removed the top cover of the washing machine by removing the two screws on the back of the machine which allowed me to slide the top back and then I lifted it off. Then I disconnected the hot water hose (after shutting off the valve). Next, I removed the electrical connectors on the old part as well as the hose attached to it and unscrewed the old part and removed it and put the new one on and reattached the hoses and the electrical. It worked like a charm. It took me perhaps 10 minutes total.

After I watched the repair video for the part, it was a snap. It went exactly as the video described the steps. Hardest part was moving the washer to get behind it.

Replaced it

Found this part online. I just sets inside, did not click in like the bleach and fabric softener inserts. Think is ok, seems to work

Took off the old hose with a screwdriver and put the new one on. As simple as that. You don’t need a repair man to get this done, you can do it yourself and save money too.

I set my iPad on the exposed washing machine drum, was exposed after removing top as explained in video, and put on the ‘ how to do video it’. It was so easy for this 78-year-old brain, that I am very pleased with myself. Also would like to thank whoever I talked to, Chris, when I ordered this part from this company, Chris was very helpful and took time with me. So this ‘do it yourself person’, and I’m really not a do it yourself person, WILL certainly be looking into other do it yourself fixers. Thank you again.

Replaced cold water inlet. Removed 4 water lines and 5 wires put new part in and reinstalled lines and wires
