My Whirlpool washing machine is dripping water into where I put my clothes to wash. Which part is that?
For model number WTW8540BW1
Hello Damian, Thank you for the question. This is normally caused by a defective Water Inlet valve that is stuck open and allowing water to flow through to the Tub. The Valve will need to be replaced. We hope this helps!
My whirlpool cabrio started leaking water at some point during use… I just love this washer and dryer and wonder if it’s worth fixing? Thank you!

Hello Judi, thank you for contacting us. According to our research, we would recommend checking the drain hose for any damage. If the drain hose is fine, then the issue is most probably with the drain pump, part number PS11754363. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this helps!
Hi Jackie, thank you for reaching out. If Sd or Sud appear in the display, you have excessive suds in the washer. The washer is running a suds reduction routine. Allow the washer to continue. Use only high efficiency detergent. Always measure detergent and base detergent quantity on load size. We hope this information is useful!

Removed a cap in the center of the tub basket which has a bolt that needs removed I believe it's a 9/16 after I removed the bolt I then removed the center of the bottom of the basket assembly which then allowed me to get to the basket hub that needed replaced it was a little dirty and I couldn't get it out so I sprayed a little penitrating oil on it let it sit a little then I was able to remove the hub and install the new one then I put it all back together and the washer is working great
3rd time replacing this part. The plastic grooves against the metal get wore down. Only 20$ to repair ! Take off the 3/8 bolt - center pops out. Remove screws pop out old piece and tighten new piece each side evenly.
This product comes in a bottle with a brush like Liquid Paper. It goes on incredibly easy. A second coat might be needed. I wanted to prevent rust from setting in so I covered the scratches and dings. The paint is a little brighter since my washer is 10 years old but it still looks great.
