Idler pully seperated from bushing
first I unplugged the electrical plug then I removed the lower covet by taking out the 5/16 screws. I then took out the 5/16 screws that hold the top part of the front cover and removed it.
I then worked the belt off the aggitator pully and removed the hoses from the pump. I then used a 1/2 in soclet on long extension th remove the four bolts that hold the motor and pump assembly. I then worked the assembly out of the cabinate and using a long #20 torx bit I removed the pumfrom the housing. I removed the belt, then I removed the housing off the motor and replaced the Idler bracket with the idler pully. I then re-assembled it in the reverse of taking it apart. Works great with the new idler and belt.

I have replaced my drain pump, drive belt, idler spring and idler pulley. My machine will not agitate or spin out unless i put tension on the idler lever. Should i replace it?
Hello and thank you for writing.
Yes, you should as it sound like the lever got damaged, maybe bent and is not functioning as it should. We hope this helps. Please contact us anytime if you require further assistance.
