This video is so well made. Perfectly describes the issue I'm having. I appreciate that you include clear step-by-step instructions, are honest about prices, and also show things realistically like the difficulty getting the parts apart due to rust. May end up trying this on my own. Thanks!

I have a washer with this problem, I will be trying this today. I loved your video. It was very informative, I wish more Techs can do theirs like this. Thank you

This was the part of youtube i desperately needed. Thank you

Thank you so much! You saved us a ton of money! We had 6 dimes under there and some hair wrapped around the small cap and it needed cleaned! I do use white vinegar to run through a cycle and clean it every now and then! It was making an awful noise. Running like a dream right now!

Thanks for sharing, I just love learning from your repair videos so please keep them coming.

You're welcome!

Since the shaft teeth are gone anyway, you wouldn't lose anything by modifying the shaft to lock into the hub. Several different things you could do but perhaps the two easiest would be to grind matching keyways into the shaft and hub... I would do two of them opposite each other and use a piece of 1/4 round bar or bolt as a key.... The other option if you have a small enough right angle drill.... make a hole all the way through the hub and shaft, then insert a roll pin or bolt. Otherwise, if you can get both parts clean enough, you might try marine grade JB Weld, but that would be the least preferred method.

I'm having a similar problem now. A buddy is coming over later to help me look at it. I tried replacing the plastic hub drive part with a metal one. That didn't resolve the issue. I'll take a closer look at my drive shaft.

Thank you so much for this video! I'm trying to figure out why my year 2014 washer (Whirlpool #WTW4900BW) is not spinning the clothes as dry as it should. Is the wash plate supposed to move independently from that outer bottom ring and is it also supposed to spin very easily?

in your video today can you show how to pull down the outer driver drum of the GE top load of washer in the front panel?

We have a Maytag washing machine that we bought new in 9/21. It doesn't spin out the clothes unless you put it in the drain and spin setting. Won't spin out the clothes in any other setting.

I got the washer plate off. Ive unscrewed the hub and pulled the pin out. I cant get the plastic hub off the shaft.

Saw this same repair in another video. They make a metal hub that you can use instead of a plastic hub. The stronger teeth might have enough grab on the worn shaft to extend life for awhile. Disappointed he did not try a metal replacement.

Some parts are meant to be sacrificial to protect other more expensive parts.

As a last resort... w/the drive splines all worn down. and the machine basically scrap.... I would try to install either the new or original part back on using a good 2 part epoxy like J.B. weld or equivalent. Then, after proper curing time, I'd suggest try to use the machine, if it works for a short or long time, at least you will have time to make arrangements for a replacement either new or used.

I have an old washer that the motor burned out on. Kept it for spare parts. How likely is it for the drive shaft to fit the washer I'm trying to fix?

My "admiral" brand washing machine had the problem of no spin cycle, i lived with it for awhile but now theres no movement whatsoever, so i'm done with that thing and just replaced the whole machine

My hisense 10.5 kg automatic top loader washing machine wont spin what could possibly be the problem and i bought it like 4 months ago

This is exactly what's happening to my whirlpool washer just bought it new 6 months ago and of course they never warranty them longer than that , such a crock lol, single mom , and I'm not handy at all I don't even know what some of this stuff means lol

I got the 7/16 nut of and did everything to pull the plastic up and wont budge. I used wd 40 put screws into the holes attached to 10g wire. Nothing. I tilted machine on side and braced with my feet and wont budge. Are you sure there is not another clip or screw under the washer? I've been tugging for 3 hrs now. Any advice ? Thanks again

@helpinguonline

There is not another clip on the model shown in this video... I actually had the same problem as you and put a 2x4 across the top and strapped the 2 wires to a tie down strap... pulled it tight... then put the 7/16 bolt back in (not all the way) and tapped it with a hammer to break it loose. It was rusted solid and as you saw in my video and the shaft /gears were toast... Poor design. Many machines will not be this difficult and can be repaired. When you get yours off it may or may not be worth repairing?...

I also soaked mine overnight with PB Blaster which works better than wd40 to free up parts.

Trying this solution, but the plastic retaining clip is stuck and wont slip out, any tips on how to get it out to check underneath?

Use a large flat head screwdriver… Stick it into the closed end of the clip (The bottom of the U) And twist it. That should get the clip started to come out and then you can work its way out.

I have another question the washer we took out ,the one I fixed we are using ,I have another one that won’t stop filling up it runs over and I replaced the water filling part that connects hoses that didn’t help , what do you think it is thanks!

@helpinguonline

Жыл бұрын

If your washer is filling with too much water, the two sets of contacts on the water level switch may have fused. Or there may be a leak in the pressure hose or air dome tube, which connect the switch to the tub. You can also check out this video starting at 4:15 kzread.info/dash/bejne/qa2Ftq17mpOZk6w.html

Hi! I have an older Whirlpool washer that won’t spin and makes a horrible noise! how do I find the model number so I can try and find parts? The only # on the lid is 4217141 or do I need disconnect and pull it out? I’m a 67 year old woman and don’t want to pull it all the way out if I don’t need to

Ok what happens if you do “create another problem “ & drop the screw down? What do I do lord??😭

Metal hub and JB weld and I'm using it until the rest wears out .

My whirlpool no agitator stopped something, like thoroughly draining. It does spin. Only had it 4 years. Repairman said $500 in new parts.

I have a whirlpool washer , it is stuck in drain mode . What could be the problem? Thanks in advance.

Then there's a spot that seats easily but the bolt holes look 70% aligned. I had to place the drive hub where it could seat allllll the way down before the clip would go in, but then it was night and day easier!!!

I went and bought an impact driver and that screw said "you're measly tool shant loosen me!" Any other suggestions on getting it kloose?

@helpinguonline

Жыл бұрын

Sounds like yours is really rusted in place. I would try to soak it good with something like PB Blaster or some other product to free up the rust. As it is soaking... maybe over a couple days... keep trying your impact driver. The hammering effect is helpful in breaking things loose. The only problem is if your screw is rusted solid it may break the screw. Hope it works out for you. A side note.....Years ago we had a stuck well at our farm. It was connected to a wind mill and frozen solid. We were advised to pour Coke down the well and low and behold it worked. Not sure what affect that may have on your washer?

@@helpinguonline I grabbed some PB the same time I got the driver. Also used a regular 7/16 wrench and hammered the sides. Then used my steam cleaner to see if that would loosen. Tried the impact driver again last night and accidentally let go of the plate while using it and noticed the bolt was just spinning. Figured it’s stripped now, and from my further research on that, I diverse that the transmission shaft is shot. Which isn’t worth the replacement in terms of money and buying a used washer from the local appliance store. But, from watching a lot of your videos I’ve learned things if anything ever needs to be fixed again. When I started I told myself the worst I could do was break it worse than it already was! Your videos helped instill some confidence in me for future repair jobs as a 33 yr old woman! And that’s just as worthy of fixing the original problem to me. So thanks for your helpful comments and videos!
