- In this video I replace the broken hinge on my Whirlpool Duet washer (washer model: WFW9200SQ02) with one tool, a Torx T20 screwdriver. Hopefully this will give you an idea of what you are up against if you have the same issue, and inspire you to tackle the job yourself and save some money!
Symptoms and inspection
You may be having trouble opening or closing the washer door as the alignment is “off”. You may notice that water is leaking around the washer door. Carefully inspect the small arm that bridges the two pivot points on the hinge as this seems to be the weak link in the design (perhaps by design).
The removal and installation of the new hinge is fairly simple, the one issue I experienced was that the threads in the aftermarket hinge needed to be “cleaned up”. Ideally with the right tap you would chase these threads to clean them up. I carefully ran the Torx head bolts in and out of the new hinge (this took some force and care to avoid cross-threading). I performed this step before mounting the hinge to the door.
These same steps will apply to some Kenmore and Maytag models too. Do your own research on part numbers to be certain.
