@eticket70 Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!
@eticket70 Good for you! Thats a tough project! Now you can keep that thing running as long as you want to buy the parts. Glad I could help, Thanks for the comment!!
Great video. Especially about taking the top retaining nut and drive tube coupler off. Just what I needed with my shaft not coming out easy.
Is it just me or do people enjoy taking apart and fixing the Direct Drive washers the most?
great vid, thanks, my washer will not spin and makes a grinding noise, your illistration gave me the tools to look for worn or broken parts, this will be my first time taking it apt thanx alot for a good vid
Thanks for the update!! Congratulations!
this is the most detailed video ive seen on this popular machine,many people have no spin and are changing the clutch but that doesnt always solve the problem,,many times the drive block or tub hub go bad,or tranny.
Sorry for the delay, I hope you where able to figure it out and get things going...Heres a few things to check... Is the clutch plate all the way down and locked onto the transmission? Could the clutch spring be hitting the brake arm? I usually install the inner tub onto the hub after the transmission is in place. Is the inner tub out? That may be making things difficult. Hope that helps some! Good luck! Thanks for the question!
Thanks for the comment! Best of luck!
I think you are on the right track. There may be a sock or something stuck in the drain pump. Does it still agitate?
I was hoping you would talk about how to replace the bearing in the transmission where it connects to the drive mines leaking oil.
My Kenmore is top loader. Thanks.
The clutch would usually slip if it was going bad but it should still engage somewhat... have you looked at the break arm? it should catch on the inner band of the clutch pad, next to the tension spring to release for spinning. The outer bell of the clutch drives directly off the transmission, so you may have a transmission problem : (
That is a tough one...you may need to pull out the inner tub and see if there is something stuck between the tubs. With the tub out try to spin it again and see if the drive shaft is moving. Hopefully that will give some clues. Good luck!
Excellent Job Men. Thanks
Fantastic!
Great video. I hope that I can do this! Before I order the expensive part (tranny), I just want to clarify that it is the part required.
Washer agitates on low speed, but "slips" under load (a towel or 2 prs jeans is too much) and will only agitate clockwise, resulting in clothes wrapped around the agitator. Low load is ok. Regular agitate speed always grinds & won't catch on the CCW motion. On spin, it will sometimes suddenly "grab" and agitator will stop free spinning before releasing again.
Thanks, the video really helped
Am gonna try to fix mine right now
