You should always make sure the capacitor is discharged before handling.

Question: can you tell me the color wire and the label you attached them too? I have to do the same thing, and my old capacitor doesn't have labels.

I have this same unit and today I replaced the drain pump in about 20 minutes. This video helped but I will add a few things: 1- You do not have to remove the top. Remove only the front panel of the coin catcher and then tilt the machine back to get to the 3 10mm bolts that hold the pump assembly to the bottom plastic frame. 2- You do not have to remove any of the hoses from the pump body. After removing the 3 10mm bolts, pull the pump assembly to where you can remove the 3 screws that hold the pump assembly to the metal frame. Then remove the screw that holds the cover over the drain motor, unplug it, then remove the 2 remaining screw of the drain motor. **Make sure you pay attention to the orientation of the drain motor as it connects to the pump assembly. Then simply reverse the order of everything you did.

Yeah but now the bathroom smells like wd40

It turns out this is the exact same model as mine so it's an extra great video for some details that I didn't notice when disassembling! Thanks.

Nice endind!!! Where is the final video showing the fix??

Got the replacement. Its working but when I press down window goes up, when I pull up window goes down. Why?

Why did you take the top off?

What's the squeaking or chirping noise

Now add RainEx and never have water spots again👍

What region of manitoba?

Best way to fix this problem is not to build a house on the ground instead built the house on piers

At 0:45 - if the drywall holds the two parallel bottom plates together (and not so much the nails?), then isn't the drywall screwed into both the lower and upper bottom plate? If the floor heaves upwards and closes the 1-inch gap then wouldn't the drywall buckle at the bottom? Also wouldn't the heads of the nails tend to back out of the upper bottom plate?

We do the same thing here in Colorado.

That's a pretty shoddy solution.

Seems to me the whole house is built on unstable ground.

Most guys ive seen (me included) do floating walls drive 6 inch nails through both plates. That way the wall is actually able to move up and down independent. The way you have it here, if the wall moved up all your nails will disconnect from the bottom plate.

I’ve heard about this, but this is the first time I’ve ever actually seen a picture of it.

Why no rebar?

Rebar the entire floor, with inset 600mm piles under the slab, but formed integral with the slab; slab 200mm.

Better then to stop building walls in such a basement. 🤪

Not too structural, building for over 30 years,doesn't make a lot of sense 😮

Best to use plastic under bottom plate or a pressure treated bottom plate for moisture and wood rot.

My seals aren't leaking, just the gasket around the gearbox. Do i have to replace the seals?

I hope it helps

Thank you for sharing this video.

That sounds like the water pump bearing going out. Check the weep hole for drainage

Never heard of that. Learn something new everyday!!! No p.t. for the bottom plate though??

I discovered that the number 1 reason why this happens is because (hard to believe that almost everyone underlooks) the furnace is sloping the wrong direction. In other words its draining the wrong direction causing condensate to accumulate and overwhelms the gasket. Its much easier for a installation tech to level it and let it burn or leak and burn the inlet motor. But check the direction of flow of drain. It should be going away from not into furnace Furnace owners check level of furnace check what direction slope!

Fellow Manitoban here- what’s code for properly doing moisture/ vapor barrier on the perimeter walls? I’m seeing conflicting answers, MB hydro states to put vapor barrier on the backside and front of the wall- but I feel that would create a moisture problem

I live west of Denver where code requires 1.5" expansion gap. I'm redoing a 50+ yo basement that had gaps, but the construction technique was inadequate. I haven't been able to find much DIY information on framing doors and, more importantly, a tiled shower stall. City inspector wasn't much help, nor were the two contractors I talked to. I'm all ears for any advice or sources of information!

Wouldnt the cut weaken the stud. Sure your putting the screw in it as well but the load will never be translefed as well as if it was full. Most people tend to plane the side down a bit instead. What are your opinions. If it was just one stud then it will be ok especially on a partition wall but if it’s load bearing and also multiple studs I wouldn’t recommend. What are your opinions

Just be sure to do a similar quality job on the sheetrock and paint so people know the type of work they are getting. 🤌

Is it normal when you’re in accesory mode, those three lights in the mini screen turned on?

Sorry guy, that is not a wall. Its closer to a screen. nailing chalk and paper sheets to wooden struts doesn't make a wall. Regardless if you guys call chalk board, dry wall

Thank you so much and you’re a hard-working man💪🏼

Do you remember what model LG washer that is in the video? It looks like mine, which is a WM3670HVA. Other CZcams videos showing the same drain pump replacement for this model washer approach the repair work differently. They want to gain access to take out the pump by removing the front door, which in turn requires unscrewing the control panel so as to fold it back to access to get to the screws to remove the door, and then to get access to pulling out the control panel, the top of the washer is taken off. Doing all this gave access to the drain pump for removal from the front. The method in these videos seem straight forward. They only complain of the difficulty of getting the wire spring back around the rubber door seal. Is the technique you show in your video the common one used to replace the pump? I fear putting down the heavy machine on its front could damage the control panel and/or door. Another question. Why is it necessary to disconnect the water hoses from the machine? Why could they not be disconnected at the faucets and let hang? Thank you for any response.

Saved a expensive service call 👍

How to revert this though?

Thank you! There are many videos demonstrating how to do this with minor differences by model. I have the same exact model with the 3 bolts holding the pump/housing in. Thank you for also showing the pump wire connections. I hastily removed the connections without noting their position. None of the other videos show the connections. Now I’m just waiting on my pump to arrive to swap it in. Thanks again!

You can use a old style Canadian paper bill, it has enough grit on it to clean the dirt off the thermocouple.

thanks for the video. I used your advice checking the lines and in my case, found that the rubber tube lines inside the top box after taking them apart to investigate were clogged with debris as well as a few other areas. I cleaned them out. I'm hoping this is the solution to eliminating water backing up. will need to check on it and see next several days and counting. this has been happening for years even after changing out the exhaust blow fan when it failed, maybe it failed due to all the water getting in it which is what it was doing.

Thank you!

there is only one reason anyone would put a 10mm hex on a replacement plug, and that's to ensure there is another avenue for the owner to end up back in the shop. thanks for the video!

You only took the top off but what else did you take apart to get to clearly work on the bottom where the pump is? You didn’t show the whole process.

7:24 In addition, pack some grease on the back side the seal where the circular spring is. This will help keep the spring in place when you bang on the seal from the front with the hammer during install.

Thank you for making this video sweet, simple, and to the point :)

I hope the video helped. 👍

My 2008 4.3 was making the same noise, couldn’t figure it out till last night and today. Well tomorrow, she’s getting a new water pump tomorrow.
