Thanks for documenting the process fully. I thought I was only one having that much trouble getting that plate off.
Most accurate video on this process. Well done
I have had to do that 3 times to replace the clip under there. What I do is only 1 vice grip like you did there and an L shaped pick in a hole opposite that.( Just choose a hole kind of even to your vice grip side) then as you pull up go RIGHT UP.... LEFT UP... RIGHT UP ... LEFT UP... Until it loosens. It takes some time, but it works. Trust me. I hurt myself, pulling like that. I don't have the strength like that.
Thanks for the technique!
Replaced shift actuator, splutch,w/belt w/pulley , and plastic tub hub . Hardly spins, very slow any ideas thanks
great idea for fix it..thanks so much, greethings from baja mexico
Ok so this might help me. My shaft teeth are worn also. I put a brand new hub on and the basket still didn’t turn with the plate. It’s supposed to be like a solid unit right?
Went to dry my work shirts last and noticed they were a lot more damp than normal. Hit the spin cycle and it did this exact thing. I'm hoping it's not chewed up like your's but I'm crossing my fingers it is just the $20 basket hub. Did you have to recalibrate it by running the diagnostics?
This was the hardest thing to get out, was the agitator plate. I duct taped to the inside across the agitator arms, and then put a broom handle over the opening and used it as like a come along System, and tapped on it as I was ratcheting. Finally broke loose. I had tried putting knives and I could get one knife under one side, but it was too tight for the other side so it had to come straight up and I did not want to damage my agitator
i used a shoelace of all things to wiggle it off. I am in no way strong nor TALL. but I managed to get the shoelace under it and wiggle back and forth and walk it off. works for me
I cant get my drive hub to come past the spindle the groves on it sit out farther then the drive hub? Any sdvice
I am trying to take the cover off but it's not working can I use dish soap
I have replaced hub once already. I used two part epoxy last time because shaft teeth were worn down some. Here I am, two years later, hub stripped out again today. I ordered a new hub and gonna use JB Weld too. Mt question is, HOW in the hell does the shaft teeth get worn down? I don't see how the plastic hub can wear metal down!! These washers are terrible. The hub and other parts give out prematurely because the washer doesn't use enough water. It's a terrible strain on the machine, trying to move around wet clothes with so little water.
Ben's appliances, has a metal hub repair kit,to fixthis problem
I used a small dog lead and pulled it up that way
We have the same exact washer and the hub stripped out yesterday. Ours is only 2yrs old and the shaft splines look very deteriorated. I ordered a new hub but I’m a little hesitant to put it on without doing some kind of rigging. What do you think about drilling a small hole in the shaft for a pin.
Did you ever try that? I wouldn't think it would work because there is a separate shaft within a shaft, the turn independently.
@@MrMjrob No. after I made the comment I researched it further and you’re right about the shaft. I ended up buying a new hub and glued it using some high psi JB weld. So far so good. I just figured the splines are almost shot and you have to buy a new transmission anyway to fix it right. Such a shit design
I used vice grips and a 90 degree pick in a hole across from the vice grips and it popped right out
After you get the screw out, all you have to do is hit the insite the hole with a something a few times and the adgitator comes right off
With worn Trans Shaft The Metal Hub kit doesn’t work as long as the plastic. Tried them. With the Worn down teeth on the shaft, you need a new Trans/Gear Housing or a new Wash Machine.
have you ever had the bolt not come loose? My agitator spins freely, when I try to loosen the bolt, I hold the drum, but the bolt does not loosen!!
Did you ever get yours off? If so, how??
Yes, I took a bunch of extensions for my socket and a breaker bar , so I was working above the washer, then I turned the bolt clockwise a little and quickly pulled it back counter clockwise a few times and it broke loose
How is it holding up?
No issues so far! We run it everyday.
So the hub teeth wore out? The hub kit is like $30 though. Pain in the ass to have to keep changing it but it should do, no?
The issue i had was the transmission teeth also wore out also... if it was only the hub teeth, yes just buy a new hub. Which I did the first time and it lasted about 3 days. Thats why I jb welded it together, and its still working fine. Let cheaper than a new transmission.
Check Amazon
@@JessicaT-zw2sn got a new washer, couldn’t deal with having to repair it every 3 loads.
I can’t get the hub to pull up past the transmission teeth? The teeth stick out farther then the hub any help pleaseeeeeee
Jez.. I can't even get the bolt under the cap to turn .. frozen solid.. any suggestions?
Everything about this machine is stupid i have worked on several these poorly designed washer plastic junk .
I guess the obvious question is how do metal teeth wear out against plastic? Someone f’d up that shaft.
I think if you put in to much cotton clothes it puts a high stress on your agitator hub striping the splines in side the hub not so much the transmission but it can happen over time,Danny Malliard
The transmission is $160
First remove the c-ring.
Loosen bolt screw on half way hold plate with a rubber glove for grip tap bolt with hammer. Tighten a little and repeat. It’ll come off
