He made that look soooo much easier than real life. It took me 20 minutes, a lot of swearing, and a unique technique involving my left foot to hold the bottom left in place, my left hand working clockwise to keep the ring in the groove, and my right hand to get progress. My wife walked in right at the end to see my compromised position.
The foot technique worked for me. Thank you so much!!! Also, my wife had a good laugh at me reading this comment and then, in desperation, trying it.
Seriously better advise than the video. Just propped myself up between wall and washer with foot on it and worked. But now I’m patching drywall.
Thank you! When your spring is tight, the left foot technique is the way to go!
yeah.. that was fishy. Hadto use both my feet and pull like crazy...
Even tried the tool for trampoline springs... 2 screw drivers.. my head.. elbows.. knees ... feet .... hands....
Help 😫😭
No way! I’m CANNOT get mine back on no matter what!
Heck no! He made it look extremely easy to pop that right into place. Mine is pissing me off. It was my pump I just replaced. It’s the stupid ring that’s giving me a run for my money😤.
Same here. I got my pump replaced. Now I may have to pay someone to put the ring back on!
@@medicbrndn Me and my wife had to both do it together.
Thanks mate. Your trick worked after numerous failed attempts of my own.
Much appreciated
You're welcome!
So glad I looked this up and found you! I was about to give myself a stroke getting pissed off and cursing every time the ring and gasket fell off! Your method worked in 5 tries vs 1.5 hours doing it various wrong ways! Thank you
The dad we all needed
Thank you! After about 10 tries with out the pliers I gave up. Got it the 2nd time once I used your method.
Nice simple description. Thank you. I also used a screwdriver along with the locking pliers to help ease the gasket clamp back on. Thx!
Yes true
@@mohanasnani6725 tp
That worked thanks lol
Took a flat head and basically did the reverse of removing the clamp. It finally did the trick after trying for over an hour
Glad you were able to get it removed. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
I seriously was about to rage quit. Took me two tries and now I can rest easy.
Thank you for your video it helped me fixed my machine people like you making a video like this help so many people 😊 you should feel good and proud about yourself for this 😊 thanks 😎
Thank you, you're video saved me time and money. You are much appreciated.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm completely inept but I got it right on- my son did help by holding it in place at one stage. Thank you!!
You are welcome. If we can help you with anything in the future please let us know!
Of course it's easy when you do it every day. I gave up after an hour. I will just wait for the spring expansion tool I ordered off of Amazon.
If there is anything we can help you please let us know.
Than you the locking pliers saved my fingers
You're welcome!
thanks after 1h fighting whit this crap decide to watch ur video
My husband has been dealing with this since last night. This morning I used a flat wooden spatula and pushed the wire in with it while he held down the sides and I oops I mean we fixed it in two minutes.
Trust me it ain't that easy! I did have a repair guy recommend lubing the spring with detergent. I usually helps but today I'm on the struggle bus thus why I am here. About to give it another go with the locking pliers though.
I used a vise grip, pulled with both hands, my wife guided the ring in the groove and then I took her to dinner for the help. It's not as easy as it looks like in the video.
I used this method, but it took GREAT force pulling it into place. Not casual like the video.
Really struggled with this. 4 hands, flat-head screwdriver and locking needlenose pliers finally got it on it took two of us like 2 minutes and I spent an hour on it by myself.
I managed to replace the door switch I needed to do. Got that all screwed in. Go to put the spring ring back in and it seems like it's stretched out. I'm lost. I do not want to buy another part.
@@Planet_Shel get an extra person seriously that thing is impossible to put back in without 4 hands unless you really skilled.
We did it in approx. 2 minutes with two blunt knives by sliding the bottom of the ring over the knives into the groove.
Very helpful no doubt. Saved my day.
Cheers mate just did mines you are a live save .washing all the way
Thank youvfor your help i just fixed my defy
so there is a tool to extend the spring that makes this much easier...he makes it look easy, but its difficult if you are changing the door boot and re-using your spring as it is not a nice new part with a moderate amount of tension
Thank You, can't even go into explanation how I did this 👀
I used your method and it worked but why does the spring need to be 6 o'clock why can't it be another position
I cannot get my gasket to sit in the metal lip and stay while I do the ring. How does the gasket stay? And what does the ring hold?
Thanks a bunch. Great video
Helped thanks!!
God bless you.
Thank you
Sir you don't show where it goes on the plastic or on the metal
AWESOME! THANK YOU!
Very helpful! Thanks
thanks your players trike works !
I was about to go insane. I had to use a butter knife also
This might work for an LG/Kenmore, but our Whirpool $itch just won't cooperate. It keeps slipping off.
Our videos are generic videos to give you an idea on how the repair is completed. If your unit is a different model then it the repair steps could be slightly different. If you provide your model number we can look to see if we have a video geared more toward your unit.
thank you xxxx
Can any body tell me the circle should go on the plastic canal inside or outside
Outside but inside the groove
There’s no effing way that clip goes on that easy
But I can’t
They skipped some steps because it's not this easy. Only video of theirs that I disliked because im struggling still
Have been working for an hour on this. Still don't know how he F------ just through that ring on.
What is the model number of your washer? Did you get to complete your repair?
Yes thanks. After I had worked on that locking ring for over an hour my son came home, sat down with his bare hands, and put it on in about 20 seconds.@@appliancepartspros
If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
I gave up on your method and reversed engineered with a screw driver
Bs ive been struggling for hours! Its not easy! I don’t know what to do!
Bull crap that does not pop open so easy
I'd like to know why couldn't have made this clamp similar to the inner one with the screw attachment; would be way simpler I think! Everytime I think I'm close to getting it stretched over..pop goes the seal off the mf'n lip, more swear words, and off we go again...
Have you been able to get your clamp back on? What is the model number of your washer?
@@appliancepartspros I did thanks, after much swearing. It was on a Whirlpool Duet wfw8300sw04
Glad you were able to get your clamp back on. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
Freaking impossible
I highly recommend anyone not to buy LG. Worst engineering ever.
Samsung the same believe me
Crying pls help
