My husband followed this video and now it’s working like it’s brand new, seriously... I don’t think anyone would understand how much this has helped us 😫😫😫 I MEAN IT WAS A $5 FIX. WOW! THANK YOU

I have that EXACT MODEL Washing Machine! I bought the coupler, took it apart and noticed that my Coupler WAS NOT DAMAGED. I changed it anyway. Then upon re-assembly I found the REAL PROBLEM: One of my Pump Retaining Brackets was Rusted and Brittle causing the Pump to dislodge from the Motor during the Spin Cycle which made the washer make that "same sound" when it's not turning. I'm getting another Pump Retainer Bracket tomorrow and my issue will be resolved. Thanks Chris for pointing me in the right direction!!!

I work on family and friends vehicles and she knew your content would be something I would enjoy watching and very informative. I haven't missed one since. Though I can't believe I never stumbled across this one with the washer repair. I have a front loader now, but I remember working kenmore machines with my dad back in the day and changing these couplers. Wish we thought of a jack stand used a cinder block. Lol Still watched regardless of what's being fixed. I remember when the videos were labeled for difficulty and other changes. I'm glad you keep your older content, it's nice to go back and watch from time to time.

You rock, bro. I've been fixing stuff at home for a long time now, most repairs have been relatively easy but I'll tell ya - it often takes longer to find a video that is clear, fast and minus all the blah, blah, blah than it does to do the actual repair! You provide perfectly clear, easy to follow, easy to see directions with no ten minute intro featuring your dog. Not that I have a problem with people's dogs - I'm just here to learn something! The Repair Clinic video for this same fix instructs people to remove the case! Oh, my god, why? That's a huge waste of time. Also no need to detach the wiring harness, which they also advise, though at least that only adds a few seconds. I found it best for me to lay the washer down on its back. The rest was no sweat. I paid 8 bucks for the part, obviously up in price from 8 years ago. For people never doing it before, don't expect 10 minutes to fix, though. Took me an hour, but that includes cleaning the underside, gathering tools, setting up a light, disconnecting hoses, putting it all back. I call that a win. 8 bucks, one hour - thanks, man. I'll be checking your vids first in the future!

I was so upset thinking about costs of a new washer, giving up and ready to turn off the tv, then the next video came on “hey guys Chris fix here” I perked up so fast, seen a similar model washer and the noise sound was the same sound I was hearing, then he said it was a pretty cheap part 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🎊🥳🎉🍾 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽once again, Chris fix saved the day!

The farther back you can lay over the machine, the easier it will be w/o having to remove the cabinet. Beyond 45º worked well. The weight of the motor will assist in re-seating the motor to the transmission. I used a dab of dishwashing liquid on the plastic tabs of the coupler to make it easier to slide the motor onto the seated coupler in the transmission. A rubber mallet is a must. Not quite the "5-minute job" Chris billed it to be, but still HUGE cudos to him for providing this video and enabling me to avaoid a call to the Maytag [in this case, Kenmore] repair man! Thanks, Chris!

I have an older whirlpool top load washer from the early 90's that recently stopped working. It filled and drained the drum like normal but neither the agitator nor the drum would spin. The clothes basically just sat in still water for 15 minutes. Thankfully my washer design is almost exactly like the Kenmore in this video, so every step that Chris does matches with my washer too. I checked under the washer and found lots of shredded plastic and broken prongs from the old coupler. I knew immediately that I had the same issue from the video. Every step was the same as Chris described, except the coupler I used was really hard to get on the motor and transmission shafts. that caused a 15 minute job to turn into 2 hours. I had to use a hammer to get them on, and it still took well over an hour to get them both on. After that everything else just fell into place. I'm so thankful for this video, this video and an $8 coupler saved me from having to spend several hundreds of dollars to replace my washer. It works just like before! I'm glad there's a channel likes Chris' that encourages regular people to perform their own repairs.

That was one of the fastest and easiest fixes I've ever done on a washer. Like in this video, my repair only costed me $6.00. What needed replacing were the four dogs inside the auger. Only tool needed was a ratchet with a 7/16 socket on an extender. Thanks Chris for doing this fix.

I LIKE THE FACT THAT YOU GO TO THE SIMPLE REASON FOR NOT SPINNING OUT FIRST INSTEAD OF MOTORS, TRANSMISSIONS AND THE LIKE. SOME OTHER PEOPLE ARE CHECKING MOTORS OR PUMPS ETC. MOST OF THE TIME THE MOTOR COUPLER BREAKS & THE WASHER WILL NOT SPIN, AND IT WILL DO IT FOR THE REASONS YOU SAID. THANK YOU.

Ok, I havent repaired my washer yet, BUT, I tilted it back, put my car jack stand underneath and mine looks exactly like yours. I can see the couple is broken, so I'll be ordering a new part. You are the man Chris! Thank you!

I have been watching this channel since before I even had a car. I had no idea you had non-car videos. I got my first apartment that came with a broken washer. Who knew I'd get help from the same person who walked me through my first brake job.

As described! What an excellent and informative tutorial. EVERYTHING was exactly the deal.... right down to vacuuming around the dust around the bottom of the appliance. Thank you so much for bothering to do this. From Manitoba, Canada! :)

Excellent video Chris. Just the information I needed. These old machines are built like tanks - ours has been going for over 34 years! :-)

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!! I couldn’t readily find a repairman; watched your video, bought the piece and changed it myself. My girls and mom were so proud!😊

Thank you , this was the best video I’ve seen to fix this. I am a single mom and your video help me fix my own washer. No man wanted to fix it for me or they wanted to charge me $100 to fix, when the part was only $8 bucks on Amazon. Your easy step video was the truth!!! Thank you! ❤

Great video Chris! I especially liked that you recorded the sound the washer was making before you replaced the motor coupler. Mine is making EXACTLY the same sound. With your video I am confident of making the repair!

Thank you so much, I watched your video, ordered the part, came home from work this morning, and salvaged my dead washing machine in less than a half hour. Greatly appreciate your channel.

Great/perfect instructions. Mine was a tight fit, both ends, so instead of hammering on the cogs with a rubber mallet I found a large socket ( spark plug socket) that fit in the center and tapped on it. Thanks for the close-up photos and you were right only about 10 minuets to do the job. Of course, add another 20 to find the tools, something nice and soft to lay/kneel on and moving the machine!

On these days with 2 dollars you only can get a bolt and small size nut, It took more than 15minutes to raise up the washer, by yourself along.

Just wanted to thank you! Made my job easier with the car jack method. The coupler is now $18 ... but much cheaper and quicker than calling a mechanic! I also enjoy your other videos for years...Thank you again!
@joshuathompson75283 жыл бұрын
Our washer just quit spinning, and out loud I said “If only ChrisFix made videos on how to fix this.” Guess he’s not just a car guy after all! Thanks man, your videos have really helped me.
