OMG!! Thank you so much!!! My husband just fixed our washer with this video!! Paid 11.95 with the part from Amazon!!
I thought for sure we would need a new washer! Thank you again!!!

I've worked on these washers for years and this is the first video that I've ever watched that actually explains the HUB replacement process 100% correctly. I can't tell you how many washplate caps I've replaced because the three locking tabs weren't lined up properly when the cap was replaced. Mentioning to pull the tub up evenly with the six screws is a must. Great video sir.

Spent two days and three nights diagnosing, testing and watching other videos. This is the first video that said "do this", "twist that", and "replace this". It took longer to drive the round trip to the parts store than to fix my washer. THANK YOU!!

Thanks so much for this. We’ve had our washer for ~7 years and when it broke, I figured we’d be spending a ton on a repair or replacement. Instead I spend $14 on a part from Amazon. Installed in about 30 minutes following your video and it works like a charm!

Even got to clean out the washer a bit more than normal.

Thanks for posting!

AMAZING video! I can't recall how many videos I watched before this one. You're "hold the drum and try to turn the agitator" diagnosed the issue in seconds. Thank you for not only walking through how to figure out the possible causes of the SD error, but exactly what parts are needed and HOW to fix it. Parts less than $10 and it took me literally 15 minutes. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I am having a really difficult time pushing the bottom portion of the hub down the shaft. Any recommendations?

[leslieserna]

This worked! You saved us a ton of money. Thank you so much! The parts were about $34 from Sears parts online. Thank you!

[jonbrint]

Thank you!! Less than half a hour, exactly as you laid it out. I'm a "tool guy", but not a professional! I think anyone could follow your instructions!! Thanks again!!

This was exactly what was wrong with my machine. Great instructions! did it myself and took 15 minutes and less than $20. Been working great since.

Wow!!! 6 years later and this video just helped me with a customer! Thank you

You are a lifesaver. I changed my bearings and seals, put it all back together and got an Sd fault. It turns out that I left the small agitator piece. I humbly confess that I am an idiot. But you helped me out!

Great video. My tub hub kit did not slide on/off as pictured in the video. I had to hammer lightly and use channel lock pliers in order to get the (last) small piece with the splines off. Then the new one would not go all the way down. I used approx 1" scrap pvc and down the shaft to protect the new piece and placed an old crescent wrench on top and hammered the base of the handle until it went all the way down. It was hillbilly adapt and overcome, but it worked. Hopefully this trick helps someone else. We're back up and running for under $11 and the kit was delivered next day from Amazon.

This video was a great help. My husband replaced the hub easily following this! He had to use a pieces of 1 inch pvc pipe to push down the new hub in place. Washer is spinning again! Great video👍

[chrisnettles]

You helped me saved the day!
The parts were available at my local appliance dealer and the instructions were clear enough for a novice to install easily. Thank you..

[elieciment]

Amazing! Perfect instructions on recognizing the symptoms and applying a fix. I was told I need a new machine, then I saw this video. Two days later (once the part came in), we're back in business!

This was an expert video, beautifully explained.

[jimgentry]

Just completed this repair. The local parts store had the hub for about $25 and this video walked me right through the process. Washer working fine right now. Thanks so much for helping me save money and the aggravation of a repair service!

[alisonadams]

This is the first video that I watched, due to the Sd code my washer. I feel no need to watch any other. You hit the nail on the spot. Big, HUGE shoutout to you for posting this. If no one has told you lately, I shall. You’re awesome!!! Thank you!!

[dylanbui]

Excellent video with steps by steps on how to replace the Basket Hub. I had the exact diagnostic error code the repair guy said it was the control panel or motor and $400 to replace. I found your video and it was the basket hub for $30. Thank you so much for this video.

[DrRDPH]

Thank you!!! After 2 incompetant repairmen I found your video, ordered the parts and have a fixed washer!!!

[NAPSTEROWN]
