i am recently retired appliance engineer of 20 years, the rear door seal clamp is generally nowadays a large thin spring that is slightly hidden by the concrete weights at the front of the drum, if thats the case the door seal will just come off with a good firm pull round the drum edge, fitting as a reverse of removal, place the door seal in the groove so it fits like it should, then stretch the spring and fit that into the outer groove round the lip of the door seal at the drum end, once that is done fit the seal on the front panel lip, then replace that clamp, check all is fitted securely before running machine
its one of those jobs that hard to explain how to do it, hope i have helped a bit, its easier to work through the front door opening than from above?
if i have please rate me
thank you

The door seal seals between the glass door and the drum, so the inner clip is attached to the drum. If you have the lid off you should be able to see it but it may be hidden under the rubber edge of the seal itself. Run your fingers from the edge of the seal where it attaches to the glass door inwards towards the drum and you should feel the metal clip. It will be a very big hose clip style.

When my Kenmore 70 series washing machine was spinning I heard a loud bang and then there was a cloud of oily smelling smoke coming from the bottom of the machine. It seems to work ok, but I don't want to chance more damage or something worse like a fire. Could this have been a capacitor that blew up?
