Hi, the part you need is a coupler. Here are the instructions for this repair:
Normal
0
Removing the cabinet. UNPLUG the washer. There are two
screws holding the control panel to the cabinet. Most models the screw are in
front but, some models have the screws in back. They are on each end. Now raise
the control panel up and let it rest on the hinges. Unplug the lid switch
harness and locate the clips on each side (bronze in color) and release them.
Now the cabinet will lift off the frame and you can set it
aside.
How to replace a coupler:
Now that the cabinet is out of the way, remove the pump from
the motor and set the pump off to the side. Remove the two screws holding the
clips on the motor and remove the clips. Unplug the motor harness and on some
models you wil need to unplug the capacitor.
Now you will need to replace all three parts to the coupler.
I use a ½” socket and a small hammer to force the coupler onto the motor and
transmission shafts. Put the rubber part onto the coupler half on the
transmission and then line up the post on the motor shaft with the holes on the
rubber part and it should go on ok. Put the clips that hold the motor in place
and plug in the harnesses.
Put the pump back on and the clips to hold it in place. Set
the cabinet back on the frame. Make sure the lip on the front cabinet is under
the front rail of the frame. Ease the cabinet on the frame making sure the two
rear sides of the cabinet set down on the tabs of the frame.
Put the two clips back on that hold the cabinet and
plug the lid switch back in. Fasten the control panel down and you are all set.
Please let me know if I can assist you further.
Thanks
Vic
