The metal ring that surrounds the rubber seal on the front fell onto the floor when I opened the door of the washer. Is there any trick to getting this back around the seal.
Start with the spring at the bottom, work the retainer around until the seal starts to pull away from the washer. Now grip the loop that the spring attaches to on the side that isn't in place and open the retainer. Push the retainer in place and release the spring.
Started with spring on bottom, worked the wire aound clockwise.. at about 2 o'clock, my husband pulled on the loop attached to the spring with pliers and I worked the spring in towards the bottom and then he let go and it snapped back in place... so far so good.. took a few trys though...

I also have this problem... tried the fix and it didn't work for me... I tried and tried but couldn't make the retainer ring stay around the seal while I was putting it in place. I hate to call a repair man for such a stupid problem, but what are my options? Before I take that step I am going to call a more dexterous neighbor and see if he can do what I have not been able to manage.
Can you tell me where exactly this sits, and, whether the rubber sits both at the door entrance and the outer rim surrounding the steel tub. i can no longer get access to the manual on the whirlpool site. Perhaps I should be getting a new machine - but not possible at the moment. Your assistance is appreciated.del
