SOURCE: how to take apart drum assembly on kenmore front load washer

Is this a HE2,5,4 model? Can you give me the model number from inside the door. If it's a front loader. The only way you can get it out is to totally tare it down, cement, springs, shocks, and crack apart the outer tub. Very very labor intense. Usually if the unit is out of warranty, the cost of a tech to do it isn't worth it. What's the issure with it?

SOURCE: Do I have a stainless steel drum in my washing machine?

If the drum is unpainted and a magnet is able to stick to it, the drum is steel. If there it is shiny and uncoated, more than likely it is stainless. Checxk web site documentation

The Brake-arm under the washer needs to be replaced it is a white plastic moulded to steel (U) shaped artical connected to an electrical solonoid with a split pin it is either cracked or the nib is broken off where it locates plastic cog on the main shaft assy.Hope this helps.

No!! Don't get it! We have had the machine for a few years and have had several problems with it. We constantly get error codes when its mid cycle and it won't complete the cycle. I have actually gotten to know my Sears repair man he has come out so many times. Our current problem is that small items of clothing slip through the crack when we are unloading the machine. They are then trapped under the drum and cause problems including major mildew smells and eventually the machine stops working, The repair man comes out and removes the drum, pulls out the mildew sock or whatever and then its ok. Very poor design!

Spin Dryer doesn't work on Hoover 500M

Most probably the solonoid (also called brake motor). This is a 5 rpm motor that activates the drum to spin. I just replaced it two days back in my machine (Model 500M0AUS - you'll have to be specific when ordering or better take the old one to the spare part shop) which had a similar problem. The new soloniod I bought had a shorter cable length so I had to improvised when fitting. If soloniod is the problem then make wure the steel brake lever tooth fits perfectly in axle groove when you finish replaceing it. Do the replacement when the machine has fully stopped after completing its wash cycle.
Repair technician quoted 250 while the solonid costed me only 86. I did not charge labour to myself:)
Hope this is helpful.

Hoover 500M Top Load washer - Water overflow & machine wont wash

Probably very repairable but impossible to say how much without looking inside and fiddling around and checking a few things.
Fault could be caused by several possible faults at widely varying cost.

I suggest you call a friendly local white appliance engineer...
