Not all heroes wear capes

Thank you! Google picture search sent me here, and thanks to your simple yet informative video I had it apart, cleaned, and back together in a few minutes.

Too bad there was no verbal instruction!!!

Thanks for a detailed video

Great video! Thank you very much, It worked

👏👏👏👏👏

Thank you, I will be performing this maintenance procedure this afternoon. Very helpful the floor keeps getting wet.

Thank you SO much for this! Would WD40 (which I have) work the same as super lube?

Does that mushroom valve have lube on it from the factory?

Very skillfully shown/explained, no time wasted, perfect lighting and camera angles.

This is a great tutorial and exactly what I needed to figure out our leak!

Great video... I had left a comment prior but don't see it. Either way, was going to report back that I did everything in the video and comments, worked for about 5 loads, now suds and water coming out again. Ugh! Totally stumped at this point. Any other suggestions? Was thinking of replacing the drain pump again just to see if that helps.

Great project!!( you can make hot-dogs on it off season 😀)

Are crimping tools same for end connectors and butt connectors used for splice

great instruction video, very simple fix and effective. I myself don't have the lubricant handy so I use vaseline instead :p

Great teacher! Thank you so much! Leaned from you, I have solved my LG washer problem too.

Thanks @northernhandydad for a great video that nailed my problem exactly! But, now you've left me wondering what you sound like... 😋

1:01 Yeah, you can put a screw through a RING TONGUE, but why would you? Doesn't the whole screw then become electrified? Aren't you supposed to put two Ring Tongues together?

Boring with no speaking

Thank you!!!

Nice helpful video bro 👍

Great video! I lubed the mushroom valve and it’s still leaking. I used less than the amount suggested for detergent and HE. Mine only leaks during the spin cycle and it’s just water not really soapy. Any other suggestions?

well done. Straight to the point.

Perfect 👍🏼 thanks!!!

Thank you bro. That's what I really needed. The same issue like yours.

I've had 3 different LG certified appliance repair guys come look at my washer in the last 3 years and not a single one of them even suggested to open up the top of the washer to investigate because the unit is stacked. I was told to use less detergent and switched to HE pods to control the amount of detergent. Thanks for the video, this explanation makes so much sense. Looks like I'll be fixing it myself.

Can you connect different colours together?

Beautifully done.

This is an awesome unit. Do you have measurements and details on where you got materials from? I would really appreciate anything you could share.

I did this but still leaks water idk what to do now 😢

Excellent

Great project. Could you provide a schematic for wiring? Would be a great help.

Thanks. Great video. Question - how often do I do this?

I just checked my mushroom valve and cleaned out gunk from near the opening of the black tube. But I noticed a rectangular surface (about 3” x 1” near the front of the top area. Appears in your video also. Mine seems to be caked with dirt. What is that and do I clean it?

A+ video. Thank you.

Thx bro!!! :)

Thanks NHDad, this is my issue, I'll tackle it with ease now. Blessings to you sir.

Thanks for this. It's providing a clue to my problem perhaps. I have an LG ventless (combo washer dryer wm3998hba). During drying it puts out A LOT of humidity (along with some smell, like slight burning of lint maybe?). Repair tech came and decided to replace the heating unit-saying it was too hot. But that did not solve the problem. Can wash and dry fine. But we don't dry due to the smell, which I'm pretty sure is releasing some particulates. From other forums, I now understand that this tub vent you showed is likely where the humidity might be coming from, and IMO may be related to the smell as well. And there is indeed a dry stain of soap/water that I see. It's been recommended that we put a lot less HE Detergent, so may try that. But do you think the humidity is related to a problem with the mushroom part?

So I have to lube the ole mushroom valve. 👌🏻 got it

@ Northern Handy Dad, thank you so much for this vid! I already had a case # opened from LG and I had cancelled it. I have 2-yr. old LG front load washer and after a wash cycle for only 1x king-sized blanket, water came out of the floor on the right front side (facing the washer). I opened the top cover, no trace of leaks. I opened the back panel and there is water on the floor on the left side (facing the machine from behind). There is no traces of water dripping from it's components. The accordion rubber hoses are all good. Then I came to investigate the air vent from LG's youtube vid where common leaks could come from. So I did your fix and lubed the mushroom plunger...and did the 2nd king-sized blanked and not even a trace of water beneath the floor. You're God-sent! Kudos again for helping lots of people who watched this vid. 😊😊

Thank you. Worked for me!

Can I use wd40?

Awesome 😎 I like it all in one 😊Thank you and greetings and blessings from Bangladesh 😊👋😎

Man those wire strippers cut a lot of strands off too. That's no good

What adapter are you using. My torch has a male end and it’s small compared to the male end on my propane tank?

Hi. Do you think the problem will come back? After the lub is gone? I have 4 brand new commercial washers having this similar issue. The suppler only told me to advise customers not to use a lot of detergent and I find this absurd and ridiculous.

Thanks for video! I just fixed my washer again. Making my sons believers that mom can fix her appliances.😂

Thank you 🙏

when to use bullet vs blade connector what is the best situation?
