Thank you! With this plus an additional video on how to get the stuck drum loose, we were able to pull out the drum, remove several socks, and put everything back together - no repair call, no replacement!

[@heatherpuca]

Kim, could you post link to video on how to get the stuck drum loose please?

[@mikedemaray1255]

This was the best DIY fix I've ever seen, and it worked exactly as shown. I would've never got this done without the video. Saved me lots of money and time. Thank you.

[@landonkirby7309]

Thank you so much for this video!! I just saved $1,000 by spending 50 on a Stanley 40-piece socket set and a ratcheting screwdriver set. Your video walked me through the process. You made it so easy to fix. And I can hardly fix a sandwich!

[@danwelliver7643]

Great video, very helpful. My Maytag Brovos had the green clips in the back so had to unscrew the upper fastener on each, then pull the top forward to unclip the front. My tub was stuck so borrowed the idea from another comment and cut a 2x4, 21" long with arcs at the ends to match the curve under the lip at the top of the tub. Used this, another block of wood on the center shaft, and a car bottle jack in between to pull the tub from the shaft. Found a few clothing items similar to the video. Gently filed a few burrs and rust spots on the shaft before reassemble. Machine works great now. Thanks so much for the video and all the great comments!

[@kgilsworld]

Thanks for sharing! We had an issue getting the tub out but we didn't want to pay the $130 for the tool in the link. After some different tactics my husband used a vice grip to hold the middle piece you put the tool on to keep it from spinning. My son held the wrench in place as my husband I lifted the tub and it came out with no problems! Thank you again for saving us money that we weren't ready to spend!

[@brianream9429]

Thanks for this video. F51 error was a result of 5 metal collar stays that were under the cover plate by the drains! No issues with removing the tub. Thanks for the detailed information!

[@Accurize2]

WOW! You nailed it. Found two wash cloths and 13 cents in the drain area. Now it’s running great and no F51 error. Thank you!!

[@dawnkirk6028]

A million times thank you for this video! We had a bit of a fight to get the tub to come up, but finally got it. Found underwear and 82 cents in coins -which were in the drain tube just like the video. Saved us a lot of frustration, repairmen are hard to come by in our rural area.

[@swizard0922]

Dawn Kirk how were you able to remove the tub. Won’t seem to come out for me.

[@MichaelRei99]

Dawn Kirk you could have used a hanger to remove the clothing without removing the tub at all!

[@dawnkirk6028]

@@MichaelRei99 we would not have gotten the coins out without the tub removal.

[@wpbasics]

Thanks my friend. Turns out one piece of clothing was the problem. I didn't even have to take the tub out. I used a hook to fish it out.

[@suzannev.799]

Big thanks to your video - all steps were correct for us, but almost all were very tough to complete. We didn't have a putty knife so used our Savor credit cards which are incredibly thick to push the tabs - it took a LOT of force and then we really had to pry the top open but it worked. We sprayed KROIL on the bolt, left it overnight, then used our socket wrench and hit it with a hammer to get it to budge. We used the Savor CCs again to lift up the plastic agitator cover by placing them as "handles" on either side. And we had to use a Car jack with a 1x4 piece of scrap wood we cut to size in order to get the drum out. We placed the wood inside the lip of the drum, the jack underneath and turned it until it came loose. We heard several noises towards the end that indicated it was beginning to come out so be patient. Eventually you'll get it. Found a penny and a small amount of lint. Before we put it back together we used steel wool to clean and smooth any metal pieces that were tough to get off, then we used plastic-safe greaser. After we put it together again we lifted it up enough to check on the hex bolt underneath. It was already tight so we knew that wasn't contributing to the problem. We now can run the washer without error. THANK YOU!!!!

[@kennyrubin2509]

Thanks for the car jack idea, worked like a charm!

[@reyrene]

BEFORE YOU TRY THIS, you should know that error F51 usually means that you have to tighten the screw at the bottom of the washer. Simply push the washer forward, then tilt it against the wall (no need to tape anything), and simply use the right size allen wrench (hex key) to tighten the screw while you hold the bottom so that it actually tightens. That's it. There is no need to remove ANYTHING AT ALL (unless you really got a suck or some other item stuck where this video shows).

[@DIYRepairsNow]

Thanks for this comment I also have a video Joanne that you can look it up on my channel thanks for watching my video 💯💯👍🏻👍🏻

[@suzannev.799]

Saw this comment after we spent so much time trying to get the drum out - was looking for tips. And at first I was like, "OMG, we did this for nothing" I'm happy to report your comment allowed us to check to rule OUT that it was not the hex bolt. Now I know more though and really appreciate your comment (we finally got the drum out and found only a penny and small piece of lint but apparently that was enough to mess with our washer - all fixed now).

[@guestmtl]

You make my Day :) by saving me time. I was about to jump for a second time into the excellent video of DIY (thank you for the video) finally after reading your comment i found that the screw at the bottom was loosed:( . I fixed it by following your instructions. Thank you for the excellent comment.

[@Oldpaint0216]

But . . . what is "the screw at the bottom of the washer"?? Any photo or illustration would be worth a lot. What does this screw adjust or control?

[@Oldpaint0216]

Actually, I later discovered what this referred to, after I'd moved from pulling the tub out and eliminating that as the problem. The F51 code suggested a failed electronic part that required coming up from the bottom to remove the stator. Unfortunately, while that took care of the error code, the real problem was a failed bearing, the cost of repairs for which came to about the price of a new machine.

[@benjackson1350]

Thank you so much for this helpful video!! My blockage was not an actual item but my filter had to be cleared so I used a high powered spray bottle with half white distilled vinegar and water to clean it as well, once the filter was clear it worked again plus I was able to disinfect along the way.. Thank you for you kindness to post such a helpful video!! 🙏🏽

[@DIYRepairsNow]

You’re welcome thanks for watching my video

[@roberttruesdell6151]

Great videos. I removed the tub no clothes. Removed the plastic piece on the bottom nothing stuck in it. Found the bolt that holds the rotor on loose causing it to ride low. I removed rotor to inspect it. And found the nut that holds the shaft and seal in place off as well. Retightens that remounted the rotor and righted the bolt. Put it all back together and it’s working now.

[@Traviecee]

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU! I had mine torn apart and pulled 6 pieces of clothing, 10 pieces of change and 5 bobby pins from the bottom. All finished within 30 minutes. Again, thank you!

Nice tool, someday I may purchase it, but today the hydraulic jack/board method will have to work, wish you had actually shown the position sensor as other internet searchs have mentioned connection issues. Have a great day, really appreciate the enunciation and directness of your instruction.

[@austinreish94]

Great DIY video on how to remove the tub on a Maytag Bravos washer. It very much helped me when my washer ate my neck chain and threw it below into the agitator and some pieces went into the slots and went underneath the tub section.

[@lisavalaire]

I love this video I was able to fix rather than replace. Thank you thank you. Another idea is to make one showing reassembly. Would recommend this.

[@qixidojo4176]

Thank you. That was exactly my problem and because of your video I had my washer fixed in 2 hours without having to buy any parts or call anyone. Much appreciated : )

I could not get the tub to pull out, but once i watched this I remembered seeing something black between tub and housing. Sure enough, I was able to pull out a t-shirt! How in the world do things even get in there? Running a load now to see if it fixed it. Thank you so much for posting this video. I'm financially struggling right now and could not afford a repair bill.

Thanks for the video. It was just what I needed to get my machine running again! Found underwear, a couple of socks, and a dishrag 😄. I love that you don't rush through the steps, so it's easy to just pause and do the work, then restart it when I'm ready to move on.

[@RegretfullyMine]

Extremely helpful. I’ve got it all taken apart and sure enough we found a few stray socks and washcloths. About $7 in change too. I’ll reply to this comment once I’ve got it back together. High hopes considering everything has worked out so far.

[@DIYRepairsNow]

Glad My Video Was Helpful!

[@RegretfullyMine]

Unfortunately this didn’t solve it for me, but I think I found why. The motor at the bottom of the drum is nonfunctional. I’m pretty sure if I can find a replacement part, that will solve the issue. Or I could just replace the appliance at this point, I’m due for an upgrade anyway. All the same, thank you for making this. I never would have found out what the issue was without your guide.

[@billpatterson6581]

Thanks you for the video, only a couple of things to mention, screw sizes are NOT designated by the head size or tool used to remove it. When you go to buy screws they are sized by the dia. of the threads. Luckily I had the Bravos XL model and the holes in the bottom of my tube are a lot smaller not those big rectangles in your model. So I did not have to remove my tube luckily. I did check the are on the outside of the tube had no clothes. So I checked the center screw on the bottom of the agitator by just tilting the washer a little bit. I found center screw REALLY loose I tighten that and no more F 51 code. But thank you for your idea of a tool to make and use for tub removal I may have to make one of those in the future. But instead of a plumbing 1 1/2 through wall fitting you are using I will just use some 3/8 NYLON or bigger cause it is easier to drill. Are the screws 3/4 or are the nuts 3/4, thanks dude .

[@davidreef3269]

You are the man! Found a few socks under the drum and the washer is working great!

Shelly Maybury Did you have to order your tub hub. Lowe’s looked at me like a crazy person

[@CharlesNolanArt]

As crazy as it sounds, i shook the washer several times then reboot it couple of times and it worked!

[@mikehalladay4451]

Tighten drum center bolt underneath the washer FIRST. Looks like a flat washer but has a hex head bolt in it. Lean the washer back so you can get an arm and a wrench under it. Finger tighten first as it is very loose. This keeps the drum in Sync with the positioning sensor. All done!

[@kparmstrong5758]

This is the best comment on the whole thread! You’re a lifesaver! Thank you 😅

[@CharlesNolanArt]

Are you saying tightening that screw may be all you have to do?

[@CharlesNolanArt]

After seeing this I inclined to just call repair man but if tightening that screw works I will give that a shot!

[@mikehalladay4451]

​@@CharlesNolanArtyep. Worked twice in 7 years for me.

[@milkmayun]

This post was quite helpful, at least until I got to the part where I needed a $165 tool to remove the stuck drum. That was more than I wanted to spend for a one-time tool, and shipping was longer than the Mrs wanted to wait for a repair. Couldn't find it anywhere locally. Did eventually use a grabber tool to fish out 7 coins that were beneath the drum, and so far the code seems to be cleared. I expect I'll have to replace the bearing soon, or else get a new washing machine, but this bought us a few more weeks (months?) Thanks dude!

[@jemlyn67]

You can use the scissor jack from a car trunk to remove a stuck drum. That's what I did. A bottle jack works too. There are videos that show how.

LincolnChispas he should show the machine not pre disassembled because it very rarely is that easy.

[@gerardoguzman5083]

I have had the same F51 come up twice. Through the guidance of my brother, he had me check the armature which is the plastic cover under the washer that covers the stator. The armature retainer comes loose due to vibration and backs out and pulls the armature away from its original position. I was advised to use threadlock on the retainer, but, chose not to the first time and the code recurred and found the same cause. I bought and used the threadlock this time and I hope that the issue does not recur.

[@jamesjames1716]

Great video!!!! Thanks for information and expertise.

[@danzei4862]

Thanks for this video. I followed this exactly, except used car jack and 2x4 cut to 20.75 inches and a 4”by4” small price to sit on bolt to pry up tub. (Guy has video in comments) Cleaned EVERYTHING interior with bleach and 409. WD40 and PB buster on bolt to accept tub when putting back on. (Toughest part was getting tub back on) Put all back together. Still got F51 with sort of normal to heavy load. Saw online that bolt on bottom was key. It was 1/4 inch Allen wrench on very bottom of washer. It was loose and caused F51. Other than bad bearings (noisy), I got a lot more life out of 15 year old washer. Thanks for everything!!!!

[@amberwalker1735]

Is the bolt underneath (bottom side) the washer or underneath the tub?

Hi, Very informative and easy to understand. Tx! This morning my Maytag Bravos has a F51 error message. I fiddled with the machine and after removing 3 water logged towels the machine went back to work and finished the wash flawlessly. I encountered the same problem with a second load that was too heavy and when i removed a couple garments from that load the machine worked great. So it seems weight is the issue. Any thoughts on what could be the problem mechanically? In another youtube video that dealt with a F51 error the problem was a dirty rotation position sensor, so it looks like many things can be coded F51

Hey this is an awesome video! We just moved into this house and have had nothing but problems with the existing Maytag Bravos washer. It will have an error code F1 when it is filling and then going through the rinse cycle. I saw on a different video how to get into the diagnostics mode and saw that the error code in the system was an F51. I'm hoping that I don't need to take everything out but, from your video, it looks like it is certainly doable. Who iknows what kind of crap the previosu owners have in their washer lol. Thanks for this!

[@connorjones284]

Do you know why once it's all removed when i lift the tub won't come out?

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

Why would the mfgr design a washing machine that eats the clothes? Anyway, I have the maytag bravo XL and it leaks water when water goes thru the bleach dispenser. I'm not sure if it's a hose or the white plastic junction block (?) the hose goes to. The design you used is similar to a bearing puller, or gear puller, to remove the bearing. I wonder if places rent them. Thank you for posting. Big help. I'm still working on mine. JohnG

What would make it keep jumping up and down while trying to spin? We have already took it apart but we didn't find any clothes or money inside of it. I am not sure if this means anything but, the tub moves up and down way to easily when it is empty. It does this during the spin cycle when washer is full or empty.

So I followed everything you said got tub out and all that. Only thing is I had maybe a sock down there but that's not the problem as I twist the shaft the tub spins on, it will spin free then stop suddenly as if something is still stopping it. I even did a different video where you take apart the bottom to get to the coils and they have you disconnect the relay or whatever it's called and that didnt work either...is this thing shot?

Thank you very much for the video and tips. Our issue is not the F51 code but the bearings that sounds like an airplane engine on the spin cycle. Similar procedure though, thanks.

Good info in the vid but do yourself a favor if your having this problem check the bolt underneath in center of the rotor. I spent two hours cleaning and taken this washer apart because of this video only to have the same issue and it being cause by that bolt backing out. Could've fixed it in 3 minutes.

I have a Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum and the top does not remove like this. It looks like it's completely screwed down and I cannot reach the screws. Any idea how to service this model? Model WTW8200YW0
