Awesome video and instruction! But it is the ABSOLUTE BIGGEST PIECE OF CRAP washer/dryer set I have ever bought. Will never buy more than a basic set ever again. Thanks for your video. Really easy to understand!!

[@downtoearthproblems]

Glad it was helpful!

@@downtoearthproblems funny thing.....I followed your instructions and honestly don't think this washer EVER ran so good. I almost don't need a dryer now it spins so well🙂😘 Thanks again!

The solution to your problem is very easy: throw that washing machine in a ravine, then buy a refurbished Whirlpool direct drive or Kenmore four-knob washer with mechanical controller, these old refurbished washers can last up to 15 years and wash very well, they also have refractions currently.

[@downtoearthproblems]

Where do you get these?

[@gtbike8142]

Your absolutely right, these new one don’t last more then a year or a little more before trouble starts

[@thedarkphire33]

I can honestly agree with you. I work on machines for a living and I refurb and flip old whirlpools. The 90s and early 2000s direct drive series. It's honestly worth putting the parts into those machines because they will last forever.

[@Miss_Tika1]

ABSOLUTELY

[@CaptainGanja]

Worst washer I ever had. Already had to have the suspension fixed after less than two years. Still have to make sure the clothes are perfectly arranged for balance and I only use delicates setting to wash with to avoid problems. What a total piece of junk. My old Kenmore washer lasted me for years before I finally had to junk it. Thanks for the video.

[@downtoearthproblems]

I was disappointed with my new GE.

[@TheStevengob123]

I despise this washer with every fiber of my being. The first time I ever used it (about 5 years ago), the belt slipped off. Fixed that easy enough. The water fill sensor can detect when the water level is high enough to know when not to fill anymore, but the actual filling happens on a timer, so if you have bad water pressure, you end up with too little water. No matter how hard you try to balance your load, it's gonna put the load severely off balance during the wash. And the thing that pisses me off the most is that the lid lock is guaranteed to get wet and malfunction, forcing you to have to wait for it to dry before it will run at all. It's a little after 3 in the morning as I write this, I have work at 6, kids have school, and I've been trying to get the first load washed since right after dinner. I absolutely dread doing laundry because of this stupid thing. Edit: I just want to add that if there is a laundromat in hell, the walls are lined with these stupid machines.

[@downtoearthproblems]

I also despise this GE washer. I worked on it over 6 Months. Take a look at my #3 video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHm6pZWCj9qJqJI

[@kathleencoonannoaeill4475]

[@MeeraRaju1111]

😂😂😂 you are telling the truth.

[@Miss_Tika1]

I FEEL YOUR PAIN - I purchased mine last February and it stopped spinning and draining or even going through a full cycle two weeks ago & I didn’t take out warranty🤦🏾‍♀️ and i actually had it replaced a week after the original purchase because it’s so loud and rough

[@gtbike8142]

I’m having the same issue with same machine, I just ordered a new belt, noticed a lot of grease on the pulleys, going to clean them of and get the grease off and install new belt when it comes in a few days

[@downtoearthproblems]

A new belt will work better but I got a better idea. Because my transmission still leaks. Here is my last video, after a lot of thinking. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHm6pZWCj9qJqJI

Great video!

[@downtoearthproblems]

Thank You

[@thedarkphire33]

What gets me as I picked up one of these for free for a flip project. after seeing this video. And realizing that mine is doing the same thing. I think it's just better to scrap it. What's crazy is I have better luck with the old whirlpool direct drives. It's the older whirlpools and maytags and Kenmores That I have the best chance of fixing and selling.

@@downtoearthproblems Ty for the video. I checked everything and since everything looks fine I decided to change the motherboard and the lid lock and the washer is now working. For some reason both pieces gave up together, not just mine, but my parent’s as well so they also ordered both parts and we are good to go now.

[@5hawks]

Can you replace the oil seal on the trans. bottom? The metal particles from break-in can ruin the seal. I glued a flat magnetic rubber "donut" to the new seal to capture any particles before they could get between the shaft and seal material. And you'd want new oil.

[@downtoearthproblems]

Thank Your for watching.-- Check Out Video #3 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHm6pZWCj9qJqJI

[@downtoearthproblems]

Metal particles should never be in trans. Quality trans need zero break-in. The trans is sealed you can only replace the whole trans.

[@5hawks]

@@downtoearthproblems My 1983 GE washer trans. had lots of fine metal in it. Still in service.

I can not get the new belt on. It seems too small! But... it's the correct part number!

[@downtoearthproblems]

The belt should go on rather easily as you are turning the pulleys, so possibly you have the wrong belt for the machine. But if it's the correct part number. I will try it again put it on the small pulley first and make sure the grooves are coming in correctly and then force it over the smooth big pulley.

Anyone know how to wire the lock mechanism so it just works and you don't need to buy a new one? Tired or replacing such a terribly made part.

[@downtoearthproblems]

I think you will want to see the final video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eHm6pZWCj9qJqJI Thank You for watching my videos.

[@TheStevengob123]

Unscrew and remove the punch latch from the lid and stuff it into the lid lock. Then the washer will run with the lid open. Doesn't matter if your lid lock gets splashed though. You'll have to wait about 6 hours for it to dry enough to run again. I'm pretty sure a lot of people encounter the lid lock issue and automatically assume they need a new one when they just need to prop the lid open and wait a few hours. If you've already replaced it before and still have the old one, try switching back to the old one and see if it runs. I'm considering buying a spare lid lock for just that reason. It's actually easy enough to change without dismantling the top. Just be careful not to drop it in the space between the tank wall and the barrel.

[@ephenj]

@@TheStevengob123 I had the actual piece of the plastic nub bust off that stops the lid from opening and apparently without that sliding shut in the part it doesn't complete the circuit just clicks then quits. Instead of buying another one I ended up taking it apart, then doing the baking soda and super glue trick. Then just re-made/attached old one that broke inside that horribly made part and filed down the edges so it would move even more smoothly with the piss poor electro magnetic thing they got in there that is so badly made it flops around so much it is probably the cause for most failures of those failures. The work around all of this is just a jumper between the circuit. All I can definitely say is they do not make them like they used to and that is absolutely bat shit crazy to be saying thinking back how quality was 15 yrs ago really wasn't all that good then either but at least the machine would last longer than 4 yrs.
