It's been years since this video was originally uploaded, but just know you are still making a difference in the lives of ordinary diy people! I identified the issue thanks to your video, Chris, and my husband was able to change the part after a next day Amazon shipment. We were then able to leave for our NYC trip without worrying about what to do once we got home. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us!

You probably will never see this comment but seriously THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! We have a baby due in two weeks and haven’t been able to laundry in a week. We just moved into a duplex so we’d have more space but had to buy our own washer and dryer. Could only afford a $135 used set and just about broke down because the washer wasn’t spinning. My husband followed this video and now it’s working like it’s brand new, seriously... I don’t think anyone would understand how much this has helped us 😫😫😫 I MEAN IT WAS A $5 FIX. WOW! THANK YOU

You rock, bro. I've been fixing stuff at home for a long time now, most repairs have been relatively easy but I'll tell ya - it often takes longer to find a video that is clear, fast and minus all the blah, blah, blah than it does to do the actual repair! You provide perfectly clear, easy to follow, easy to see directions with no ten minute intro featuring your dog. Not that I have a problem with people's dogs - I'm just here to learn something! The Repair Clinic video for this same fix instructs people to remove the case! Oh, my god, why? That's a huge waste of time. Also no need to detach the wiring harness, which they also advise, though at least that only adds a few seconds. I found it best for me to lay the washer down on its back. The rest was no sweat. I paid 8 bucks for the part, obviously up in price from 8 years ago. For people never doing it before, don't expect 10 minutes to fix, though. Took me an hour, but that includes cleaning the underside, gathering tools, setting up a light, disconnecting hoses, putting it all back. I call that a win. 8 bucks, one hour - thanks, man. I'll be checking your vids first in the future!

I have an older whirlpool top load washer from the early 90's that recently stopped working. It filled and drained the drum like normal but neither the agitator nor the drum would spin. The clothes basically just sat in still water for 15 minutes. Thankfully my washer design is almost exactly like the Kenmore in this video, so every step that Chris does matches with my washer too. I checked under the washer and found lots of shredded plastic and broken prongs from the old coupler. I knew immediately that I had the same issue from the video. Every step was the same as Chris described, except the coupler I used was really hard to get on the motor and transmission shafts. that caused a 15 minute job to turn into 2 hours. I had to use a hammer to get them on, and it still took well over an hour to get them both on. After that everything else just fell into place. I'm so thankful for this video, this video and an $8 coupler saved me from having to spend several hundreds of dollars to replace my washer. It works just like before! I'm glad there's a channel likes Chris' that encourages regular people to perform their own repairs.

I've been watching your videos for over 5 years. My sister actually was the one that mentioned watching them as she saw your videos on how to super clean the windshield. I work on family and friends vehicles and she knew your content would be something I would enjoy watching and very informative. I haven't missed one since. Though I can't believe I never stumbled across this one with the washer repair. I have a front loader now, but I remember working kenmore machines with my dad back in the day and changing these couplers. Wish we thought of a jack stand used a cinder block. Lol Still watched regardless of what's being fixed. I remember when the videos were labeled for difficulty and other changes. I'm glad you keep your older content, it's nice to go back and watch from time to time.

Although it took me 2 hours because I couldn’t align the motor back (I ended up putting the coupler directly into the machine and not the motor), I made it work!!!! The whirlpool design isn’t as good as the kenmore one. I had to ask my brother to hold the white plastic pump the entire time lol. Thank you thank you!

Thanks for the vid, Chris. This is why it's awesome to have a back-catalog of your old stuff -- there are still a TON of these old Kenmore washers around, and they're increasingly likely to need this type of simple repair. This is why I've watched your channel go from barely 5 digits, to nearly 5 million subs.

The farther back you can lay over the machine, the easier it will be w/o having to remove the cabinet. Beyond 45º worked well. The weight of the motor will assist in re-seating the motor to the transmission. I used a dab of dishwashing liquid on the plastic tabs of the coupler to make it easier to slide the motor onto the seated coupler in the transmission. A rubber mallet is a must. Not quite the "5-minute job" Chris billed it to be, but still HUGE cudos to him for providing this video and enabling me to avaoid a call to the Maytag [in this case, Kenmore] repair man! Thanks, Chris!

My washer just broke yesterday, it makes a horrifying grinding noise, I researched it and couldn’t quite describe my issue to get the right results. I looked at one video, it was replacing something up top with the control board. I was so upset thinking about costs of a new washer, giving up and ready to turn off the tv, then the next video came on “hey guys Chris fix here” I perked up so fast, seen a similar model washer and the noise sound was the same sound I was hearing, then he said it was a pretty cheap part 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🙌🏽🎊🥳🎉🍾 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽once again, Chris fix saved the day! I had no idea he had this type of content. I’m so happy. Please, Never stop repairing things bc you are out here saving lives! I am grateful.

Thanks! I am going to order the part right now. I have a jack stand in the basement because my son left it there many years ago. Thanks again. I am a 69 year old female. You make it look not too difficult. I love the way you explain as if you are talking to a novice. Some people know their stuff but don't know how to teach it to others. Great work. I hope this works for me. I will update when I am done.

@@SwagJaws It works fine now. I used the jackstand and but I didn't have to purchase the part. I removed both hoses from the motor/filter. I couldn't see any obstruction so I blew on the hoses. The one that goes to the outside drain hose, had some resistance and I blew until there was none. I reassembled the unit and it works great. Thanks.

I looked up videos and figured out it was the coupler, but they had me thinking I had to take the control panel off and remove the outer shell or whatever. Soon as I got the coupler, I went back to KZbin to follow the steps, and I found your video. You saved me alot of time, and I now have clean underwear. Many thanks.

Saved my washing machine thanks to you!! I thought it was done after 20 yrs. The part was $16 at a local shop. I didn't want to wait for the $8 coupler on Amazon ( side note- the part sizing was off, and used the old part for side that didn't level out). Took me longer 30-40 min because of lack of tools and space. Glad I was able to diagnose and repair it because of your video!
