Hey man, I just want you to know that 10 years after you posted this video, it came in clutch for me. Friday night I got home from a rough road trip & within minutes of coming in the door, my washer all of a sudden made the exact noise in your video. My wife said it was the first time it had done that, and it was the 7th laundry load of the day. I found your video, checked it out, and voila! I ordered the part & got it 2 days later, fixed it, and now it's back up and running. These old 90 Series Kenmore "scratch & dent" floor model washer & dryer have paid for themselves over & over for the past 25 years. Channels like yours give ordinary blue collar people the confidence and know-how to get under these things and fix them ourselves. Thank you.

Born on November 16, 1977 in Delaware, OH, he was the son of Donald and Pamela J. Glass Newberry, Jr. Bill was a 1996 graduate of Lock Haven High School. He then served in the United States Marine Corp for four years. On June 19, 2006 he married the love of his life, Tina Palski Newberry. Bill was a self-employed appliance repairman and electrician. He also ran his own You Tube channel. RIP and thank you for your service.

[@zungruitelbitladnaternoche7305]

Thank you so much. I was going to buy a new transmission ($190) and now I just need a new coupler. Thanks to you. My washer, on spin cycle, was turming real slow while making an alarming noise. A repair shop sold me a clutch and said that if this doesn't work it's probably the transmission. I replace the clutch and it fixed nothing. I took everything apart and when I saw that the rubber part of my coupler was torn a bit. I research a found your video. OMG!!!! The plastic part of my coupler still looked like a round hole with two flat spot on it and it did turn the transmission when I used my fingers but when I took it out everything inside is rounded out except a tin place on top. I would have never find that out before it was too late. Thanks a million...

[@andrizeefoshizee]

Bill. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! My dad has always been the fix-it guy around the house, but yesterday, when the washing machine stopped spinning during my load of laundry, I felt responsible for the problem. I checked KZbin and your video came up. I ordered the motor coupler yesterday with one-day shipping. It arrived this afternoon and I finished the whole job in less than a few hours, thank God.

Be sure to always check the agitator to be sure it's working right as it needs to ratchet, catches one way and free wheels the other the agitator dogs wear out and if you don't replace them the coupler will break again.

I appreciate it. Next round is on me.

Thank you so much. $10 later, and my washer is back in business! While it was apart, I also finally installed that lid switch I ordered ages ago, likely as a result of another similar video. Good as new! I want to Costco while waiting for the coupler to arrive, and the cheapest washer they had was over $600. You saved me a bundle, sir.

[@partyguarder]

Thanks for the video, Bill! I had a problem with my Kenmore washer this morning, and the coupler had failed. It was not rounded out but one of the two plastic wheels in the coupler assembly had broken in several pieces. Replaced the coupler and all is well. One snag you might run into, however. When I removed the two metal clips from the water pump, the water pump would not come off. Upon closer inspection (thru one of the water hose ports) it was evident that the impeller was frozen to the electric motor shaft. I soaked it in penetrating oil and let it sit awhile, but it still won't come off. I suspect some rust jacking has taken place where the shaft sticks into the water pump impeller. Anyway...anyone here who encounters this same issue - and the water pump otherwise works and is not leaking - simply leave the water pump in place. Just disconnect the two hoses, and take out the motor and water pump as an assembly. Then you avoid breaking your water pump for no reason. Hope this helps anyone 👍

[@jameskamps8807]

I had the same issue with my washer, lol. I tried a couple of times to get the water pump to come off but then I left it on anyways but didn't disconnect the two hoses as they weren't really in the way. Both plastic wheels were both broken. I've just ordered a new coupler today, Should be good as new.

[@timroberts8103]

Thanks Bill! You saved me hundreds of service or replacement dollars! I was able to do the whole job without removing any hoses or dumping any water. I just tipped it back and supported the front and was able to get to and do everything. Your pre-test and post-tests were right on. Talk about a smooth spin cycle afterwards with the first new load!

[@kenhanson1819]

Thanks to your great video, I was able to repair my old Kenmore washer for just a few hours of time. Time mainly spent clearing the area around the washer to make some space to get at the motor. I took a gamble and ordered a coupler off of Amazon. What would have been a $7 part was free. It turns out I had been given a gift card by them, and the part arrived in two days. After getting the motor off, I could see that indeed, the coupler was toast. Odd in that mine was still fixed firmly on the shaft, but the plastic pins on the transmission side were completely sheared off, and my guess is that over time the rubber bushing had broken down, since there were tiny pieces of rubber all around the opening of the plate that the motor attaches to. Many thanks again, Bill, it's now back in business.!

Thanks so much for not dragging out the video and getting to the point So many others spend an hour explaining a 10 minute fix. ☺️

[@jeremyweatherford3922]

This was EXACTLY the fix that we needed for our washer, thank you so much for posting it! We would have easily spent hundreds of dollars getting it fixed, or dragged the old one out and a new one in for no good reason. Everything went exactly as shown in this video and the cabinet video except that our motor straps had 1/4" bolts in them as well. We were able to get everything fixed without tipping the washer back, although that might have made things easier. Hardest parts were lining up the motor to get it back in and spinning the pump shaft to the right angle to fit back on the motor. Thanks again Bill!

[@jeremyweatherford3922]

OH - and our old coupler was just plain broken rather than rounded out -- go figure.

Would this type fail be accompanied by a smell of rotten eggs/burning rubber and would it prevent manual turning of the tub?

[@Jumpermon]

Checking back in here on this with the results of my own repair. The motor coupler was broken and the rubber disc degraded. This explains why the tub wouldn't spin as well as the smell. I replaced the coupler with one that had a metal insert for the motor and transmission shaft. So far, so good. Thanks for the how-to videos!

Thanks Butch

[@andrewsharp4950]

For anyone else who may read this comment at some point, you should consider looking at the timer knob. Look for videos fixing that. If the contacts within the timer knob are corroded, they won't always connect and send power to the right parts of your washer.

leif vatne I just occasionally have to shift things around to get it to spin, so not really. Sorry.

[@bonnielaporte7554]

mine will wash and drain, but not spin. so I set it to the "drain and spin" cycle, and it seems to be fine for now... time will tell.

BRAVO - you made this huge problem a lot smaller - Thanx for Producing and Posting this...

[@timhanrahan9461]

Bill, As they say in golf - You da man!! My Kenmore washer would not spin and drain. Your door switch bypass technique allowed me to easily diagnose a bad door switch. I just used a little piece of insulated wire and found an inexpensive replacement switch on eBay. Many thanks for a clear and well done video.

[@renaemarie5695]

YOU ROCK!!! I thought for certain that I was going to have to buy a new machine! Your 7- minute video and an $8 part changed that. Thank you for saving me SO much money!

[@angelamilliken2900]

Thank you SO much for posting this video! I was able to fix my washer in about one hour for $20. I appreciate people like you so much! I couldn't have done this without your video. :)

[@AZ-mw5lb]

already checked lid switch, will see if i find anything similar in your other videos, thanks for all the help your videos have been thus far!

[@user-vj8jg5jm5z]

This was the clearest, most helpful video I've come across in a long time. Thank you, Bill!

[@js1529]

Thanks for this excellent video. I was able to find my broken coupling and replace it. This video saved me a lot of money on a service call or a lot of frustration if I had tried to do it without assistance. One tip I have is to check to make sure the pressure hose for the load size selector is still connected before you put everything back together. My hose came off and when that happens the washing machine will overfill. After pulling the cover off I discovered the disconnected hose.

[@OpenYourEyes7479]

I'd like to thank you Bill. I switched out the coupler and clutch for around $62. It's working great again. I didn't want to attempt the job but my wife insisted. You made it a piece of cake!

[@Tyler.254]

Lol bet you were relieved

[@dougjamesvandals]

Great video! Appreciate you taking the time. Victory of the Light!

[@AngelD329]

First my lid switch now it's the coupler, never would've figured it out without your videos.

[@MarkSWilliams27]

Bill, thank you. You are a really good teacher. And, I know nothing about washers. Very helpful!

[@jack4976]

Thanks so much! This video was easy to follow and helped me fix my washer instead of replacing it.

[@monicaflores7778]

Thank you so very much for posting this extremely helpful video! We repaired our washer and saved a whole lot of money. Again, thank you so much for all your insight :)

[@ericagillihan722]

I've been trying to find a new washer to weeks but your video saved me money. I think this is exactly what is wrong with mine! if only I had Googled sooner I would have saved time! thanks bill.

[@praiseHim1962]

Thanks so much Bill, for sharing this video. We have our Kenmore 80 series torn down, and this helped me determine that it’s not the coupler. Will get a heavy duty clutch (mine has only 3 tabs) and see if that’s the issue. Thanks again!

[@BoydCravenIII]

I just spent $7.00 to fix my washer. Thanks to you I avoided a hefty repair bill :) Truly appreciate it!

[@matt7johnson]

Thank you sir! Great video, saved me calling a repair man. God Bless!

[@primemover80]

Just popping in to say thanks to your videos I have repaired my washer. Thank you so much!

[@OJ_Sippin]

[@jqmcrae1]

Your Videos are super helpful and save me lots of money on repair bills! Thank You!

[@0num4]

Thanks for sharing. I diagnosed this exact problem on my washer about 20 minutes ago, before watching this vid. This pretty much confirms my suspicions. With next-day Prime delivery I should have my washer up and running by tomorrow or the next day, at the latest.

[@garthtennesen1217]

Thanks for the wonderful page and clip! I did everything as said. My coupler was only stripped on one side, so I turned the couplers over (top on bottom, etc) which bought time to order replacement on line and still have use of our machine. One question: I had 2 square, 2 inch long metal pieces fall out with a plastic bowl outer cover with them. One more of these units was still attached to the bottom of machine, but could not find where the other two went. The machine worked fine without, but worry if there is an importance to those pieces in the future.(?) Thanks again.
