We're back in business, thank you! I have a Maytag Bravos XL, ~10 yrs old. As someone else mentioned, that middle plastic piece was difficult to remove and even more difficult to get new one on. I had to use a rubber mallet to work it down, but eventually got it

I got the SD(5D) code today on my Maytag bravos 300 washer. After taking out the tub, checking for drain clogs, put everything back, ran another cycle and it errored again. Then finally I came across your video…$27(from a local appliance parts store) and a few minutes later, error gone. Thank you and thank everyone who posts videos about how to fix stuff!!!!!

Sweet! Now we know this works for different models also. Thank you for posting. It will help us all.

[@anke148]

Thank you sooo much for making this video!!! I couldn't bear the thought of having to buy a new machine. I had used KZbin for a previous different washing machine problem and I replaced a part myself after the repair person told me I had to get a new machine. It took me a while until I found your video for this SD problem, but it was GOLD!! I replaced the washer hub many months ago, and it worked like a charm after following your EXCELLENT video. It failed again a few weeks ago and I replaced it again, Good to go again. Then about a week or two later, it failed again. I still can't bear the thought of having to buy a new machine - this one still looks new. I bought my 3rd new hub and just replaced it again. The problem seems to still be the hub, and the plastic ridges of it are worn down. When I take off the existing one, or put on the new one, it is VERY hard to get on and off again. Yours didn't seem that way. Is it important that the hub move up and down without a lot of friction? Is there anything you know of that I could do to lessen that difficulty? I used WD40, I also put some candle wax on it. Last time I may have even used some Calcium, Rust, Lime remover. Do you think this could be the cause of the recent fails? And, is there anything else you can recommend? Otherwise, I guess I'll have to get a new machine - can't keep chancing this stopping suddenly out of the blue. Thanks again SO MUCH for making and posting your video. Great work!!!

[@onebaddj]

Unfortunetly i do not know why some of these fail repeatedly now. The kit I put in my old machine is still running strong for the 3rd owner now. I really wish manufacturers would keep quality control up.

[@anke148]

@@onebaddj WOW!! Thanks so much for responding...I really appreciated it. A side question..is there any reason that part needs to be made of plastic? Wouldn't it be better made of metal, stainless steel, etc.? Again, thanks so much. If I have any other repairs I need to investigate, I'll be sure to look you up first.

[@tracybeam613]

Thank you thank you thank you! I just fixed my washer myself for $17. When the dishwasher and washing machine crap out within 2 weeks of each other, i turned to youtube to help me diag and repair both of them.

[@Easystreet208]

So I had the SD error and LD error as well! Thank you for your video on the wheel hub gear replacement! I replaced that with the 280145 part and I also had to replace the drain pump as well! 2 washes without any issue! Pump was $28 and wheel gear is $12! 10 year old Maytag bravos!

[@michigankidsKris]

You are awesome to take the time to tell us about this! That was so cool of you. I thought it was the pump again (replaced that last year March) as it wouldn't pump the rinse cycle. It won't pump the rinse/spin only cycle at all. It does the SD thing at 30-31 minutes left. Yours did it at that point as well. Saved us from having to buy a new pump and then after that didn't work a new washer! I also appreciate that your channel isn't monetized. For others the part May/2023 was 12.99 on Amazon. Took about 30 minutes max. No surprises. Pushing the new part over the metal spindle on the motor was a tighter fit than I expected. I was worried I would break it. To overcome this I took the old part placed it on the top of the new part (which was over the spindle) and pushed with my palm so it would go on straight and square. In the video it seemed to go on a little easier than what I experienced. It was tight enough I was worried I would break the new part but I did not. Again thank you for all the help!

Kept having the same problem with my washer. Went for a few days trying to figure it out. After some research I came across your video. You're video is spot on and simple. My agitator lock did not come out that easy. It was on really tight. Had to spray a small about of WD40 to help out with that. The new part was even tighter and I barely pushed down a 1/4 inch so I just lined the holes up then used a rubber mallet to carefully tap it down using that same star technique that way it didn't get all cock eyed and crack. Half hour later washer is back in business. Thanks for the video brother. Semper Fi

[@onebaddj]

That is awesome. Semper Fi brother.

[@jimconness544]

reason the part was hard to get off and hard to replace is that the plastic from the part being replaced was impregnated into the ribs of the steel shaft and had hardened. I ended up scraping the ribs of steel shaft to clean out the hardened plastic of original part. new piece still when down tight. All is well

you are spot on with this video, thank you for your mechanical mind. Just a note, my part to be replaced came off hard and new part was hard to put on.

Scraped the ribs clean of the plastic added a bit of bees wax and slipped the new part on. Thanks again!!!!!!!

[@stevenc.3340]

Thank you. We own a Maytag Bravos 300 Quiet Series (Year about 2011). We started having the 5d error code come on near the end of the wash cycle during a normal wash. We started down your recommended path and replaced the parts in question. In our case it did not directly resolve our 5d error. After some further research we determined that a piece of clothing managed to get stuck underneath the washer drum and the plastic housing. Luckily, we were able to pull the clothing out with a coat hanger but others can lookup how to remove the drum (cleaning videos) to remove any "eaten clothes". With the new parts and "eaten clothes" removed our washer is back to working properly. Thanks for your help and hopefully this might help someone else too.

Ran the rinse/spin cycle a few times then looked on the internet for 2 hours and found nothing useful. 1 thing I knew, it wasn't Suds causing the problem. I now think it goes to that code because the machine has the drain on when the agitator starts the spin cycle but because the drum is not turning the drain stays on for a while until it the program decides that Suds must be the reason the drain is still going. Was just about to give up and started thinking I'd have to buy a new machine. Thanks again.

I want to thank you for your video, I have the same washer, and just yesterday it came up with that error, I just so happen to have that gear from a previous repair I had done, i works like a new one now.

[@sommersaf88]

Thank you! My machine is only 5 yrs old but 2 kids in the house and it's dealt with cloth diapering both of them too. We ran a few cycles on the machine even tho there were no suds and its the same old HE detergent we've always used. I saw some stuff about it maybe being a slow drain so checked that out and no go. Was at my wits end and stressing thinking we were going to need a new machine until I came across your video. Amazon'd the parts just now and pretty sure I could manage this fix on my own if needed. This military wife does enough when her husband is away tho so will probably let him take this one lol. But thank you for sharing this!!!

Glad it helped!

Just want to thank you for the tip on trouble shooting this problem and the solution. Hardest part was getting that damn bolt out but I kept at it and fixed the machine..That inner gear only went down to where I could just get the screws started but I worked down the rest of the way by tightening the screws in an alternating pattern as you said which pushed it down all the way.

[@onebaddj]

Glad it helped out.

Took a while to find this fix. I was the correct solution to the problem. Thank you

[@onebaddj]

Im just glad this video has hekped. Every reply is badass. Thank you

[@onebaddj]

Just wanted to say thank you to all of you for the kind comments and the extra info. Wrapping up a divorce and selling a house so a little busy incase I don't get to your comments. Thank you all for the support.

[@brcj6687]

Thanks for the video! We had the same error code "sd" even trying just the rinse cycle multiple times. Thanks to your research I had a $13 repair instead of a repair bill.

[@onebaddj]

That is awesome. Glad it helped.

[@briananderson7119]

Awesome video. Thank you so much. Putting the first spline in was tighter than expected. Used an oversized socket and tapped into place worked fine. Thank you again.

[@onebaddj]

Glad it helped! Another win.

[@nathanbennett7978]

Great Video. It was exactly what was wrong with my washer. It wasn't oversudding like the code said. Glad I found you. It was difficult getting those plastic gears off as so much grind had built up.

[@joemedina9801]

My family and I thank you I follow your way God bless

[@WeroLoso]

Thks. Fixed in no time. Straight forward step by step. Up and running

[@99cobra2881]

Thanks for the video. Ordered NOS OEM parts off ebay, amazon reviews stated the cheap parts dont last very long.

[@smokeyque]

Awesome video! Thanks for taking the time to share. Saved a lot of headache and most certainly thanks for doing the 5 hours of research. I was at about 1 hour when I stumbled across your video.

[@onebaddj]

Im just glad its helping. I ever get this divorce over with ill be able to get back to helping people again. Lol

[@michaelspina6310]

Thanks for posting this, you are spot on with the issue. Only thing i would add is, the bolt was really hard to loosen on mine, my drill couldn’t even do it, i had to tap the wrench with a hammer to eventually loosen it...

[@onebaddj]

Glad it helped and thanks for adding your info to help others too.
