Question

Once I have the agitator out of my washer, how do I separate the inner tub from the outer?

Answer 1

WITHOUT KNOWING THE BRAND OF YOUR WASHER, I CAN ONLY GIVE YOU SOME GENERAL GUIDELINES.

    NORMALLY THEIR WILL BE TWO SPRING LOADED CLIPS BETWEEN THE TOP OF THE WASHER CASE AND THE BOTTOM--IF YOU LOOK IN THAT LITTLE CRACK BETWEEN THE TWO, YOU WILL SEE THE CLIPS, YOU CAN TAKE A STRAIGHT BLADED SCREWDRIVER AND PUSH AGAINST EACH OF THE CLIPS AND THE  THE TOP OF THE WASHER WILL POP UP A LITTLE, AFTERWORDS YOU CAN LIFT THAT PART UP AND IT WILL SWING BACKWARDS ON A SET OF HINGES THAT ARE ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE WASHER---AFTER THAT PART IS OUT OF THE WAY, IF YOU LOOK DOWN INSIDE THE INNER TUB YOU WILL PROBABLY SEE THREE LITTLE CHROME PHILLIPS HEAD SCREWS--REMOVE THEM AND THE INNER TUB WILL LIFT RIGHT OUT--REMEMBER THAT WASHERS ARE DIFFERENT AND SOMETIMES THE PROCEDURE MIGHT BE SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT, BUT ON MOST WASHERS,THIS WILL NORMALLY GET YOUR INNER TUB OUT-----PS  "DON'T FORGET TO UNPLUG THE WASHER----- before--- YOU START THE REPAIR"
