Washer won’t spin? Is you Kenmore or Whirlpool Washer Not Spinning or does it make a loud noise when you turn it on? This is commonly caused by the failure of a $2 plastic coupler and the fix is easy. It will take you 10min and you only need a wrench and screw driver.

T H A N K S !!!
On mine I lift the top door where you load clothes…there's a plastic piece that's connected and when you close door it keeps a little metal lever in place so the machine goes through cycles. You will see the hole and you can feel metal lever under the hole. I used duct tape and wrapped the broken plastic piece on top door…works good about 4 years now ðŸ˜Â
That's a funny-looking car ðŸ¤â€
for real though I have the exact same washing machine and really hope this video doesn't come in handy lol
I am gonna try it today Chris thanks ðŸ˜Å
Thank you for your patient instructions. My son and I are going to try to fix our washer, wish us luck
Shut off the wooder !
The most obvious cause is the belt broke or came off. It can be found underneath the washing machine for people reading this. Doesn't always mean something actual broke.
It's not pretty much any washer, it's only the older direct drives that use couplings. The cabinet can be removed easy to make this job much faster as well. Remove the plastics on either side of the console, they just pull off. Remove two screws, remove brass clips and disconnect the harness for your lid switch. With the cabinet off you can access everything with ease.
Thank You very much Dude God bless You
Very nice work!!!!
I searched this morning and didn't get any video that started with "if its making this noise" .
Lots and lots of trouble shooting guide stuff, could be this, could be that, but nothing with noise.
I look again tonight after thinking I may need transmission or whos knows what else, and I find your video. Boom that's the problem… I love this guy.
Very precise instruction and you get right to it with no wasted word or video. Slightly tighter in there than it appeared, and I'm not sure I would have got that motor out. Pump removal, 2 screws, not easy to find without your help. I'm a Red Seal Millwright and Maintenance Planner.

CHRIS……GENIOUS! Your video made our life fulfilled. Soooo Happy!
Great video but it took me much longer, especially putting it back together.
MANY thanks!!!!!!!!!!! WORKED PERFECT AND SAVED MUCH $$$$$$$$-
Hey Chris, love the tip for the jack stand. So simple but really a great idea. Thanks for the video.
Jack stand…awesome. chris fix. Love it.
Thank you Chris in 2014, you just saved me big time in 2021!! (seriously, this was exactly our issue and our washing machine is back and better than ever thanks to this video!)
I owe you at least one case of beer. I couldn't get a repair company to come out to fix our washer. We have three adults and one newborn baby in the house, we needed our washing machine. Your diagnosis was spot on. The Amazon part number was right. Your step-by-step instructions where also spot on. The only difference in my machine was that there were only clips and not bolts holding everything together. 10 minutes start to finish. Thanks Again!
5 years later and this is my exact issue and fix. Good to go!
Is this piece for any washing machine, or a particular brand?
Looking up this is part ans found a this was as easy as you said thanks
Thanks for the helpful video. Our washer wasn’t draining I saw this video and bought the motor coupler which was very cheap and changed it myself. Very simple fix. Saved us from buying a whole new washer! Washer works great again. Thank you
Hey Chris, do all Washing machine have a motor coupler? I have the Whirlpool Cabrio and seem to find the coupler
Of course my washer would be a full-on panel puzzle! Maybe I break it and buy a new one….
Thanks. First video I checked and looks like my same washer. Couldn't believe it and then you did a better job on video and explanation that the appliance pro folks.
Ok, I havent repaired my washer yet, BUT, I tilted it back, put my car jack stand underneath and mine looks exactly like yours. I can see the couple is broken, so I'll be ordering a new part. You are the man Chris! Thank you!
Repairman promised to come by today and failed to show-up (go figure!!). So, Plan B, ChirisFix video to the rescue! Didi it myself and now everything is A-OK!! Thanks Chris!ðŸ‘Â
Y quedo como nueva papa' ðŸ‘Â
HEY!!! You saved me a ton of money and time!!! Thanks
Thanks you just saved me $200!!
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.
Thank you soo much.
My washing machine just had this problem. Been following you for while. Never thought you made a washer video. You were the first video when I searched. Has worked so far, just waiting on the part to come in. And yes the jack stands are holding my machine up.
Good day.Thank you MEN.I can change our broken SPIN because of you.We both the same TROUBLESHOOTING👈ðŸÂ‡ðŸ—¿ðŸ‘ˆÂ®UEL🇰🇷🇺🇸🇰🇷®
Yeah
I have the same washer..mine is only turning clockwise..not agitating like it should..also makes a loud noise when draining on spinning mode..plz help what can it be
Glad I took the cabinet off my washer before I watched this. Now I get more time to appreciate this video while I remount that. And then I get to replace my coupler.
My man Chris, I’ve a subscriber to your channel for a minute now. I found out something about you that I had no idea about. I’ve thought this whole time that you only had a hand in the car fixing world. My washer took a dump and guess who I bumped into while I was looking for repair videos. You got it my guy!!! YOU. I just had to reach out to give you a big shout and props man. Just one question? What the heck man? Some of us I’m sure would like to connect the face to the handS and voice. Lol. Keep doing you my man!!!
I fixed mine with your video thanks so much guy at the store told me I was saving $200 but now it’s leaking oil… why do you think??
Having difficulty finding a place that sells the part. Will prob have to end up buying a whole machine
Hey ChrisFix, thank you for posting this video! I fixed my washer and my wife is happy!
Very nice, and easy thank you very much
