  • If your washer will not spin or spins slowly and does not wring all the water out then a worn clutch is likely the cause of the problem. Sometimes you hear a whining noise too. Another component on this model that could cause a no spin issue is a worn drive block.

  • Just wanted to say "Thanks a million" It was so easy, literally 10 minutes. Washer spins like new now (I didn't realize how slow it was getting). Saved me about 400 bucks for a new one!

  • Thank you so much! It's working just fine....

  • Awesome video. You saved me a lot of time. This was well done. If you are replacing a clutch, this is the video to watch.

  • sucesss! just changed the clutch on my inglis washing machine, spins like new. thanks 4 the video

    

  • perfect step by step instructions! Thanks for posting this video...$52.96 after tax & we're back in action!

  • For clarity: The symptoms on my washer were EVERYTHING worked great except over time the spin got slower and slower, then stopped completely. No weird noises, it washed, filled, drained, all OK. But would not spin. The motor was running normal, but the tub would not spin. The old clutch did not look THAT bad, but as soon as I tested the new one it spins like crazy new. Repair is NOT that hard, clutch can be found local for $40-$50, or order from these guys. Good people!

  • This was great! Straight forward and concise..Who would hit dislike on this vid??

  • This was great! Thanks so much! The only challenge I had was that my agitator had an extra piece that I had to get off to get to the nut/bolt. But you empowered me!

  • repair clinic rules!!!
