This is the easiest fix you will ever do on a major appliance! Almost paid $1,000 for a new washer. Glad I came across this video.

@Het2010 2 года назад

Because of this video, I fixed my first and only washer and didn’t have to buy a new one. It works perfectly again. Thank you so much.

@davidhosfield6915 6 лет назад

This worked perfectly. I found when searching for replacement rods that the original parts are now to be replaced by new ones with thicker metal, so make sure you buy the newer one, not the original. Also, if you've had the recall repair done, you need to lift from the back and slide forward to get the top off.

@jamesmcginnis6707 5 лет назад

I didn't spend one single penny on this. This was a great tutorial! I removed the support rods, one at a time, degreased them, dried them and sprayed white lithium on the places where you showed. It works like new and saved me $$$$$. This would be a lot easier if I wasn't working in a cramped pantry and had an extra set of hands, but for 1hour and 15 minutes of work, it's no longer a problem. Thank you!

@jeffkazaka8721 8 лет назад

I ordered the suspension support rods and these parts came via FedEx in 2 days. I ordered all 4 rods. when I inspected them only one of the old rods was visibly bent, but it's probably like replacing one brake pad if you just do one. I purchased a small tube of waterproof grease at Lowe's for $3.50 and I was able to install the rods in about 20 minutes. I recommend getting so garden wire to hold the back of your top onto the washer and using a 2 foot board to prop the front of the top up while you work. Easy job for someone who is not at all mechanical. Thank you AppliancePartPros!

@OldSouleroMusic Год назад

Thank you for this video. I had the same issue. I called Geek Squad because I had bought my washer and dryer from Best Buy. Well apparently when I bought it , I didn't click to buy the warranty. So I had to fix it. I called a local repair man that told me each replacement rod was going to cost me $125 a piece. Total for them to fix it would be $842. I told them I wasnt going to pay that to fix a washer. It would probably just be cheaper to buy a new washer. I did a little research and found some new rods for under $100 for all 4. My 17 year old helped me put them in. It took us a total of 19 minutes to change them out. Your video was straight to the point.

@flordian 8 лет назад

My 2 year old Samsung Washer started doing the DC fault when in the spin cycle. The appliance repair guy estimated a $300 fix! After finding this vid, I ordered the 4 suspension rods from the attached link. Opening the washer for repair was a snap. My initial observation showed that the front left side rod was completely rusted from top to bottom. Found that the bleach receptacle adjacent to this rod was ‘splashing’ bleach all over it, thus the rust. Took awhile to remove the rust from the upper mount. Mounting the other rods took just a few minutes. After running several heavy loads, not one default. I was obviously thrilled. A big thumbs up for Appliance Parts for the video and the two day parts delivery....Lesson learned, use a no splash bleach and I think it will prevent future corrosion damage.

@appliancepartspros 8 лет назад

+flordian Glad the video helped you get the suspension fixed!

@JoeCullin 4 года назад

I just did mine, and found the same: front left was totally rusted. One other was a little rusted. Other two seemed totally fine. The ring of paint around my bleach cup is rusty too, but that's our fault for splashing when pouring I guess.

@Jose-xb6st 12 дней назад

$300.00 is a reasonable price for the fix.

@matthewwirsig3125 8 лет назад

Couldn't agree more with previous comments. Our Samsung washer was closer to 3 years old and couldn't finish a big or small load. We continued to get the dc error code. Parts were in stock and came when promised. The fix was as easy as shown in the video and the problem is gone. Saved myself a couple hundred easily had we used an appliance repair service. Thanks!

Thank you for this video. My 3 year old Samsung was going off balance and this seems to have fixed it. One note - my washer was part of the recall and Samsung sent someone to reinforce the top. After taking out the three screws in the back and popping the clips in the front as shown in this video, I was unable to lift the top straight up - I had to lift the top up, pull it forward, and then lift up.

@davemarco569 3 года назад

I just installed the four rods, per your instructions. Samsung sent someone in to work on the washer since it is on the recall list. They only put catches on the top to prevent the top from flying off. They never even bothered to change the parts that could cause that! My washer uses the 16350E rods. The tech said I would have trouble getting the top off. Not really. I just had to undo the two back screws and push the top forward to get it off the new hooks. Your video was spot on and I am so grateful to "Uncle Google" for sending me to your site. I will be happy to recommend you folks to others, for parts and this video. Great work!

Appreciate this series greatly.

@heitmanga 3 года назад

@@vishalmacwan3685 Ok. Grabbed some tape , glove and a scraper to pop the lid. The "curved" pins are towards the front of the machine on either side. You have to gently pry at those points (as well as the front) to start removing the lid, and then "wiggle" (highly technical) the lid in the proper direction to bring the lid off in the direction the curved pins dictate. I believe once you can see them, what I am trying to explain will be clearer. Make sure and protect your hands, as it takes some patience and would be easy to catch a finger or two.

@stevemcnutt3093 4 года назад

Great video, made the job much easier. WARNING: Our Samsung WA5471ABW was subject to recall and was retrofitted to resolve danger of the lid flying off. It turns out that Samsung's solution didn't address the shaking itself, but consisted of bolting the lid to the case internally, so you can't just push the clips and pop the lid anymore. There were two bolts placed diagonally from each other, I got to one by taking the back off, and the other by pushing the drum to the side, added an hour to the 30 minute job. On the bright side, the suspension rods solved the balance issue perfectly!

@jamesschaffner3310 7 лет назад

Changed all 4 rods. Last one was the right rear. That was bent in the middle. I probably could have fixed it by straightening in a vise. But I think the real problem started with the lithium grease fittings. All four cups at the top were dried hard and sticky. If I'd cleaned them up and applied new grease when the problem first started it may have kept the one rod from bending. Anyway it was an easy fix with the new rods. I just cleaned out the old cup fittings and liberally applied the grease as shown in the video. I'll put this on my household maintenance list to check every couple of years.

You do have to unplug alot of the hardware in the back panel or the hoses and electrical wires may get wrecked . Loosen all that stuff before releasing the side clips then you push it forward to get the top to essentially unlock from the front . Everything else in the video is the same .

The guys at whirlpool came up with this bad idea. They should replace the parts for free.

so nice video but how i know on of damper not working properly?

@user-kk1yf7rz1f 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video. Easy to follow along. I purchased the rods and installed them exactly as you show. For some reason the washer will not turn back on now. Any ideas?

@appliancepartspros 5 месяцев назад

You do have power coming your machine? You did plug it back in? Did the breaker get flipped by chance?

@user-kk1yf7rz1f 5 месяцев назад

Thank you for responding. I tried to respond to your question about model no but it wouldn’t let me send any more messages. I ended up purchasing a new machine after damaging the unit in my attempt to fix.

This is the most likely cause of the DC error code.

You might also want to spin the tub back and forth when its empty and listen for water in the upper sealed part of the tub. I found one in the neighbors trash and it wouldn't spin empty. The water was building up in offset pockets. I truly believe this was the major flaw, the seal had developed tiny leaks in the seam allowing water to gradually enter the upper rim of the tub. I just drilled holes evenly all the way around the upper tub and allowed the water to drain. I also left them open so that water can't get back in and stay as before. The tub being so off balance wore the rods out or weakened the springs so I removed the springs heated them with a torch and stretched them and then put them into a cold water bucket to "harden" the metal and I have a perfectly working $1000 washer. at 0 cost and just a few hours of my time to determine the issue.

Thanks for that tip! Good job getting that washer back in working order and keeping it out of the landfill. Often times, appliances just need some repairs, they're not dead yet. :)

Lol sounds like you drilled out the water in the balancing ring, intentionally put there to balance the drum during spin cycle by factory.

Just did our washer. It's been pretty picky for a few years now. So long as you have all similarly heavy things it'll go just fine but a little off and you get the DC error constantly. Easy to replace, out washer is different, wa5451, but extremely similar. These parts upset me though, they seem rather unsophisticated for their price tag. No wonder they don't last...

How to build sported box for low bass if you have preamp and epicenter

@leonewing1997 Год назад

Mine had two Philips screws holding the front of the lid down. Under the rubber bumpers. I nearly cut them off with my puddy knife. Otherwise it went well. Thanks.

Thank you for sharing your discovery regarding the screws! It really helps!!!

@citizendick6087 5 лет назад

will these parts last longer than the origional ones? or is this an every 2 or 3 year thing?

@appliancepartspros 5 лет назад

It's difficult to give an exact time range, because that depends so much on how the appliance is used and how often. Lighter loads and less frequent use will naturally lead to a longer lifespan.
