Section 4 Component Teardown

Heating Element Removal

 
The heating element is held and sealed to the tub by 
compressing the rubber gasket between the two metal 
mounting plates of the element.  When the nut in the 
center of the element mounting plate is tightened, the 
two metal plates are drawn together compressing the 
rubber gasket.
1.   Disconnect the washer from electrical supply and
 

remove the rear access panel.

2.   Disconnect the wires from the heating element and
 

the drum water NTC.  (See Figure 4-97)

3.   Loosen the compression nut and pull the heater
 

assembly out of the drum.  (See Figure 4-97)

Drum Water NTC Removal

 
1.   Disconnect the washer from electrical supply and
 

remove the rear access panel.

2.   Disconnect the wires from the drum water NTC.
 

(See Figure 4-97)

3.   Loosen the compression nut and pull the drum 

water NTC out of the heater assembly.

Left Hand Air Shock Absorber Removal

1.   Disconnect the washer from electrical supply.
2.   Remove the front panel and the rear access panel.
3.   Remove the speed control board assembly. 
4.   Remove air shock securement pins by depressing
 

locking tab while pulling pin to remove.

5.   Use pliers to grasp head of pin and pull to remove.
 

As the pin is removed the socket will drop free.

6.   When replacing the air shock, make sure to position
 

it with the bell end facing downward.

7.   Lubricate the securement pins with Sil-Glide®
 before 

installing.

Figure 4-96.

This procedure is much easier if a deep 1/2”, 6 point
socket (or 13 millimeter, 6 point) is used to compress 
the locking tab of the plastic pin.  Push the socket onto 
the tapered end of the pin as far as it will go to
compress the locking tab.
