How do you open up a washing machine to make repairs? |
Answer
I think you either flip it upside down or take the back off, depending on the model.
Answer
Unplug the machine (preferably after you drain it)
On most 80's - 00's washing machines there are two clips under the control panel. You need to take off the end caps of the control panel (top of the machine where the dials are) if there are any, and then you will see two screws in the lower corners. Remove these screws and flip the control panel up and hold it there. Be careful as the hinges are delicate (ie cheap. Using a flat tip screwdriver, insert the tip into the hole you will see both on the right and left and it should catch on the little vee of the roller coaster looking clip. Rock the driver rearward (tip moving forward) and the clips should come right out. Pay attention to how they are situated before you remove them. When you are putting the machine back together, they just push back into the hole. Then make sure any hoses that need be disconnected are. usually on the left side is a sliding piece of plastic and under there are the soap dispenser type hoses. un clip them - remembering which goes where and tilt the entire machine cover away from the washer.
