Excellent tutorial, thanks for posting and sharing!

My kobalt quit.where do I need to look as in why it wont come back on?

Put the bolt back in about halfway and lift with the bolt. Agitator will lift right out.

Can’t remove the screw that holds agitator in place

Hey how did you get that bolt that holds the agitator so easily? Mine would not budge and its not rusted.

July 8th 2024 dads chain got stuck and with your help I got out it thanks 🙏🏼

Just did this in the process of cleaning it out. Your videos really helped me and saved me a ton of $$$ Thank you!!!!

Thank you brother this video was very helpful!! Just curious anyone knows what causes the gunk/build up?

Excellent video and instructions! BE CAREFUL!!!! When I cleaned my drum, the underneath was razor sharp. Cut two fingers to the bone and had to go to the emergency room. I recommend handling the drum with a good pair of leather gloves. Disappointed with Samsung but my guess is it's the Fabric Softener combined with the HE or low water usage. I have Samsung WA52M. A good cleaning and it looks and smells like new. Thanks.

You did well.

Mine doesn’t have the 10mm bolts holding the drum in just a giant 35mm bolt in the center holding the tub in. Couldn’t get it off! Need to buy a large socket.

Thanks alot for this video it really helped me cleaning mine out

Don't need to take the back of the unit apart...at least on my Samsung. Just take the cap off and undo the bolt...all good. Then clean.

Thanks for making this video. We were also sick of the mildew flakes and odor. Self clean didn’t work.

Thanks Dave! You gave me the motivation and knowledge to get mine done today. The scrubbing wasn’t easy and getting that wash plate clean is near impossible. I soaked it and gave it a rigorous bath. There is still soap scum inside those plastic grooves. Nevertheless, it’s 90% clean and still had a little soap scum after the self clean, but minimal after the first load of laundry. Shame on Samsung for this product. We shouldn’t have to deep clean this beast every 1-2 years. Thanks again brother and thanks for your service!

Thank you very much for the video. Great and genuine content

The gag after lifting the agitator sums up my impression of samsung perfectly

So I don't know how.to remove the water from. The drum even after I remove it from.the washer ... ... help please ????

Excellent work!

Good job bud. I have same unit. It smells. I pulled detergent drawer out. It's filled with grime.

Your videos were great!! Home project accomplished because of your help. Blessings!

I am having issues getting the drum out, any ideas? Mine is different then this one in the video .. I've searched so many videos. Any ideas??

I gagged at the same exact time as the person in your house. And that was just from remembering what i saw when i looked at mine!

Thank you soooooo very much! My son just bought a used set for me from a friend (the agitator plate on my whirlpool had a fight with a sledgehammer because it would NOT come off, LOL). I know not everyome cleans like I do, so I was prepared for muck and yuck. But I wasn't prepared for the muck and yuck after 10 wash cycles, and after removing the agitator plate (quite easily I must say), and cleaning that, so I came to youtube. You sir, just saved my sanity! I've watched so many videos tonight, and yours is the only one that shows from start to finish! I. CAN. DO. THIS! *my brother was a self made appliance repairman for years. Ive never called a repairman my whole adult life, and I'm 56. I would call him on the phone (I'm in AZ he was in IL) and he'd literally take his time and walk me through step by step of "how to". He passed in 2017 and then I had to find help on youtube. I've fixed my dryer, but that whirlpool washer plate was STUCK and I gave up and had my son get out the sledgehammer, haha. Anyway, your video is so very appreciated! I also appreciate that you didn't edit out the parts of video where you questioned yourself: that helps the rest of us when we get worried. I'm glad your human! I'll have my son get this beast outaide and ill tear it apart tomorrow. I'll come back and let you know how it goes!

Thanks, this helped a lot. Had a bra wire stuck in the bottom of the drum. Have no idea how it was able to slip through to get there.

Good video but this a joke of design

So tell me how exactly you got the agitator out of there really because you didn't just pop up with your hands according to part 1 fantastic scissors and everything else upon her to pop it up I guess that's the magic of editing why even make a video if you're not going to show how you did it

I appreciate the effort but some editing would be nice because I am following along making mistakes with you my man. Cut this out and only show the correct way please

You’re the real MVP!

Hi, we did exactly this to our Samsung and still get residue. What could it possibly be? We powered wash ours and scrub it all. Idk what to do please help!!!!

Appreciate the time taken to make the video 🤙🏽

I have two black metal clips at the front holding the top on. This isn't coming off unless I somehow bend these clips.

Question! Outside of knowing that it has to be unplugged from the wall, does everything have to be disconnected? Water hose and all?

Bro, im using a drill for the bolts under the agitator and used w-40 but wont come off. What do I do

My husband can’t get the bolt in the center unscrewed. He’s tried a few tools and it just will not budge. Do you think it’s rusted on? At this point he may have stripped it.😬 Any suggestions?

I have one. It won't hold pressure. The gauges do not move - at all. Motor tuns on but that's it.

I don't have a Samsung, but I'm hoping that this video is kind of universal for my Kenmore that's a top loader like this model. I too have been getting brown stains, lines and gunk all over my clothes and in the bottom of the drum. I've tried everything and nothing is working. I'm soooo excited that you shared this. I never knew that i had to maintain and clean the drum. Im definitely going to give this a try! Again, thank you so much for sharing your thorough step by step video! Cheers! 🧼🧺

I can’t get my agitator off it just crumbling the plastic metals

Wait, you skipped the part about removing the agitator... you were struggling and the video ended, then the next video it just came right out... i cant get my agitator off

If you didn't remove the back cover, I don't think the cables would have had enough slack to get the lid out of the way. So it probably worked out for the best!

So what you're saying is you have to completely dismantle the entire washing machine just to clean it out😅

Thank you sir, this really saved my butt. Picked up a used Samsung to find the debris coming into wash, thought I got screwed over. You made it look simple and it was really calming to see your broken down step by step (all 3 videos). And thank you for your service!

Thanks for the video.

Thanks

Thank you

Hi Dave. I know you posted this video a while back already. I was Googleing how to clean the washing machine and found it. Thanks a lot. Now, I ran into another headache. When I put it all back together, one of the sensors is not working. It doesn't stop filling up the water!!!! I will need to open the back head and see if there's anything disconnected. I am not an electrician!

Just fyi n samsung black flakes … i did these steps plus cleaned drain pump and drain hose. Still got black flakes. Have no idea where they came from unless its under the plastic tub.

Real helpful, thanks, much appreciated. Your camera guy did good too !

Great video. Once you clean everything part of the problem is the agitator, the round disc at the bottom of the drum. Samsung made the agitator out of plastic cover with aluminum, the two pieces won't come apart and it collects water, therefore black mold builds up in between and can't be cleaned. If you have an air compressor you can use it to blow air through the holes from plastic side, it is better if you let it soak but you can only blow out whatever is around the holes. This is a screw-up from Samsung. This part should be replaced free 6 charged since it can't be serviced or cleaned.

Excellent and very helpful video. One issue I've come across is when I was cleaning the agitator I can see there is the grimy gunk between the plastic and the metal of the agitator and I don't see any way separate the parts to clean between them. I tried spraying water through the holes a bit and some pieces came out but not much. Any suggestions?
