    Whenever you replace or even disconnect an electronic part on these machines, you MUST run the recalibration function (in diagnostic mode) so control board recognizes the new part. It takes about 3 minutes. Technician support manual is located under the top left front corner 25 - 48 pages worth!

    I’m totally NOT an appliance mechanic! I was visiting my daughter & her washer was only allowing a few things at a time to be washed. I came across your video on error codes & it was the 2nd video I watched & happened to correspond with what was wrong with her machine. I watched this video, ordered the part & just installed it. Haven’t tested it out yet. Here’s to hoping it is fixed! Thanks a ton! I’ve learned so much from RUclips. I was alive & kicking before the dawn of the internet age. What ever did we do without it?!?!
    Anyways, thank you for taking the time to make this vid.

    I did it myself, thanks so much! The only problem I had is that it would not agitate in Wash cycle while everything else worked. I learned that the 'peg' on the actuator needed to be intentionally replaced into the 'loop' on the 'pulley assembly'. (I don't know the proper names for all the components.) But yeah, I did it! So happy!!!!😁👍🤓 (ALSO, my old actuator did not look broken. I removed the opaque cover and the arm looked intact.)

    Before beginning this, i did go through the first video. I did get the same exact results from diag test. Sensing light. My question or comment is, perhaps specify to the audience that if that sensing light goes off, there is only one possibility- the shifter, because if there is more than one possibility and we go off your word, well then that is going to suck for us.

    **Repair completed today**- My model is- wtw4815ew1. I watched your first video regarding how to get into diagnostic mode. My results were identical. Diagnostic test results- Green light indicator on 'sensing'. Indicating a- the shift actuator part has failed. I watched the second video. Immediately ordered the part 45$ bucks, but arrived the next day. Used a 5/16 to remove the bottom cover, unplugged the electrical connector of the shift actuator, then remove the 2 phillips screws holding the actuator. Once I removed the actuator, I was worried. I turned it over, and the lever was not broke, it didn't jiggle, and I thought- FUCK! And I doubted you. I was pretty certain, I had just ordered a 50$ part for nothing... regardless, I put the new actuator on. Connected back the hoses, plugged the machine in. And when I did, no lights came on.. and it began clicking. ...... dam! O but wait, like ten seconds later- THE WASHING MACHINE ENGAGED AND FIRED UP.... HELL YEAH. Sorry for doubting you. And Thank you sir for the spot on information. Which is why I had to make time to come back and help others as you have, and do. God bless.

    Hi there. My washer will spin but not agitate. From watching your videos, it looks like the shifter/actuator must be broken. It's juts a small Haier portable washer (HLPN21) and I've already fitted a new belt. Do you know how to fix/replace that part? It looks nothing like this one, unfortunately. Thank you.

    So. I stumbled onto your videos as I have the exact same model machine. Ours has started dumping water out that appears to be coming from underneath, but isn’t doing it on every cycle. I ran the diagnostic and got the sensor error same as you. Was thinking about ordering a replacement sensor...but wasn’t sure if that will fix whatever is causing it to dump water on the floor. FYI, it only seems to happen on heavy loads like towels/sheets. Any thoughts?
