I cannot express how perfect this video is. I'm buying the part from you instead of the box store.
It's clear, concise, and through. I can clearly see each step in the process. You point out helpful observations, steps and recommendations without going off on a tangent. I watched this whole video and I did not once feel the urge to skip ahead. Nor did I think, "Wait, how did they do that?". I will watch any video you make about anything. Thank you kindly.
“Hey lets make a stacking washer and dryer and then require the whole top of the washer to come off for a repair”
5-STAR Rating! This was by far the most complete and accurate video on how to do this repair I have seen on RUclips. I particularly liked your demonstration of how to install the outer bellows clamp. The number one complaint I have seen posted by others attempting to do this repair is that the outer clamp is a royal pain in the a** to install. You made it easy! Many thanks!
What made it even better for me was the washer you used in the video is the same washer I have in my home. 🤠- Richie
You are the goat! Perfect video- right to the point, clear & consise instructions. Thank you for your time and effort!
You are very welcome. Glad we were able to help you out. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
@@appliancepartspros thank you! Have a good one ☺️
Thank you so much for this comprehensive and easy to follow tutorial! Saved my family having to replace the unit with 45 mins of work and an $80 replacement part. I can't thank ya enough!
Thank you!! Great video, as a 26 year old woman with no experience I was able to complete this in just under an hour.
Glad we could help you with your repair!
Great job Matt! This is the second time in 13 years I’ve replaced the bellows seal. The latest seal I purchased is a different type of rubber…don’t know what it is but it’s stickier and seems like it’s a better material for a seal. You guys keep making these great how tos and I’ll keep buying your parts.
Best vid on this subject! Up close videos w/commentary. Figuring out the proper alignment of the bellow is WAY more difficult than it appears to be due do the multiple grooves. Take pics of current bellow before removal for reference. Well done!
Great video! Walked through the process in a most excellent way. That outer seal spring was the hardest part. Definitely remember to pull the spring towards the side of washer in plane with the groove!
All I can say is Matt must have Super Hero arm strength. I was able to do everything he showed us, except for re-installing that wire/spring on the front of the bellows. I tried for hours and just could not do it. Someone recommended using needle nose pliers, put them through the connecting “hole” in the wire and pull the pliers toward the side, similar to what Matt does with the vice grips. I then used some plastic spanners ( for mounting bicycle tires onto rims), and that helped slip the wire over the rim the rest of the way. I’m running a test load now and so far no leaks. Thank you for making this video!
Thank you for helping a newbie like me, get this job done correctly! Your content is first rate.
You are very welcome!
Great video! Ordered the parts from your website and was able to change the bellow seal on my whirlpool duet washer using your video. Saved me $300 bucks a tecj would have charged me to replace it.
Thank you! Very clear, concise directions and video. Pace was excellent. I was able to make the repair in 30 minutes.
Excellent video, shows all the steps with all the necessary details. Helped us do the job with no complications. Thank you
You are welcome. Glad you were able to complete your repair. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
Excellent demonstration! We were able to this without one fumble after watching it. Thank you!
This is a great video, repaired my door seal and used your video on shock replacment as well. Thank you, save me a bunch of cash.
Thank you for making this video! It was a great help. The outer seal ring was easier for me to remove using needle-nose pliers on the little loop where the spring is connected.
Good job on the camera and the presenter/technician is pleasant to listen to and I appreciate when he pointed to areas or screw to be taken care of. Thank you for the series of "How-To's"
Glad the video helped you get the washer fixed!
Big thanks, great job, great vidéo, very clear directions thank you👍
Great video! Explains everything step by step.
Helpful and easy to follow, I did it! It might be good to add a test run at the end with things to check if it leaks
Excellent video! Thank you for the help!
Thanks for the help! I have never been a handy guy, but this helped me a LOT!

Great clear instruction👍👍👍
Glad we were able to help. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.
Your videos help me so much thank you
thanks for the instructions. i didn't have to take off the top panel. this was signifixant as I have mine stacked with dryer. also I use a drill for the screws much speedier.
This video was amazing!! thank you
You're welcome! Glad to hear our video was helpful.
realy a brilliant technician camera man and excelent team who work and give us good knowledge
i appriciate
Thank you! We're glad our videos have been helpful.
Notice that they edited out the 20 minutes of swearing and slamming when Matt installed the new boot. Many of these guys suggest putting a lubricant (dishwasher soap) on the boot so it slips on easily. DON'T DO IT!. I put a little dishwasher soap on just the BOTTOM of washer door rim. That way the boot doesn't slip off when I start at the top and work around. Once I got it on about halfway, I found that I could lean my shoulder against one side leaving both hands free to work the other side. I also found by reaching inside the drum I could pull the boot inward to make it slip over the rim. Once it's on, don't mess with it. Get that band on fast and tighten.
Regarding the outer spring band. They sell a tool for about $45. Don't waste your money. The key is keeping the band deep in its slot. As you work around and it's 2/3 on, stretch the spring by pulling on the band while holding the other side of the spring. Two people can do this better. If you can't grip the band/spring, tie a strong string in the spring loop and make a handle for the other end of the string from a piece of tubing. Once you get the band on carefully cut the string off the spring.
Thanks for the tips.
this video is crazy good. thanks.
Great video. This is the exact same washer I have!
Good video!
Great video
Completed this today. Can't stress enough on the final spring re-installation USE LOCKING PLIERS and pull CLEARLY TO THE RIGHT, NOT DOWN. Also, this door bellow seal is an expensive part! Cost us about $86.85 on Amazon. Great video though!
Even just a pair of Gerbers. Some kind of pliers to stretch the spring
Thank you so much for the video!
You're welcome!
great video, thank you so much!
You're welcome!
Great video and very easy to follow! Thank you! I do have one question, the inner portion of the seal is rubbing against the drum and leaving tiny rubber residue, is this normal the first couple times after installation? Thanks in advance.
Great video Thank you
You are very welcome!
Very nice and good 👍
Thank you. I had it all done except clamping the outer ring until I saw how you pulled it out with the wrench.
Thanks for this video, I replaced my bellow no problem (except getting that outer ring back on was a bit challenging!)
Glad the video helped you get the washer fixed!
Yeah I think there’s a reason the camera cut off and then back on just as he finished. It’s a pain getting it back on.
This wasn't too bad once i figured out how to get the seal to seat (& stay seated) on the tub side. Thanks from Bob my appliance guy who didn't charge me to not have to come to my house to do this. :)
Also imagine this is much quicker w/out having to remove the dryer from the top of the washer...
Now is a good time to clean out the trap.
Great video, saved me some cash, that outer billow spring a son of a gun!!!
You're welcome! Glad we could help.
lol
Thank You
Thank you
If the spring on the outer gasket ring is old and crusty from detergent like mine was, you can go to a hardware store (not a big box!) and get a replacement one for peanuts - < $3. This will allow you to stretch the clamp over the gasket.
Thnks for this upload really helpfull.i have ? It's collecting water to that rubber gasket, why and how can I fix it thnks.
When I installed the door seal, there’s a gap between the seal and the drum after securing it around the drum. What did I do wrong? Your video shows no gap there. Water will definitely leak thru there when filling.
Please advice. Thank you.
The door seal has drain built in but has the UP tab at the drain? Removed oem seal and drain in its seal is down. Is this a typo?
Use golf tees in the bottom holes for the drain to align properly to the washer otherwise you’ll have to take it off later and put it back on if they’ve moved but the golf tees hold it very secure
gold. ty.
I thought you said this would be easy. Have counted the number of screws and clips you have to mess with?
Great video. Very clear and easy to follow. However, you seem to have omitted one step. There is a third lip on the bellow that needs to be fitted to the plastic shroud that surrounds the drum. I performed this step last after everything had been put back together, and it was very easy to do. There is no clamp for this third lip - it's just an easy press fit. But seems a fairly critical step and I can't help wondering if this was inadvertently edited out of the video...
At least that was the case on my machine. Could be that this does not apply on all machines.
Machine is a Whirlpool WFW9151YW00
Glad you found the video helpful! And thank you for the tip about your particular model. A single part can be compatible with hundreds of different appliances. We film the part on a single appliance model to serve as an example of the repair, but there may be slight variations in the process for different models.
Great video. Only thing I'd add is a side note to clean the drain trap, behind the lower panel, while you're in there. I was amazed at what I found in there, from my kids' pockets. When it gets clogged, you'll see an R code on the digital display and it won't drain. It's pretty disgusting to have to repair with a full load of dirty water in there.
Thanks, glad we could help! And that's a good tip too. We're always amazed to hear all the stuff our customers have found in there.
6:03 "looks like they made a few changes to the new one" Is it me or does the new one look flimsier/more floppy? Was it lighter than the old one? Will it last as long do you think?
The new door seals are much thinner and flimsier than the older ones and are prone to developing holes/leaks.
At 10:03 when he's pulling on the spring clamp and using both hands to hold the vise grips there must be someone else out of camera view holding the top of the spring clamp, otherwise it would have slipped off of the door seal. However, I just noticed that this video was made in 2016, so it's possible that the door bellow seal on the 2019 washer that I'm working on (which is more floppy and made from thinner rubber than the older door seals) is made from a type of rubber that has low frictional resistance and therefore doesn't hold the spring clamp in place as you stretch the spring.
What if your unit is stacked? How can you do this with out removing the dryer?
Hey, did you fond out how to do this on a stacked W?D? I have a stacked one too.
You have to take off the dryer first, I had a friend come over to help me do it.
👍
I have some change in mind how do I take it out
Do you know where it's stuck?
I can’t for the life of me get the new bellow on. Any tips?
They're notorius for being difficult to put on. What is the model number of the washer you're working on?
mhwz400tq01
Did you order this part number: www.appliancepartspros.com/whirlpool-bellow-wpw10111435-ap6015081.html
Yes that what I have.
If you're having issues slipping it on, try using a VERY light coating of liquid detergent to help.
While you have the bottom panel off, unscrew and clean your pump filter. I never knew you had to clean it so mine was festering for 9 years. It was full of black mold and sewer gas smell and caked up with fine silt and everything - disgusting!

This guy wasted 15 minutes of me trying to install the seal. It’s 100 times easier starting at bottom center, lining up the drain holes, and then feeding the inner lip of the seal inside between the drum and the plastic drum cover. Feed the seal halfway up to the right, then halfway up to the left, and then keep going until you finish at top center.
Thank you
