3/5/2017 Broken coupler

My Whirlpool clothes washer would not spin when I washed the clothes. I thought it was a bad clutch so I went to the parts store and bought a new clutch and installed it today. I then ran the washer and noticed it also did not agitate. I checked the agitator dog clutch and they were OK. I then had to disassemble the washer again and discovered that I had a broken motor to transmission coupler. I will have to go back to the store tomorrow.
I installed a new coupler today and reassembled the washer for a second time in two days and ran a small load of clothes. Washer works fine, agitates, spins and no leaks! Good for a few more years.

Very commendable-stop spending start mending! I envy people who can help themselves in those matters! And you got a nice documentary capture on top! ~V~

must have already done few years to be the sort of vintage where repairs are possible
