What Makes a Whirlpool Front Load Washer Leak?

All washing machines are prone to failure over time.

Like all major appliances, the Whirlpool Duet front-loading washer is prone to failure over time. Some of these failures may result in either a minor or a major leak which typically can be fixed by any handyman or even yourself.

1. Hoses

   • Hoses, commonly made of rubber, are typically the first parts to fail on a washing machine. If your Whirlpool Duet is leaking, it is best to check the hoses first. There are three hoses of major concern: the main drain hose and separate cold and hot water hoses. Ensure all hoses are free of kinks or holes, and ensure all are attached properly to both the washing machine and the main water valve in your home. If you find a problem, replace the hose promptly.
   
   

   Drain Pump

   • Part # 280187. Complete Pump Assembly (comes with hoses!) All washing machines, including the Whirlpool Duet, rely on an inner pump to regulate the water level. If your Whirlpool Duet is leaking, especially when the machine’s main basket is filled with water, the pump could be to blame. Two hoses are connected to the pump, which should be checked for any holes or kinks. These can easily be replaced if faulty, but the whole pump unit may require replacement if the hoses appear to be in working order.
   
   

   Tub

   • Whirlpool Part # W10269756. The plastic outer tub of your Whirlpool Duet washing machine may erode, rust or otherwise develop a hole or crack.  Additionally, the rubber seal located between the machine’s transmission and its plastic outer tub may also be responsible for a leak. To detect a leak of this type, fill your washing machine with water and a small amount of laundry detergent. The leak should be apparent underneath the outer tub.
   
   

   Water Inlet Valve

   • Part # 8181694. The water inlet spout is a small plastic part located within the machine’s main basket. If your Whirlpool Duet washer is leaking, ensure that this piece is fully attached to the machine and free of any cracks or damage. If a problem is found, the spout should be replaced promptly.
     
     Bellow
   •  Whirlpool Part # 8181850.  This Whirlpool Bellow is also known as a Boot Seal and is used in front load washers to fix leaking water. This part is used to keep the clothes inside the tub during the wash cycle. The folds in the bellow allow the tub to move separately from the door during the spin cycle

These parts can be used in the following brands: Whirlpool, Admiral, Estate, Inglis, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Roper, Maytag, Kenmore, Admiral, Crosley, Jenn-Air, Hardwick, Magic Chef, Amana, Caloric & Glenwood.

How to Replace The Flame Sensor in a Whirlpool Gas Dryer

If properly maintained, your gas dryer will last for years. However, even the highest quality dryer will eventually require some repairs to extend its life. If your gas dryer tumbles clothes but is unable to provide hot air, the problem likely stems from a faulty flame sensor. If your dryer’s flame sensor fails, gas doesn’t flow because the ignitor won’t shut off. To fix the problem, you’ll need to change the flame sensor on your gas dryer.

Part # 338906. This genuine OEM Whirlpool Flame Sensor senses heat from the igniter and allows the gas valve to open.

Whirlpool brands include Whirlpool, Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and some Kenmore models.

BUY IT NOW

Things You’ll Need:

•     Small screwdriver
•     New flame sensor

Flame Sensor Diagnosis:

1
Unplug your dryer. Locate and remove the access panel. This panel is typically located on the front of your machine and can be opened without using tools.

2
Set your dryer to its highest setting. Turn on the dryer. Because the electricity is off, the tumbler won’t start, but the gas system will.

3
Observe the gas system through the access panel. Within a few seconds of turning on the dryer, the ignitor will begin to light up. Watch for 60 seconds. If the ignitor does not go out, you have a faulty flame sensor. Turn off your dryer.

Changing the Sensor

4
Remove the wire leads that attach to the flame sensor. These may clip on or be attached with screws. Because the exact location of the flame sensor varies across brands, look at a schematic of your dryer to find the flame sensor. Look for a small box with two metal tabs running parallel to one another.

5
Remove the screw that holds the flame sensor to the interior of the dryer. The bottom of the flame sensor hooks onto the dryer with a small tab. Once the screw is removed, wiggle the sensor to free it from the dryer. Set the old sensor aside.

6
Position the new flame sensor so it is in the same spot as the old one. The hole in the sensor for the holding screw needs to line up with the hole inside your dryer. Use the screwdriver to insert the screw to hold the sensor in place.

7
Reattach the wire leads to the new flame sensor. Replace the access panel. Plug your dryer back into the socket.

Tips & Warnings

You can also test the flame sensor with a multimeter if you have one. Remove the wire leads from the sensor. Place the multimeter’s probes where the wire leads were. A zero reading means the sensor is still working. A reading of 100 means the sensor is faulty.

How To Install a Whirlpool Dryer Igniter

 

Part # 686590 (also part # 279311). This genuine OEM Whirlpool Dryer Igniter is a Flat style igniter and replaces both round and flat igniters. Also known as a Glo-Bar. Fits Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore, Estate, Sears and Roper gas dryers.

Instructions:

• 1
  Unplug the Whirlpool dryer from the wall outlet. Go to the back of the dryer, and turn off the gas supply valve. The gas supply shutoff valve is on the house gas line before the flex gas hose to the dryer.
  
• 2
  Disconnect the gas line to the dryer with a wrench. Turn the connector on the flex hose where it connects to the dryer counterclockwise.
  
• 3
  Go to the front of the dryer, and insert a flathead screwdriver between the toe panel and the front panel. Push the screwdriver handle up to pry the top of the toe panel away from the dryer. Move the toe panel away from the work area.
  
• 4
  Disconnect the wiring harness that connects to the flame sensor on the burner can. The harness will pull apart with your fingers. Remove the wiring harness from the burner connector on the base of the dryer below the burner.
  
• 5
  Remove the two screws that secure the burner assembly bracket to the base of the dryer with a socket wrench. The burner assembly fits inside the burner tube, and the mounting bracket is in front of the burner tube.
  
• 6
  
  Push the burner assembly forward to release the assembly from the bottom tabs. Pull the burner assembly out of the dryer.
  
• 7
  
  Disconnect the wire connector from the burner assembly to the igniter with your fingers. The igniter mounts to the front of the burner assembly. Remove the screw securing the igniter to the burner assembly with a Phillips-head screwdriver.
  
• 8
  
  Grab the igniter by the rear, and pull it off the burner assembly. Place the new igniter into position, and secure the igniter with the retaining screw. Connect the burner assembly wire harness to the igniter harness until they lock into place.
  
• 9
  Set the burner assembly inside the dryer, and position the tabs on the mounting bracket into the tab slots on the base of the dryer. Secure the burner assembly bracket with the retaining screws. Connect the flame sensor wiring harness and the burner connector harness. Push both connectors together until they lock tight.
  
• 10
  Position the toe panel back on the dryer cabinet, and push the toe panel until the retaining springs lock into place. Reconnect the gas line to the back of the dryer, and tighten the connection with the wrench.
  
• 11
  Turn the gas valve on, and apply a solution of 50 percent dish soap and 50 percent water mixed in a small container with a brush around the connection. If bubbles appear around the connection, tighten the connection. Turn off the gas valve before tightening the connection. Repeat until no bubbles appear. Plug the dryer back into the wall outlet.
