First, see the Sears parts site for your washer:

http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/getModel!retrieve.pd?modelNumber=110.27062602&pathTaken=partSearch

Assuming that this is the Oasis type washer, see the Whirlpool Service Manual for their Cabrio washer which is basically the same as the Oasis.

Kenmore washer 110.26432500 leaking in front bottom. I think it is part 8528158 or 3363394. Is this common? Difficulty of the fix?

This assumes that you have a basic Kenmore / Whirlpool top load, direct drive, neutral drain (it doesn't spin until the pump removes most of the water) machine.

First, see the Sears parts site for your washer:

http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-model/Kenmore-Parts/Washer-Parts/Model-11026432500/0582/0153200?pathTaken=

and you'll see a list of major sub-components with diagrams and parts.

See the section for the basket and tub assembly

It's not an un-common problem and relatively easy to fix.


I'd pull the cabinet in order to get to the hoses going to and from the pump first.

See the following:

http://www.american-appliance.com/catalog/newsdesk_info.php?newsPath=16&newsdesk_id=131

If the hoses are fine, check the shaft from the motor to the pump and check inside the pump to make sure the inlet and outlet aren't blocked.

I'd also check the gaskets at the bottom of the tub.

If you're reasonably mechanically inclined, these are easy fixes.

If you have to get to the gaskets at the bottom of the tub, see the following for how to remove the agitators, pump, motor, transmission, spin tube and basket.

(It sounds a bit complicated but it's not really that difficult.)

http://www.american-appliance.com/catalog/newsdesk_info.php?newsPath=16&newsdesk_id=137

You don't have to buy a special spanner wrench to remove the spanner nut. I've used a short 10" pipe wrench hooked over one of the tabs on the spanner nut, tap the handle with a hammer and it should loosen.

Also, don't directly hit the drive block with a hammer. Use a short piece of wood under the drive block and tap up on the wood.

As an aside, see the following Whirlpool Service Manual for top load direct drive washers.


https://secured.whirlpool.com/Service/SrvTechAdm.nsf/2cd44500d572193285256a45004fd9d6/f7e2147fa98b28cf85257122007475cb/$FILE/L-55.pdf

Depending on the problem (hoses or gasket) it's certainly less expensive than calling in a repair person.
tip

Whirlpool / Kenmore Washer - Drive Block

Whirlpool / Kenmore Top Load, Direct Drive Washers.

A number of the diagnostics and repair procedures for these washers require you to remove the agitator(s).

In order to get the agitators out, you need to remove the "Spanner Nut" and "Drive Block".

Many instructions call for a special spanner wrench to remove the nut.

However,

You don't need a special spanner wrench. (About $20 retail)

I've used a short 10" pipe wrench (About $9 also good for cracking walnuts) hooked around one of the tabs on the spanner nut and tapped the handle with a hammer to loosen it.

Also, don't directly hit the drive block with a hammer (it's soft metal). Put a short piece of wood under the drive block and tap it up with a hammer.

Hello! my tub seems to be very loose and makes loud noise when spin cycle turns on....what might that be?

you will need to remove your agitator. There should be a bolt on the top center of the agitator. you will need to remove the top of agitator or the cap to get to this bolt. once you loosen this bolt the hole agitator shold pull straight up.

Now you should see the long shaft in the center. Follow that shaft from the top down to the area where the shaft disappers and ther is a big round nut with 4 notches spaced evenly. This is call the spanner nut and you should use a spanner rench to tighten it with a small sleg or hammer ( a couple of good wacks should do. ) I know you probably do not have this tool, but at least you can verify that this is your problem. your spanner nut may be loose. this nut holds your inner tub down to the block. here is the break down

You don't need a special spanner wrench to remove the spanner nut. I've found that a 10: pipe wrench hooked over one of the tabs on the spanner nut and using a hammer to tap the handle works well.

Don't use a hammer directly on the drive block. Use a short piece of wood under the drive block and tap it with a hammer to remove the block.

When replacing the block make sure to align the tabs on the drive tube with the slots in the drive block before tightening the spanner nut.

How to remove the chuck

You will need 2 spanners ( the size vary's from differant models) and A screwdriver (generally phillips/star). Remove the screw that is inside the mouth of the chuck (it screws throough the back of the chuck and into the chuck shaft). Then get your 2 spanners - One goes on to the chuck and the other goes onto the shaft that the chuck attaches to. Turn the chuck anti Clockwise. This may be vary hard to do as somtime they rust and cease and you may need to brace the second spanner in a bench/table vise and use a hammer to gently tap away at the 1st spanner (the one holding the chuck). I find that spraying a litlle penatrating oil on the screw and the shaft an hour before attemting helps about 80% of the time.

hope this helps
