I spent $84 on a new transmission and watched this video to replace it. This video made it simple!!! I did not remove my top because it wasn't necessary. It took me about 1.5 hours since my 4 year old girl had to help. She learned a lot and so did I. Thank you!!!

Have a great day!
Way to go, than you for the encouragement.
Where did you buy the part?
@@flipnlu I bought it from Amazon from the GE store.
“Unthread the 33mm nut, this will be difficult” was so accurate. Boy it fought me. Thanks for the video!
My husband and I were able to replace the transmission successfully with this video. We bought an $88 part and saved us over $400 in buying a new washer. Please note there is a new washer that comes with the new transmission that isn't shown in this video. Interesting note - you don't have to take off the top part of the washer as shown at the end of the video. Not sure why it is there as he doesn't show that in the beginning.
Hi could you tell me where you purchased the part?
@@keylolo3484 I can’t find the statement but all I did was Google the model number of the washer and transmission part.
@@lanasmith1085 okay thank you so much.
hi lanasmith1085, one question. I believe my model in the bottom is exactly like this one but the agitator is one piece not like the one shown in the video that you intruduce a screw driver to take it apart(so the agitator was 2 parts), he took out the longer part so now he got the screw at hand. was your agitatot like in the video or it was one piece?
@@AlexS-us7ps Mine is one piece. We pop off the top and use a super long extension with nut to unscrew.
A quick note: On my washer, the 33mm socket must be deep well. I needed 2 1/2 to 3 inches of depth to clear the center shaft. Also, I could not find a deep well 33mm, so I used a 1 5/16". It was a little loose against the nut but it did the job. (Remember it's a left handed thread - turn clockwise to loosen.) I also found using an impact wrench makes removal much easier.
Do you have a link, by chance? I have not been able to find one with the required depth to clear the shaft.
I'm grateful for this video, but I got a couple of tips that I learned the hard way.
The edges of the transmission are sharp. Be careful.
Clean any lubrication that got on the belt and pulleys.
Good to lubricate moving parts like the plastic clutch teeth and shaft spline with lube safe for plastic. Silicone based?
I had a hard time inserting the transmission into the bottom of the tub. I probably should have lubed the rubber part of the shaft a tiny bit. My transmission popped in suddenly while tightening the bolts. Hopefully, that rubber part wasn't damaged in the process.
Thank you for the tips.
Great instructional video! My washer is repaired better than from the factory. During the initial disassembly I discovered that the Bellville (convex) washer was upside-down. Green dot is supposed to be up. From the factory the green dot was down on my machine. So, the factory assembly defect may have actually caused the gear case to fail prematurely
Thanks for sharing
This is the vid! 👏👏
Had a grinding washer for awhile, eventually it kept leaving clothes wet and not spinning right.
Got the transmission, clutch, shifter, and belt on the web and took about 1.5 hours start to finish!
Got to buy a 33mm socket too 😂
Amazing instructional video!

Thank you for this guide! While my Hotpoint washer uses a slightly different agitator design (single unit needing multiple extensions to remove) the rest of the video was spot on! I can’t believe my 2 year old washer needed a transmission already, but this guide saved the day. Much happier to spend a couple hundred dollars on the part needed than 3x as much for a whole new washer.
BEST VIDEO ON THE INTERNET!

Thank you for this video. It was very helpful! However, I absolutely could not get the agitator off using the screwdriver in the hole method as shown in this video. I was using enough force to cause damage with no luck. I was very successful using a rubber strap wrench at the base below the part where the hole is.

Had a repairman suggest that I Add Fill more water to the wash cycle. This will put less stress on transmission. It may decrease the noise level. If not jelp then replace the transmission.
Great video

Very good video, I am interested in buying a washing machine, what are those like?
I have a bearing that is grinding during the spin cycle its most noticeable. Are the bearings on this style of washer located in the transmission?
I have a 19 month old GE Adora HE washer. It agitates and spins dry but the noise level in agitation has increased significantly. Is it the mode shifter or the transmission that is increasing the noise levels in agitation?
I would try replacing the clutch and mode shifter first. Then if that doesn’t work do the transmission. That’s what I’m going to do.
I got a 33mm deep socket and it still won’t fit. Is there such a thing as an extra deep socket? The video tools needed section just said a socket and I thought a deep socket would be enough.
Excelent work

Any tips on getting the 33 mm bolt off- impact socket is stripping it due to not being deep enough. Can I put some PB blaster on it ?
So replacing the trans seems pretty straight forward, but what about plugging that hole in the agitator? Anybody have a answer for that?
How deep is that 33" socket?
Great video. I replaced my agitator and agitator base and it still wont agitate. It does spin. Transmission?
Check out this weeks blog article to help you troubleshoot the motor or stator: diy.repairclinic.com/washer-not-spinning-or-agitating-test-the-motor-or-stator/
I'm struggling with getting the agitator off. My washer looks just like this one but with a different model number. Gtw460asj5ww. Any suggestions?
If you already have the hole located, I would place a smaller-ish flat/standard/blade or Phillips like the video described screwdriver into the hole, slightly pushing it in while rotating lower agitator section until it allows you to go further in and is difficult to go past, there is a small spot that is meant to be pierced with the tip of the driver and hold it together to make it pop out of the "locking tabs" on the bottom portion. After you pierce it push the screwdriver as far in as you can. I found it easiest to use Enertia to help out with spinning it. I would rotate the tub counterclockwise a bit and then, holding only the agitator top, twist with both hand clockwise and it will pop.
Nice video
Where we can find the tub seal of this transmission ?
You can find all the parts for your specific washer by entering in your model number at RepairClinic.com.
When i put mine back it the tub is in a bind and wont spin. Any advice?
Why take the pump off? Seems like an unnecessary step.
To allow the transmission to come out far enough to allow you to remove the retainer from the water pump harness.
Great video. I have this exact washer. I have a small bottom leak coming through belt cover. For this model, is the compromised tub seal part of the transmission? (I.e. i need to replace whole transmission for this leak?).
Yes. It's a sealed unit. Bearing and seal are part of tranny case.
Repair clinic: I've got a GE GTW485BMKWS. I'm trying to replace the transmission as well. I don't see the hole and the bump in the agitator as shown in the video. How do I remove the agitator since it's different to the one shown? I'd appreciate your help. Thanks

if no bolts on top of shaft pull hard and should release
It IS difficult to see and I actually had to use my cell phones camera to find it, but you also have to understand too, that once you remove the agitator, you will have to find a way to seal it as once you puncture through the inner portion/shell, it will allow water to come into that area and rust out or go past the seal for the bolt holding onto the lower agitator and cause it to fail much quicker.
@@ThomasBeringerMichael So how do you seal it? What a bad design to make it like that.
@@jeffwestbrook6570 Duct tape has been a perfect method to close it back up, and it can/should be done previous to attempting the reinstall. Clean it good up in there and I found the agitator to be an incredible collector of mold like grime. I took mine apart completely and epoxied it back together after realizing there was a leak in it...
Sorry if this has already been covered but is a grinding noise during the agitating cycle usually the transmission being bad ?
Not its not could be ur shifter
Would I need to do this if my ge won't agitate during washing and there is oil under my washer? Please help.
More than likely, the agitator has a planetary style transmission. the actual agitator is moved when the clutch below pulls the clutch up and only moves that splined shaft. The problem normally would be a clutch or the clutch motor that spins partially to make it "push" the fork. But since you have "oil" on the floor, that means the seal is gone up top and it has flooded the case of the transmission and has wiped it out. I have pictures to show of what it looks like but suffice to say, if it is leaking a seal is worn and if your agitator ain't spinning, the tranny is more than likely shot.
What's the point in taking the motor pulley off? I see no point in this.
What was the point in taking the top of the washer off? I see no point in this.
I just did mine today no need for it. Not sure why that part is in the video?
@popcornchicken2461 I've been doing appliance repair for 32 years. I see a lot of people doing things that are so unnecessary. The agitator should come right up through the top opening.

You don’t need a clutch to pull off the transmission pulley I can pull that off with my bare hands and you do not have to remove the drain pump
I cut the nut off using a dremel tool. A lot easier.
🤣
Damn 😅
You do a lot of unnecessary work that in a real world as a tech i would loose half my day doing 1 single transmission. The console doesn't even have to move just open the lid and do it from theree 😂 but you do you
These transmissions are some of the worst products in the appliance industry. They will start leaking oil within the first year of use, sometimes even within the first 6 months.
