Cannot thank you enough for this video. Gave me the confidence to open up the washing machine. My drum was not rotating, totally stuck and I was pretty sure something was stuck in it. Called Tech who charged 170$ and told me that there was some problem with shaft and asked me to replace it, my unit is only 3-4 years old. On opening the drum, I found broken kids scissor which was getting stuck. Not sure how it ended up there. Few tips/suggestions, it is not this quick and takes lot of time, many hours, so be ready for it. You can take pics of every part you are opening so that you can put it together back again by looking at the pictures in reverse. The drum is heavy so you may need help. Also, I felt it would have been easier for me to put the bolts which tie the drum to hydraulic suspension on the back side if I had put the weights first on the front side. Without it the drum becomes lopsided towards the back and a major pain to put the bolt in. Make sure you fix back everything based upon pics, I had missed putting the screws for the sensor on top of the drum and due it the machine would not go into rinse cycle. Took me 2 hrs to figure that one out. Nothing beats the thrill of getting it done and saving tons of money, even if you do not fix it you have practiced enough for future issues ;). Hope this helps someone in future.
Thanks for the video, it really helped. I was working on a Samsung built Kenmore which had some minor variation. EBay was were I found the parts ($80 for a bearing and seal kit). I would add that wearing gloves is critical as the inside of this machine is razor sharp. Marking all fasteners with their origin and taking pictures throughout the disassembly makes the reassembly go more smoothly.
I watched your video twice and then dove in. Took all day but my wife thinks I’m a superman and my buddy’s think I’m a god. Thanks SO much for posting this video. If you are ever up here in Canada and near Hamilton, Ontario I owe you some beer. And up here in Canada we put alcohol in ours. Cheers! Derek
@@robertc.6441 I was going to get after market but tons of reviews on Amazon say get original otherwise they go bad in months. So I got mine thru Samsung directly (Realizable Parts Store) Wish me luck. Did you get yours fixed Robert?
@@radiohead2206 Yes, I finally got it fixed but I had to order 2 sets of bearings to get the right ones and then I had to have one of the old ones cut off that was all the way down on that shaft! I also accidentally broke one of them plastic couplings under the top that joined 3 hoses together, had to hunt around to find that piece also.
Excellent video! I needed to replace the front gasket on my Samsung and I felt like a genius! Little did I know I had much to learn 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️. My bearing has gone out as well. Time for an LG direct drive washer!
My washer stopped spinning today. Motor works just fine, but the barrel doesn't move. While I'm fairly certain it's not the bearing that's the issue, this video is still going to be really helpful to me tomorrow when I start ti disassemble it to find the actual problem. Thanks!!!
Well done JB,I normally get really bored watching these types of videos, but I watched the whole thing no fforwards. I can't seem to get the drive belt to stay on my machine. So hats off to your patience and skills👌 👏 🙌
Thanks man! I had a heck of a time pulling my inner bearing; but, I rigged up a puller and put some pressure in the right direction so that I could knock it out in a couple blows with my small sledge. I’ll have my replacement parts in a few days; looking forward to getting this machine back up and running!
God bless your bro… you have some patience… I was thinking about changing mine, but just looking at this makes me nauseous… But good for you… 50 bucks.. well worth it if you’re that skilled
Hi, thank you for the video. I have a Samsung front load washer WF361BVBEWR/A2. 01. I changed the rubber seal a few weeks ago and since the the machine vibrates and moves to the left only when the spin cycle gets to the high speed, then its fine. It only moves probably 2 times per the wash cycle. Otherwise is doesnt move or shake the rest of the cycle. Any thoughts? I changed all 4 shock absorbors yesterday and still moves. Do you think it could be the bearing. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thank you
I know it's been 2 years since you made this video, however could you please tell me exactly where you bought the replacement bearings from???? Having a very hard time locating the right ones, there are alot of different ones evidently. Thanks!
any idea i have replaced eprom board and machine powers on but nothing on display just flashing ? do i need to reset it or what it does not react to all i hear powering on sound and thats it after that just all light flashing but not reacting to anything else except power on and of
I know this video has been out for a while. I hope someone can help us. We have this same washer and having a hard time finding the spider arm for this unit. If someone could point us in the right direction on finding the correct parts number or compatible number, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Great vid. What crap they now make. If they would keep speed slower on spin and let it run longer. Bearing and seals would last. Check old spin rates and the new sonic spin rates.
Yes RS meas it has rubber seals, which will be just fine. RS sealed bearings are rated for much higher rpms than this washing machine will ever reach. I just replaced mine, and used quality FAG bearings instead of the cheap OEM Chinese ones from SHEN ! FAG bearings are: 6207-C-2HRS 6206-2RSR Seal is a bit hard to find locally, the part no. is: DC62-00156A
I got the same problem,when the spin cycle at 6 minute it make a big big noise and seems the whole machine moving.And i just got my new washer installed.Anyway thanks to post this video ,it gives me confidence to replace the bearing on my own.By any chance what year is your washer?
I bought for $999 in 1999 a Maytag Neptune, the water pump went bad after 6 years, the ball bearings went bad after 10 years and the motor after 14 years. My $1,599 Samsung machine, (WF50K7500AV/A2), the ball bearings went bad after 3 years and even the water pump still good, normally that's the first thing that goes bad on any washer machine. With only 1 year warranty, customer service does not care. I will never buy Samsung again, those are just pretty garbage, they should keep making just cellphones. SAMSUNG NOT RECOMENDED. GE or Maytag again will be my next choice.
Lmao! Good luck with your overpriced Whirlpoop "Maytag".... have you seen what counts as an "appliance" from Whirlpool/Maytag lately? You thought the Samsung was bad, Maytag has an average life expectancy of a little over 2 years according to consumer reports, and that's despite them using the loudest buzz-box single speed motors that have been cheapened *so much* that tey don't even use start capacitors anymore, just different sized windings that fail due to heat... which speaking of heat, because Whirlpoop/Maytag can't be bothered to improve anything, you'll be stuck spending $3-4k more in electricity over the ideal lifespan of a washer just because of the abysmal 600rpm spin speed. An LG front load unit will last at least 14 years between major service on average and the 1,300rpm spin and modern VFD control won't make you think you're living in the 1930s.
The Maytag was a purchased in 1999, It last pretty good. The Samsung was after the Maytag and it was pure garbage. Now I got a LG and so far its working OK. @@dregenius
Don't look at ebay, you should get them at much better price at any bearing dealer, a gentleman who posted this video did a very wonderfull thing : He gave the bearing references wich is very very very helpful, just with these references look around online or stores and you will find them....just make sure to buy a SEALED ones (very important !!) and don't forget the seal as well.
!!!IMPORTANT!!!! I have this almost exact model WF50k7500AV/A2, I couldn't figure out why it was grinding after I bought the back half of the plastic tub with the bearing's installed already and a new metal tub with the shaft, the whole thing was brand new from Samsung parts about 800$. if you get the back plastic part of the tub with bearing installed even though it's O.E.M, they must have redid it because my chrome spacer plate under the Stator rubbed bad, it made little grooves on the inside of the Stator cover Knew it had to of been the Spacer plate. I took out the adapter plate and it's like new..... thought it was the new bearing's at first figured it out, it was a pain so ya im pretty sure the tub with the bearings was redesigned to not need the adapter plate. anyways few days of headache's but figured it out just a heads up.... your video was excellent the only difference on your model compared to mine was my dispencer bolted in from the top not the front and I had 2 screws in the bottom underneath that held the front face on... thanks for the awesome video.
Yes indeed he did miss a few things but still nice video. Save my washing machine. He didn’t show that you need to tilt the washing machine back and remove two screws underneath it to remove the front door panel. He also didn’t show how he removed the control panel.
You’re not supposed To knock those bearings in the tub with a hammer metal to metal you could damage the bearings not very smart you should use a piece of wood to knock them in
Excellent video, right to the point and no unnecessary commentary. You saved me a ton of money, thank you!
Great video! Thank you for also recording how to put it back together after replacing the parts. Very helpful

Great Video! I'll be doing this next weekend! thanks for sharing.
A superb, no bullshit video!
Truly fantastic video. It was extremely helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise. 🙏👍
Wow this looks like a fun repair. I have the same machine and I'm having a rubber burning smell.
That rubber burning smell is coming from the wobble in your tub rubbing against the door seal. Your tub bearing and or spider arm is out.
Repaired mine today, $40 on Amazon, about 3 hours and 2 cuts but got 'er done.
How do you break the seal on the bolt in the back? I'm getting no where with it
Man this video awesome no bla bla it was like watching a soldier put his gun together nice work
at 9:26, using the old bearing to knock the new one into place is a nice trick.
Hi, thank you for the video. I have a Samsung front load washer

Did you retain the bearing to the shaft this time since the shaft is worn out. that why it doesn’t spin and the bearing actually works ?
Hey where did you buy the parts from?
Would this work on this model as well wf45r6300av
Buena reparación. El problema El eje queda tocado .desgaste por retén.
Go watch another video on this same washer. You’ll be sorry if you stick with this one. All kinds of important steps left out!!!
th-cam.com/video/uxfbWT4Bzjw/w-d-xo.html
Thx for this very video. What's that ring or washer you put on before putting the seal in at 9:43
Mine had two. lol
Where can I find the assy shaft(spider arm) and what's the part & for after market, since Samsung discontinued the part
Bravo. Excellent job. Thanks for the video.
I used a bearing press tool.
How cane I open the door handle? No screw found
He is strong, fast. The woman's dream.

awesome, seen how i can do the shocks !
Thanks for your information 👍 very helpful
When You Open The Back Panel I see There is no Sound Dampers ?
I just fixed mine to it was all day but works like new now the oil ring is dc62-00156a
can u tell me what are those connections on the door gasket? and what is that sensor for on the gasket?
Great vid. What crap they now make. If they would keep speed slower on spin and let it run longer. Bearing and seals would last. Check old spin rates and the new sonic spin rates.
Good job bro!
That’s a beautiful machine
Is this a vrt? Do they have belts . Mines not spinning because a big blanket was put in and now it won't spin . Any one gone threw this? Please help
When I search for bearing 6307-2RZ nothing available only 6307-2RS will that bearing fit ?
The S bearing is for lower rpm it will fit but may fail prematurely.
Yes
RS meas it has rubber seals, which will be just fine.
RS sealed bearings are rated for much higher rpms than this washing machine will ever reach.
I just replaced mine, and used quality FAG bearings instead of the cheap OEM Chinese ones from SHEN !
FAG bearings are:
6207-C-2HRS
6206-2RSR
Seal is a bit hard to find locally, the part no. is: DC62-00156A
Outstanding video
Thank you! Very helpful
Appreciate the video. Thank you!
thanks for the video i will never buy a samsung now, how old is this model and how long have u had the machine ?

but you forget the most important, grease the seal bearing

i think you forget 5:05 washer
Nice catch!.
Why do repair guy want to replace the drum instead of just doing a bearing like this surgeon
OK any heads up looked like tup needs to b removed to get at bearings ..?
18MINS??!!! WHAT WILL I DO UNTIL THEN???!!
I own the Samsung WF42H5600AW. It seems I now get to do this onerous chore. Bleh.
Wow never use a hammer on the bearing and are we just going to ignore the slit on the bottom of the seal 😉
Its ok to use a hammer if you only beat on the outer race.

You missed a few things that I'm finding the hard way now.

Yes indeed he did miss a few things but still nice video. Save my washing machine. He didn’t show that you need to tilt the washing machine back and remove two screws underneath it to remove the front door panel. He also didn’t show how he removed the control panel.

You’re not supposed To knock those bearings in the tub with a hammer metal to metal you could damage the bearings not very smart you should use a piece of wood to knock them in
