it happened to me twice so far. Not everytime.
after one cycle of washing machine, i found there is an oil leak
from a spinning tub of front loader.
all the clothes are all messed up.
would someone please tell me which part i should check?


Kenmore front load washing machine
model number: 417.41042000


Thanks for looking.


Transmission


would it be easy to replace the transmission?


If you mean is it just sitting there with 6 bolts to take off without
disconnecting all kinds of other stuff, I'd *GUESS* no. I've never
replaced one.

Have you thought about how much you want to spend on this max?- Hide quoted text -

if the problem is due to transmission, then I gotta figure out two
things; easiness of replacement and cost of part.
I am having a difficulty to find the part number of the transmission
and its price.
