How To: Samsung Rear Tub Seal DC62-00156A

I replaced the rear rub with a new one and it started leaking from the bottom when I put it on a cycle. I’m sure I tightened all the screws around the front and rear tub assembly but it still leaked. Any idea why this happened? Should I take it apart and redo the screws?

very nice video, i did my seal and bearings last weekend , so far everything is working fine, these machines are very easy to work on.

Thanks alot I have a dificulty on balancing LG 22 KG top loading modle T17H9EFHST5.ASS5NAG because the upper cover is curved and no guidance about balancing in the user manual I really disappointed how a big company dismiss this point

What kind of grease does the seal need? The replacement i received didnt have grease inside

Great step-by-step! Replaced my bearing set and seal. Instructions were well organized and correctly sequenced.

Your video was a huge help! Thank you!!

I went to the hardware store to get a new o ring for the bottom of the 35 mm shaft ,a small angled washer fits on top of the o ring then the water seal on top of that then the bearings.

My red is on the left

Thank you soooo much!!!! saved me mucho $$$

I can't believe I am doing second set of washer bearing replacement... I am so mad at myself why I purchased this samsung washer at first place.

Very reasuring to see

Amazing video!! My bearing replacement went with out a hitch!

I changed the two bearings, oil seal and spider. It is much better, but when it rotates, its still unbalanced. Would that be bearing not fit properly? Or spider ? Or tub damaged from previous spins? Does anyone come here anymore?

Thanks for taking the time to create this.

ugh, I guess I am replacing my bearings and tub seal. However after 12 years or so of almost daily service, I am keeping this washer and giving it some much needed love.

It's a bit a of a PITA, but do yourself a favor and replace the bearings with quality Stainless Steel bearings while you are in there.
Rear (Motor Side) - SS6206ZZ - Stainless Steal ID 30mm x OD 62mm x W 16mm Double Shielded.
Front (Seal Side) - SS6207ZZ - Stainless Steal ID 35mm x OD 72mm x W 17mm Double Shielded.
The cheap bearings used from the factory and sold as replacements wear, which hastens seal failure. The seal failure allows water/detergent to rust the bearings. The rust accelerates bearing wear causing the seal to further degrade.

Thank you. First time washer repair, and it took me quite a few hours, but I was able to replace the rear bearing and squeeze some more life out of a washer that was only 2 years old.

Thanks so much for this - very well done. Washer runs like a top again!

Don't waste your time and money fellas. Got it all back together, almost, and the front control panel, (made of plastic) would not line up for anything, cheap plastic clips are supposed to line up with the lower front panel/door section, SUPPOSED TO. Once the frame is tweaked on disassembly it is shot. Also, the spider section on the back was heavily corroded, ANOTHER $150. (Retired Aircraft Mechanic) I kind of know when cheap plastic crap wins and toss it. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME ON SAMSUNG. Went to the Maytag website and an AMERICAN MADE washer is on its way.

Good tutorial video. My 18 year old Hotpoint top loader is on it,s third replacement water pump and 2 sets of clutch liners, And all done from the underneath of the machine. And that,s all I have ever done to it!

I was given a free washer that wasn't working. This video was helpful. It was the bearings that needed to be replaced. When it was out, I also changed out the spider arm because at first it looked solid but then after cleaning a few holes showed up. I dont think I will buy a new appliance anymore, since the last few I bought new ended up neeing me to fix in within 5 years. So why not start with a free one and fix it. Shorly after getting the washer working, I found a matching samsung dryer for free as well. He said it didn't heat but it ran, turned out to be a $25 heating element. These videos you make cover so much it's good thanks.

Fine...

Looks like a brand new washer..

Power tools work great!

Çok güzel anlattınız teşekkür ederim

Only a few minutes huh 🤣

Thank you a thousand times for making this video. It was so concise and walked me through the seal and bearing replacement of my Samsung front load washer. You saved me $1,000.00 this past weekend. Thank You!

video was a huge help repairing a samsung rear bearing at the same time the flange/spider that had broken...note to others as this is why to run a hot water load that is empty about once a month. To save the spider/flange braket from caking up with dirt and detergent causing it to rust/oxidize and fall apart.

As always a very good and detailed presentation. It is on a new unit though. When I took mine apart the spider arm was all full of dirt. Also getting the unit through the box door was difficult as it is heavy. Some nuts very tight so need a long wrench and long extenders for sure.

haw many MFD we put.if change

You do a great job on these video's. Thank you for the time you spend making these.

on samsung wf218anb/xaa 01 washer, how far do you push the oil/water seal into the plastic casing? There is an extra hair-line raise metal edge on the shaft right against the spider. Does the outer-bevelled edge of the oil seal ride on that extra ledge, or does it ride on the straight part even with where the other 2 inner edges of the seal ride on? Just wondering if the extra hairline raised area on the shaft is to catch hair that gets wrapped around shaft, so the hair does not ride or cut into the edge of the seal and get under it.

Hello, I really have seen several videos, but your channel for me is the best, very well explained, camera very well focused, everything step by step. Thanks a lot . you are the best.

Plz sir ji Hindi dubbed

It's not an "easy" job, but it can be done if you go slow, watch the video and go step by step. It takes two people to manage the tub removal. I just finished replacing the seal and both bearings in our Samsung washer. One of the original bearings was bad, the other was better but still not like a new bearing, all due to a bad seal. The bearing/seal kit I ordered from you were exact replacements. Getting the stainless tub out of the bottom tub surround was not easy because of rust that accumulated in the bearings/shaft due to the bad seal. I put the bolt back into the shaft and used a small sledge hammer to finally get the shaft out. Not heavy hits, however. I used 0000 steel wool to clean the shaft before putting it back into the surround tub. Unfortunately, I had to do the job twice because when I put the tub surround back together I failed to put the heating element inside the bracket in the surround tub and the stainless tub rubbed on the heating element, but the job is much easier and faster the second time around. The washer is back in service!

Excellently done video!

Thanks a lot for video.
Sir.. When inserting the shaft after bearing replacement, is it okay if i do not apply grease between the bearing and the shaft?

Very good job sir thank,s

Is there any video showing how to exchange the bearing? Thank you.

Easy?

Very good video. However when I took out the central seal, I took care not to damage the plastic tub in the point of application (holding) of screwdriver, but I scratched the wall of it with it's tip, and almost have to change the tub. You knew how much to insert the screwdriver under the seal not to damage the tub, but please tell the people that the tip of screwdriver may touch the tub and can scratch it under the central seal. It's very easy to scratch!!!

If only the washer was this clean after 8 years of consumer using way too much detergent. 50 minutes start to finish is my average time for this job. Have never done JUST a tub seal.btw.

Did he say easy????

I did everything but for some reason the rotor wont fit back onto the spider arm. Same parts, all i changed were the bearings.

Good job but would it not been better to change seal and bearings at the same time but well done sir.

Might as well buy a new machine. I recently had one of these and given the cost of doing this that's what they opted to do. In this case, we suspected an article of clothing was between in inner and outer drum.

Thank you. Best video for this repair I could find!

Can these bearings be oiled with lithium grease or something?

The bearings in mine are loud. It's basically the same job as this, plus a few extra steps. Thanks for making this video.
