SOURCE: Tub seal has rip therefore washer is leaking.

Its pretty comlicated requires dissasembly of the front of the washer. A good tech can do in 1 hour. You may want to pay for it rather than spending all day and possibly damaging something. Let me know if you need further assistance.

SOURCE: Ordering CCU for kenmore elite 45986

Are you attempting to replace the Main Computer Microprocessor, or the User Interface? The Main Computer is located inside the washer behind the wash tub, while the User Interface is behind the control panel. The term CCU sometimes gets used interchangeably and I need to be sure.

It's easier to order parts directly from searspartsdirect.com. Just type in your model number (located around the door opening) and you will find both of the parts I mentioned under the "Control Panel" heading. If you wish to try a local Sears dealer in your area, you can use the part numbers provided by the Sears website.

I hope this helps you. Please post back if you need further assistance.

PS If you wish to compare pricing, you can also try repairclinic.com. Both sites get their parts from the same part source. They both offer comparible pricing with one or the other often having better deals.

boy, you must really love that washer! as far as i've been able to determine, and i've done a lot of research on this, the seal is only available in the assembly. don't know why they'd design it that way, but it's been a source of frustration to a lot of techs

Kenmore front loading waster. Model: 970-c45062-10. Loud whirring noise during spin. I can't seem to find this model listed anywhere to determine the replacement part I require. I even called Sears part...

You have a bearing problem. The bearings can be removed, there are 2 bearings and 1 rubber seal plug. The tub can be removed from the washer and split into 2 pieces (rear portion and front portion), and the bearings removed using a large hammer and a pipe (put the pipe in the hole so it contacts the bearing and hit the pipe with the hammer, then flip over the tub and do the other bearing - there are videos on You tube). The bearing part number for this washer are TSB 6306-2RS-CTS (smaller bearing) and 6307-2RS-CTS (the larger one). These are sealed bearings, and can be ordered off ebay or a bearing store.

Machine making lot of noise during spin cycle

Sounds like your bearings are going bad. You can pull it apart and match them up at a bearing house or online. The manufacturer only sells the outer drum assembly with the bearings. $$$
I have more information if you are interested. Most front loader machines are very similar. There are several internet blogs about bearing replacement.
Make sure you buy the -2rs bearings. The main number can be something like 6307 but make sure you buy 6307-2rs. The -2rs bearings are sealed. The -2z bearings are only shielded. Not as good for water applications.

The drum on my front loading wash machine is very loose

I recently replaced my bearings and seal for about $60. I could have bought the bearing cheaper online but I was in a hurry. If you do a search online there are several blogs about replacing these bearings. Here is a link for a service manual for $ 18 http://www.repairclinic.com/SSPartDetail.aspx?PartID=659075&PPStack=1 You pretty much have to disassemble the washer but it is not really that difficult depending on your mechanical experience. The manual should lay it all out for you. There are 2 notes on these frigidare washers: Sometimes the spider arms on the inner drum break and you will have to buy the complete inner drum assembly. I have heard they are warranted for 25 years, but they most likely will not warranty them if the owner does the work. Also, Frigidare does not list the bearings seperately, but you can buy the bearings from a bearing supply house, online or in your town. The bearing numbers are on the side of the old bearings when you remove them.
NOTE- The bearings that came out of mine were 6306-2Z and 6307-2Z (shielded) I replaced mine with 6306-2RS and 6307-2RS (sealed). The significance is that the shielded bearings offer minimal protection from water where the sealed bearings are built to seal out water/contaminants if you new seal ever fails. The seal I used was a CR15939 rubber coated seal.
If you need any other information, let me know
Hope this helps

Frigidaire front loading washer makes a clinking noise

It sounds like your tub bearings are starting to go bad. Mine sounded like airplane taking off. Once the seal goes bad, water tends to migrate into the bearing cavity and flush the grease out of the bearings and then they wear quickly.
You have to completely remove the tub assembly to take it apart. Some say get a new washer, but I only paid $60 for the 2 bearings and a seal from a bearing house. They are even cheaper online.
You may as well try and fix it, worst case the junk yard doesn't care if it's in pieces when you bring it to them. I have no idea what an appliance repairman would charge to fix it.
If I remember right the seal is a 80mmx40mmx10mm metric seal. I found a rubber coated one from SKF I believe. The bearings should be 6306-2rs and 6307-2rs, but I would not buy anything till you have it apart. The bearings knock out easily.
INFO-Mine had -2z bearings installed which are only shielded bearings. The -2rs bearings hold up much better to water exposure in case the new seal leaks in the future.

If you want the exact seal part number, I can get it off my paperwork, Just write back.
I saw somewhere on an appliance blog that had step by step pictures of the procedure.

Frigidaire Washing Machine Model # GLTF1670AS0 Makes very loud

If you want to take the time, I just replaced my drum bearings and seal for $62.00. No really any special tools needed. My model showed the bearings were not sold seperately and you had to buy the complete tub half, but when you take it apart, you can knock out the bearings and buy them online or at a bearing house. I have a seal part number also.
If I remember right the bearing part numbers are 6306-2RS and 6307-2RS (1 each) and the seal is a 40mmX80mmX10mm thick. Make sure you get the -2RS bearings because they are sealed. The ones that came out of mine are shielded bearings ( -Z ) and they will not resist moisture if the seal shaft seal fails.
Most AutoZones have seal and bearing drivers you can "borrow". They really help during installation so you don't deform the seal or damage the new bearings.

Any good bearing house should be able to macth on up or if you post back I can give you the exact number. I think most brands of front washer use the same bearings, but you may want to take yours apart before you buy.
Worst case the junk yard doesn't care if it comes in pieces or as one piece. Give it a try.

Not sure you will want to get this involved, but its not really too bad of a job.

Have to change bearing on front load washer

This link should get you on your way. http://www.applianceblog.com/washers/RearBearingV6.pdf
In addition I should mention that the original bearings are a shielded bearing (Z). Follow the link and use 6306-2RS and 6307-2RS bearings which are sealed. I was able to match up SKF 562737 seal which is now a CR 15939 seal I believe. It is completely rubber coated. Between the sealed bearings and new seal you should be good to go.

Brown streaks on clothes

Are the streaks on smaller pieces of clothing (socks, etc.)? If so, the clothing item might be getting caught inside the rubber gasket around the door, and getting the streak from there. Try cleaning inside the fold of the rubber gasket very well, and often and see if it keeps happening.

Loud Noise - Spin Cycle

It sounds like the bearings are going bad. Try spinning the drum with your hand while it is empty. It should spin nice and smooth. If the rotation feels a little rough and noisy, you might have a problem. You can double check by taking the drive belt off and try shaking the pulley. If there is "play" when shaking the pulley, the bearings are most likely toast. The inner stainless drum rides on two bearings which sit in the rear of the outer plastic drum. The whole plastic drum and bearings come as one piece and go for $150. It would cost about the price of a new maching to have someone come out and repair it for you. It sounds like kenmore has had a bearing problem which is pretty rediculous considering how much these things cost. Sears said, "those tend to go in a few years", which is criminal especially since the warrenty is usually conveniently exopired by the time this problem happens. If you are handy, have a spare day, and can remember how to put a washing machine back together, go for it. I did it and it was not a fun time. There is a lot of sharp metal edges in the machine so wear gloves. good luck
