Clothes got twisted in the rubber gasket now it wont spin

Did the rubber tare when it got twisted? If not did you remove the rubber below and reinstall it. If not then it may of slipped and could be causing a bind in the drum.

door gasket or door boot or the door bellows, it can be referred to by any of these 3 names

The following link explains the steps required to install a door bellow on a front loader:

Inspect the bellow and the front and rear clamps to ensure they are not damaged. If the bellow has any rips or tears, it must be replaced or it will leak.

If you have any questions, please let me know. I hope this helps you.

NOTE: Overloading the washer can contribute to items getting caught in the bellow and causing premature wear. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for proper loading.

Ive replaced multiple bellows due to this reason...check the inner tub for any extra play first, but bellow should fix problem(bellow is a pain to put on, be prepared to spend an hour or two, or may want to call a service company)bellow part#134365200

yep, I have that problem too. My son's winter coat got wripped to shreds.

you have a broken coupler...this is a plastic and rubber part that connects the motor to the transmission.  A $20 part

what did you take off? to remove the pump there are 2 clips. then after removing this there are 2 more clips forget about the screws if you had them. If you had screws one did not fall into the motor did it? Anyway if you had 1/4 inch screws you can toss them. if you removed the clips from the motor and took the motor down did you align the coupler correctly? there is a 3 pronged plastic peice on the motor also there is a 3 pronged plastic peice on the transmission. between the two is a rubber grommit. make sure everything is ligned up. check these things first and let me know.

when you spin it by hand dose it feel free or restricted? if rstricted you may have a peice of clothing between the two tubs.if free you can have a worn clutch.but it would agaitate fine.if wont agaitate or spin it may be your drive coupler.and if the drive coupler failed your washer will still drain.if you need more help you can email me thru FixYa God bless ,tom

We purchace a washer and dryer in Dec 08 Kenmore HE energy star. They started destroying cloth about 2 months after purchace.
under our warranty and many many calls they sent a new set. 2 months later same problem. HELP

Usually black oily stains are a symptom of a rear main drum bearing starting to go bad. The seal goes bad first and the packing grease will start to weep out as water gets into the bearings. Is the washer starting to get loud during any spin cycle? If so, I think your bearing is starting to go. It's not a cheap fix, either. The whole back shell of the outer wash tub has to be replaced because the bearings are molded into the plastic. I hope this is helpful in some way.
