- 1). Unplug the Kenmore washing machine. Turn off the machine's water supply. Wipe down the inside of the washer with a towel.
- 2). Spin the washer around and remove the washer's back panel. First take off the three nuts and the two clamp locking plates. Then remove the white sheet of plastic that was behind the nuts and the locking plates. This sheet of plastic is the coupler. You also need to remove the steel part that surrounds the coupler using a wrench.
- 3). Put the new washer coupling together. Thread one of the plastic 3-prong pieces into one side of the rubber washer. Slip this new construction into the spot that the steel part originally occupied.
- 4). Secure the second three-prong piece to the motor housing. Gently tap the three-prong piece with a hammer to position it properly in its place. The piece's prongs should fit into the rubber washer's three leftover holes.
- 5). Replace the nuts and clamps using the Allen wrench. Put the Kenmore washer's back panel back on.
- 6). Spin the washer around and turn the water back on. Plug the washer in and test it to make sure that it works properly.
