Install capacitor for GE washer
February 22, 2021

Installation was a cinch. I am a great-grandmother with no knowledge of washing machine repairs. On-line instructions provided step by step procedures. The only thing I recommend is that you buy a wire cutter to help remove plastic zip ties.

it was very easy to install.. 5 minutes max. all you need is putty knife to remove front of washer and something to cut 2 zip ties. washer would not spin or wash.. lid switch checked out ok. changed capacitor and oh happy day. 40 bucks after shipping & tax beats buying new washer.
