Default Whirlpool Clutch Replacement
Model Number: LSR8433KQ0   Brand: Whirlpool   Age: 1 - 5 years   

I have a washing machine that spin cycles slowly, if at all, but if the safety is disabled and the drum hand pushed it will generally then spin up - sometimes at a slow speed and sometimes at high speed. This appears to be a clutch issue, so my questions is twofold.:
1. Is it likely that the whole clutch assembly needs replacing, or can I get away with the clutch band and lining kit (AP3094538) only?
2. If the whole assembly is needed, is this an 'end-user' task, or do I need a technician (tough in Bermuda)? Similarly, can I do the AP3094538 replacement myself?

Thanks
