GLWS1749AS
Frigidaire GLWS1749AS 17 Cycle Repair
Most common issues on this model
- Agitator and transmission operation
- Lid switch
- Water inlet valve
- Drain pump and hose
Built as a 27-inch Gallery top-load washer with a drum near 3.0 cu. ft. and 17 cycles, the GLWS1749AS uses an agitator and a transmission. Several revisions exist, written AS0 through AS5, and Frigidaire no longer makes it. Plenty of Houston families still use it, usually in a laundry room that has had the same washer for years.
Since the agitator and transmission move the clothes, a washer that fills but won’t agitate gets those parts tested first. We look for a worn coupling, a failed transmission or a drive part that has slipped. For spinning problems, the lid switch and drive come next, and for water problems we trace the valve and pump.
Parts differ across AS0 to AS5, so reading the full plate number is a necessary step, and we do it before we place an order. You see a written estimate, and a repair we complete comes with a 30-day warranty.

Error codes this model can show
Can the transmission be repaired?
Sometimes, but often it is replaced as a unit. We test it with the washer empty, tell you whether the repair is sensible for the washer's age and give you the price first.
What is the difference between AS0 and AS5?
They are production revisions of the same washer, and some parts changed along the way. We read your plate to see which one you have and order the matching parts.
My washer agitates but never spins. Where do you look?
The lid switch, the drive and the basket brake are the likely places. We test the switch first because it is the cheapest check, then the drive parts.
