Hi, my name is Chas, I am hoping that I will be able to help you with your problem today..

Are you having the OL error come up?

Customer replied 217 days and 23 hours ago.

Yes. and I am 99% sure it is because the basket is corroded to the spindle. I am needing to get the basket off. I just got a pair of vice grips and was able to turn the spindle independently. I think it is just going to take some elbow grease and patience... Am I able to cancel my question? I want to work on it a little longer first...

Wynot take the screws out where they attach to the tub for the spline setup, this would give you more room to work.
