How to Locate a Washing Machine Model Number
While the brand of your washing machine may be printed on the unit's exterior, its model number and serial number are typically elsewhere on the machine. The location of your washing machine's model number sticker or plate varies by brand, and whether the machine is top-loading or front-loading. This wikiHow guide will show you exactly where to find the model number of the most popular washing machines, including GE, Bosch, LG, Maytag, and much more.
Things You Should Know
  • On most top-loading and front-loading washing machines, you'll find the model number on a sticker inside the door.
  • On some washing machines, you'll need to look on the side or the back of the unit to find the sticker.
  • If you have a stacked washer/dryer combo, the model and serial number sticker may be inside the dryer door.

GE

Top-loading GE washing machines. If you have a top-loading washer, you'll find the model number tag and serial number in one of the following locations: Under the lid near the rightmost hinge. On the back of the washer's control panel. At the bottom-left corner of the unit. On the back of the washer near the water inlet.

Front-loading GE washing machines. If your GE washer has its door on the front of the unit, check these two locations for the model/serial number tag: Inside the door panel, right on the face of the wash compartment. At the bottom-right side of the unit.

LG

Top-loading LG washing machines. If your LG washing machine's door is on the top of the unit, your model and serial number can be found in one of these places: On the reader panel of the unit near the top. Under the lid—lift the lid and look for a silver sticker near its bottom-right corner. On the left side of the washing machine.

Front-loading LG washing machines. If your LG washer has a door that opens from the front, you'll find the model and serial numbers behind the door on the front panel. Just open the door and locate the model number plate at the top-right corner of the panel facing outward.

Sidekick models. If you have an LG Sidekick, pull the drawer out fully. Once extended, you'll see the sticker on the drawer's top-left, left, or right side.

Bosch

You'll find your Bosch washing machine's model number in one of two places. Whether you have a Bosch washer or washer-dryer combo, inspect these locations for your model number and serial number: On the inner rim of the door—only visible when the door is open. If it's not there, check the back of your Bosch washer. If you have a washer-dryer combo, you may find the model number behind the dryer's filter door.

If your Maytag washer has a door on the top of the unit, your model number can be found in one of three places: On the back of the washing machine's control panel, near the top of the unit.
