Bearings faulty or another fault this model suffers from is the concrete balance weight retaining bolts shake loose, if it is the bolts tighten up as soo as possible. Regards Advisor

hi,
this is a generic problem with top-loading washing machines. when the distribution of load is not uniform, it gives sound when spinning. if it produces noise even after equal distribution of clothes, the problem lies in the suspension. this is not a major fault, and can be put up with, rather than spending dollars on fixing it. this will in no way cause any special wear and tear for the machine.
cheers

Machine wot final spin and final spin light flashes

Your problem could be attributed to the electronic control board. I assume that the washer spins up until that point of the cycle.

It is moving when spinning

Could be caused by unbalanced load, or broken suspension spring, worn or broken shock absorber, and it is very important that the washer is perfectly level.
Hope this helps.

Machine noiser than it use to be when tub spins

From the front of the washer, spin drum by hand, and if it feels rough or is noisy, then the main drum bearings are probably worn.
Another possibility is the motor bearings noisy, or a worn armature.
If the noise is gradually getting worse, then I think it is safe to say it is the main bearings.

Hi,my hotpoint wf541 washing machine has become noisy on its spin cycle,any ideas as to what is wrong with it,or can you recomend a repairer for me in Lincoln,uk?

Try spinning the drum by hand ,if it feels or sounds noisy, then the main bearings have gone, if no obvious niose, then it could be m/c not level, overloading,-loose balance weight)(s)-suspension spring broken or unhooked--there are other causes, but these are the usual things to look for.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.
