Washing machine rumbles when spinning

Bought this washing machine new in July 2002 - this is the first problem we have had with it - during spin cycles it is extremely loud (rumble or rubbing sound)

Anonymous May 11, 2010

I would remove the back to see if anything, such as shocks, are loose. There should be 4 of them, 1 in each "corner". Shocks may have just come loose and may only need to be tightened or bolts replaced. More info, pls let me know. Charlie

It needs to be leveled. most units are self leveling meaning they sit evenly. if yours in on uneven ground make sure you get it onto a flatter spot. should help.

Machine makes awful noise during any movement, spins very slowly, not enough to spin out. Making an awful noise, like stripped gears and won't drain

There are three reasons for such awful noise during spinning. Either the drum or the bearing turning the drum. Check for drum bearing failure if your washing machine is noisy on the spin cycle. Drum bearing failure is common when the bearing seals start allowing water to enter. You can take the belt off and spin the drum by hand, and if the drum rumbles, replace the bearings.

Very loud rumbling noise during spinning

Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.This will solve your problem.

Washer won't agitate or spin out.

Well it is ethier Belt, Cluch ,motor ,Or transmission. But it does sound like your transmission . The loud clunk is the brake in the gear case ( Trans.). It might have broken off.
