Kenmore 90 series noise after spin

I have a Kenmore 90 series washer model 20902990 which works fine except for after the spin cycle it makes a loud thumping noise. It looks like the drum keeps spinning and slows down gradually after the spin cycle. I can move the drum with no cloths inside and it still makes the thumping sound. Any suggestiions to this direct drive Kenmore?

I have Kenmore 90 series Model 110 20902 990. I was washing sheets and the agitator got jammed. I removed everything and now it will not spin. There also is a clicking sound. Is the transmission blown or...

The coupling below the tub and agitator has broken. the coupling hooks the motor to the transmission. Very easy repair and parts are cheap, around 20.00 for the part. While your at it get a set of agitator dogs. These are plastic tabs that go in the agitator, they are what causes it to agitate in one direction. These are also only 10.00 and it will save you a service call later. There are many posts and instructions on this repair and the best thing is you can do it yourself with little tools!

Series 90 with loud buzzing/grinding noise, won't spin

It could have gone out of balance. See if the drum looks off center and center it if necessary. Turn it off and back on to reset the switch. If that doesn't work, try pressing on the lid either 2/3 of the way back on the right or all the way back on the left (depends on the model -- try both) and see if it starts. If it does, I would suspect the lid switch.

Kenmore 90 series with speed selector switch set to heavy duty cycle it works fine any other setting , regular , hand wash setting the agitator makes a loud clicking sound as it agitates

sounds like a transmition problem. does the noise happen when it goes into spin on the other settings? If no noise in the spin cycle on the other setting, then it sounds like a the gears in the transmition internally when bad for the agitation.

Kenmore 90 series loud whirring/howling noise during spin cycle

Sounds like you have a broken motor coupler. They are inexpensive. Can be a little tough to replace but I can walk you through it. You can purchase a coupler here.

Loud Noise - Spin Cycle

If the washer is making a squealing noise, the problem is more likely to be the basket drive. If it is more like a rattling sound, the centerpost bearings are probably worn out. Open machine's rear panel and spin the basket manually by turning the drive pulley, to find out from where exactly the noise come from. Defective part should be replaced. Good luck !!
