Kenmore Elite front load washer (model: 110 42936200) won't spin. It makes a buzzing/humming sound when it should be spinning. Any suggestions?

The washer went through cycle normally, rinsed and drained clothes, but then it would not spin during spin cycle. There was an error code of "F2".

F2 mean that you have a drainage problem and could be that the pump is clogged. I believe the pump can be accessed from the front of the washer. Also make sure electrical connections are secure. Make sure no hoses are clogged or kinked anywhere.

My Kenmore Elite He4t front load washer is making a terrible noise when it starts spinning the clothes. What could be wrong?

Sounds like the rear bearing. If you hear the noise when you manually spin the drum or if the drum has any movement when you lift up on it then you need major repairs

Kenmore Elite King Capacity wont agitate or spin

Following is the Sears Parts site for your washer:

Following is the Whirlpool / Kenmore installation and maintenance PDF for top load, direct drive washers. It includes troubleshooting and testing sections for both the motor and capacitor.

Buzzing sound

does it ever give an error code? a common problem on whirlpool made machines is the dispenser arm getting caught when changing positions. This part is in rear of detergent dispenser housing and uses a motor and a arm to select detergent/ softner/ bleach/ and fill. you can remove top (screws on back) to watch this.
