Out of balance spinning.

YouTube - Kenmore front load bearing 18 months and kaput! ....time for a new washer,the spider gear is gone,usually from using to much detergent,i've found parts of it in the pump,you'll know when you put it in spin it bangs very loud

Its being overloaded, most washers have an out of balance spin control which prevents the spin cycle if it cant balance the load, its to help protect the bearings. Hope this helps

Hi,
When my washer did that, I found that the shocks that hold the tub were bad...

Check out this tip I wrote about that...

I had a Fridadaire model and had the same problem. It could be 3 things. 1- the weight came loose that balances the drum. 2- the bracket that is attached to the drum could have cracked. 3. the bearings to the drum have worn out. All of these problems involve taking the washer completely apart. This is big process, but if you have time and patience it worth it.
Is this model belt driven?

check the drain pump in the bottom of the unit and verify its not clogged, verify unit is level, also check the support struts/springs for the tub.

Some front loaders have a super high speed at the end of the spin. Front loaders don't like small loads, the laundry does not spread out evenly enough for a balanced spin.

hi, sorry to say but the drum bearings are shot . and the balance weight on the underside off the machine is also shot .
would be alot cheaper to buy a new machine .

It is most likely out of balance, could be for many reasons.
1 could be too many heavy items such as jeans, towels, etc in one load.
2 could be the machine or floor is unlevel.
3 Could be a balance sensor needs replacing.

have you checked the pump out of the maachine
the pump may be blocked restricting water flow
if that is ok maybe you need to give the n
machine a hot wash the seals may be draging the spin down

I suggest you stick to the maximum load capacity (or less) of the machine; and not over-load the machine with clothes.
