Our Kenmore 92274100 washer will not turn. It makes a little whining noise and will allow the water to drain, but no movement. Is it a belt problem? Is it too old to fix?
Hi,
Yes it sounds like a belt. You have made a good diagnosis. Belt are inexspensive, but can be a pain in the rear to install.
You doing the work or someone else??? If it's you then probably fix it. If youare calling in service, then get a price before the person comes and decide if it's worth it.
Also if you are doing it you can find the part online easily.
Do a search for "appliance parts" and then enter your model number in one of the websites.
They will have exploded doagrams so you can see how the belt goes and also a parts menu.
Becareful and check pricing on a number of sites as the prices can vary greatly.
I hope that this will help you to solve your problem!
Thanks for using Fixya!!
