See this Clutch repair post if you want to DIY. Is your Wash tub banging around in Spin Cycle? Do you error out of Spin Cycle with dC or uC error code to the LED Console display? You can check out the TDS but I would go right to the Clutch repair post if the machine shuts down in with a error code dC or uC.

That means the TDS is producing analog voltage swings +3.5VDC to 0VDC to the input of the Control Board Conn_P3 pins 10 and 11. Those DC voltage swings are at the design limit of Wash Tub movement and the Control Board shuts the Spin Cycle down……..so TDS is working as designed.

The machine will make several attempts to redistribute the load before the error code generation failing with dC or uC error codes. Please let us know what error coded you display.

I or other knowledge owners/DIY’ers or repair folks can help you. Please other forum members chime in for support.

Don’t get hung up in Front Strut issues or other WAG’s. Fix the Clutch Malfunction and your FAV6800A will be happy.

More than likely it just needs a little leveling...lift front of washer . there are 2 leveling feet on each front corner under the washer.. they turn like a screw ..just adjust these feet till its level and you should be ok....shake the washer by hand . if it doesnt move it shoud be level,,,,an unlevel washer makes terrible noises ...as you know..thanks and have a great day

Maytag neptune washer is very loud when in the spin cycle

I would ask Washerbearings.com and see if they have a bearing and seal kit already or if they can make one up for you for the FAV6800 top loaders.

I have a FAV6800AWC Top Load Maytag Neptune When in spin cycle you cannot keep it balanced, makes a banging soud (loud) and kickes washer off

Hi,

It sounds like the spin basket rear support is loose. The support is part of the spin basket & does not come separately. This type of repair will more than likely need the spin basket replaced & possibly the outer tub also. It will cost you $200-300 to replace the assembly.

Hope this helps.

Making a loud noise when washing

Is this a FAV6800A LED console model or a FAV9800A LCD console model?

You are in the Neptune FAV6800AW Top Load Washer forum and if it's one of those I would give you machine specific info to DIY the repair.

Which machine model?

Noise hear during washing cycle?

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.

When spinning it seems the washer is getting louder and louder during the spin cycle. It is a very steady noise no grinding to it. Maybe a bearing?

make sure heavy items are evenly distributed in the barrel. if to loud , stop the machin by openning the lid and make sure the weight is evenly distributed. never just throw laundry in , place it so wieght is evenly placed around.
