depending on your exact mode;
sounds like a brake, or a clutch
those are really only two parts it could be
on the whirlpool the brake is part of the transmission on the direct drive
The pump will make a sort of cyclic "creaking" noise just before it goes bad. You might want to remove the back panel and inspect the drive belt, make certain there are no knicks, loose pieces of rubber or it is slipping.
Let me know.
Regards,
do you notice if it agitates? if it doesnt agitate it is just a simple coupling if it is making a humm noise its the motor if a LOUD rumble ONLY on spin cycle, its the basket drive assembly and the clutch.
It sounds like the washer tub is off balanced. When it is, it will usually not start. Underneath the washer, there are 3 or 4 bolts or nuts, depending on your washer model, that hold the washer to these balance springs. make sure that the bolts or nuts are tight or secure. If this doesn't help, get on a website called Repairclinic.com. They usually will help with home repairs.
sounds as if you have a bad mootor coupling, part number 285753, easy enough part to change, easier to search on the you tube site for whirlpool motor coupling repair, fo rthe video, then try to explain procedure, but definalty easy enough repair for home owner
hi thanks for the question the problem you have is with a part called drive coupling which is situated on the motor and transmission replace this part thanks te appliance doc
this is a direct drive unit it will spin or make alot of noise. do you have the spin speed set correctlly to what your washing if so look under unit and check motor coupling and look for any signs of transmission oil leaks
