My washer tangles up my clothes. I swear someone goes downstairs and ties the clothes up. They are always a tangled mess thats hard to pull apart when they are wet! Help!!!

Here are a few suggestions.
Sometimes too much water ( or not enough clothes) will result in tangled clothes.
Sometimes the types of clothes will tangle more easily than others.
( Thin cotton tee shirts or long cotton dresses might tangle easily. )
I might recommend you mix in some heavier and thicker items to help, such as towels or blue-jeans and see if that fixes the problem.
God bless your efforts.

I have the same problem, seems as if this washer always tangles the clothes, there is really no solution.

WOO HOO I FIGURED IT OUT!!!! You have to pull it apart from the base up. First thing I did was take off the feet. If you look down the tower potion you can see a screw. Then u took off the tower. I figured out that if you just lined up the black square portion it would have come apart with just the one screw. Anyways now there is 2 more screws to get. 3 total to take the new bright tc36 tower crane apart. They are hard to see, but once the base is off you can get at em. Good luck everyone.

Sounds like you are overloading the washer.

My Husqvarna started having problems with the bobbin. The thread from the bobbin side is a tangled mess when I stitch. The top looks fine, but the seam falls apart easily and the backside is all tangled. I cleaned underneath the bobbin holder but it didn't help.

this washer has a provision to keep rinsing until the oversudsing condition is cleared [SUD] - this is caused by using too much detergent or the wrong kind of detergent - use only HE rated detergent, it is formulated to clean with a minimum of sudsing - why are the clothes tangled? you're overloading

No - The clothes will not agitate properly.


Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question.

the washer has a balance ring that hold water that is ok. as of the tangleing you may have a low water fill

grabbed this of an official whirlpool web site: Clothing in the washer can become tangled and twisted or balled up.
Under certain conditions, a combination of the wash load, the cycle selected and the subsequent load movement can cause
the load to become tangled or twisted.
The wash impeller has been redesigned to make the wash load less likely to tangle under the conditions mentioned above.
Replace the wash impeller with part #W10141017.
willing to bet your serial number is before this number here. easy enough part to switch if its no longer under warr

This part is a problem on many front-loaders and never really goes away. The rubber seal is a replaceable part and should be supplied under warranty. There is no way to fix it.You should try very hard to get Sears to pick up the labor cost as well.
