Jeffsb for Model Number GHWN5250D0WS Washing machine goes through cycle and spins. In spin cycle it make a very loud banging sound. Opened up panel -- the balancers are on and the rubber tie downs on. Can it be the agitator/coupling? I pulled off the agitator and put back on. It seems to have a little movement when I shake it)
Answer Jeff, We wouldn't expect the agitator coupler to be the issue, there can be a " little" up & down and side to side play in the agitator, but shouldn't make a "very loud banging sound." You'll want to check the motor, counterbalance, and base of the washer to see if anything is loose, broken or bent. check the base to see if the motor and carriage has been banging or rubbing against the base or housing, indicating the top "apron".has started to "droop". You didn't mention any leaks or discoloration inside the cabinet, so you'll need to check and make sure the hub nut isn't loose and check the agitator and spin tube shaft for any excess wear, play, and discoloration, that could create a loud banging noise in the spin cycle.
