Darlene for Model Number ghw9400pw0 My front loader washer started making a banging noise. My husband took it apart and found that the plastic front tub assembly was all chewed up and the filings were all in the pump assembly. He wants to replace the front tub assembly but I am concerned as to what caused it to happen. Did something else go bad causing the tub to wear apart like that?
Answer Hello Darlene, This damage was initiated by the spin basket WPW10269756 "spider" having either a broken arm or the screws have come out. You can verify this by pushing up on the center top of the spin basket. Turn the spin basket 1/3 of a turn and do it again. Turn it 1/3 of a turn and do it one more time. If the spinner support has an issue, one of the three positions you tried will have much more play than the other two positions. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, March 7, 2014
