Robert May 02, 2022 for Model Number mav6650aww when the machine is washing and agitating i sometime have a bad grinding noise . it doesnt do it all the time. could i have a bad bearing?
1 Answer Robert, it would be recommended that the brake assembly is inspected to identify if the snubber ring WP21002026 has broken down and is allowing the brake to grind on the drum. The agitator would also need to be checked to identify if there is debris underneath it. If the ring is good and there is not debris under the agitator, the grinding would likely be coming from the transmission 35-6615. Read More...
Jim June 09, 2018 for Model Number LNC6762A71 I have an Admiral washer it recently stopped agitating. It fills,spins and drains fine. While trying to figure out where the problem was,I found out that the motor pulley will only move counter clockwise. My understanding is that the agitation cycle requires the pulley to turn clockwise. What should I be looking at to correct this?
1 Answer Jim, In a machine that has a "dual direction" motor, like yours, if the motor runs in one direction, but not the other there's a 98% chance that the problem is in the timer, not the motor( there may be an issue in the switch contacts or wiring). The timer contacts reverse the polarity(voltage) to the motor switch, this in turn causes the motor to reverse direction and the motor will then run in the opposite direction. Read More...
Steven W May 06, 2018 for Model Number PAV2300AWW A year ago I had a vibration and replaced the snubber. 3 days ago it turned into a Tasmania devil spinning out of balance and shaking badly, replaced the springs and snubber. Not helpful and still a Tasmania devil. What else do I need to look for?
1 Answer Steven, For this issue the base kit would need to be replaced and would need part number 12002701. Read More...
Graham April 17, 2018 for Model Number MAV6457AWW I had a noisy spin cycle especially on high. I have replaced the belt, water pump and thrust bearing. When changing I checked the shaft and it did not have any play on it but wasn't perfectly smooth rotating. Its still noisy, so how do I know which other bearing is gone, the lower bearing assembly or the tub bearing? I can probably replace the lower assembly by taking off the brake without removing the tub and see if that fixes it or I can just go and pull the tub out and replace both? Thanks
1 Answer Hello Graham, This is most likely the upper bearing since it is the one most likely to have the grease washed out of it by a weaping of wash water from the tub seal should it begin to leak slowly as is common. Read More...
Chris March 16, 2018 for Model Number MAV4057AWW Lint screen at the water outlet was clogged and all the water gushed over the top of my top loader washer. After that, every time the washer spins in any of the cycles it makes a very loud grinding noise. It's quiet when filling with water and all else works fine, no vibrations, no wobbling. Just super loud. I am thinking bearing, but which one?
1 Answer Hello Chris, This is most likely going to be the thrust bearing 12002213 causing the issue. Read More...

Steven October 10, 2017 for Model Number MAV208DAWW The washer seems to do everything fine except the agitator is not working properly.I cannot rotate the bottom either clockwise or counter and the top rotates counter but not clockwise
1 Answer Steven, The bottom of the agitator will not turn by hand and the top will rotate counter clockwise but will rotate clockwise which means it is working normal. Read More...
Francis July 20, 2017 for Model Number MAV2755AWW My washer wobbles and squeals on spin cycle. I replaced 6 suspension springs, drive pulley, belt, and snubber ring. I noticed when tube gets up to speed on the spin cycle, it tilts to the right. The tub is level. What else can be the of this problem?
1 Answer Hello Francis. You will need to check the base of the washer and see if it has cracked. If so, it will cause this issue with the unit. Read More...
