Sam July 12, 2011 for Model Number AAV7000AWW There is a grinding noise some of the time when in the cycle of washing, however when it starts to spin it has a grinding noise during the spin cycle. What do I need to do?
1 Answer Hi Sam. It sounds like you have either an upper spin bearing or the lower spin bearing going bad. Pull the unit out and lean it on its back against the wall. Look up from the bottom and remove the drive belt. With your hand , start to spin the motor pully, pump pulley and main transmission pulley. Look up underneath the tub at the area where the tub and the agitator shaft meet. Do you see any black or brown throw off of oil or burnt tub seal? This will tell you of which part to replace. The drain pump part # is WP35-6780. Thank you. Read More...
