First try the solutions suggested here and possibly avoid the cost of a service call...
Noisy, vibrating, off-balance
■ Is the floor flexing, sagging or not level? Flooring that
flexes or is uneven can contribute to noise and vibration of
the washer. A ³⁄₄" (1.9 cm) piece of plywood under the washer
will reduce the sounds. See "Installation Instructions."
■ Is the laundry center level? The laundry center must be
level. See "Level Laundry Center."
■ Is the load balanced? Evenly distribute the load in the
washer basket and make sure the height of the load does not
exceed the top row of basket holes.
■
Are the gears engaging after the drain and before spin, or
is the upper part of agitator clicking during wash? These
are normal washer noises.
■ Is the washer gurgling or humming? When the washer
drains, the pump will make a continuous humming with
periodic gurgling or surging sounds as the final amounts of
water are removed. This is normal.
■ The washer basket moves while washing. This is normal.
Washer won't run, fill, rinse or agitate; washer stops

TROUBLESHOOTING WASHER

Washer and Components

Washer Operation

Leaking
■ Are the fill hoses tight?
■
Are the fill hose gaskets properly seated? Check both
ends of each hose. See "Connect Inlet Hoses."
■ Is the drain hose properly installed? The drain hose should
be secured to the drainpipe or laundry tub. See "Secure Drain
Hose."
■ Is the sink or drain clogged? Sink and drainpipe must be
able to carry away 17 gal. (64 L) of water per minute. If sink or
drainpipe is clogged or slow, water can back up out of
drainpipe or sink. Check household plumbing (laundry tubs,
faucets, drainpipe, water pipes) for leaks.
■ Is water splashing off the tub ring? Center the tub before
starting the washer.
■
Is water splashing off the load? Evenly distribute the load in
the washer basket and make sure the height of the load does
not exceed the top row of basket holes. The fill or spray
rinses can splash off the load.
■ Are you using an extension cord? Do not use an extension
cord.
■ Is the indicator on the Cycle Control knob properly lined
up with a cycle? Turn the Cycle Control knob to the right
slightly and pull to start.
■ Are the water inlet valve screens clogged? Turn off the
water and remove inlet hoses from the washer. Remove any
accumulated film or particles. Reinstall hoses, turn on water
and check for leaks.
■ Are both the hot and cold water faucets turned on? Turn
on the water.
■
Is the water inlet hose kinked? Straighten the hoses.
■ Does the water level seem too low, or does the washer
appear to not fill completely? The top of the agitator is
much higher than the highest water level. This is normal and
necessary for clothes to move freely.
■ Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker
tripped? Replace the fuse, or reset the circuit breaker. If the
problem continues, call an electrician.
■
Is the washer in a normal pause in the cycle? The washer
pauses for about 2 minutes during certain cycles. Allow the
cycle to continue. Some cycles feature periods of agitation
and soak.
