SEE 5.5 Washer Won't drain or some abnormal noise
Door or Lid Latch
Assembly
The lid switch assembly might be defective. This is a very
common problem. The lid switch assembly can fail either
mechanically or electrically. Test any electrical switches with
an Ohm meter for continuity. The switches should have
continuity according to their design.
Tub Seal and Bearing
Kit and Balance Ring
If the washer won't spin the tub seal and bearing kit and
Balance Ring might need to be replace. This is a very
involved repair and will require disassembling most of the
washer. If the bearing is bad the problem is going to get
worse very quickly and so either the kit will need to be
replaced or the washing machine.
The suspension rod
assembly
The suspension rod assembly connects the tub subassembly
to cabinet. It reduces the vibration of the washer during
washing and spinning.Washer vibration can occur if one or
more suspension rods are broken. Check all four rods,
replace any that are broken.
