Whirlpool Ultimate Care II Washer (15 yrs old) stopped suddenly this morning in the middle of the spin cycle. Made a loud noise that sounded so much like a pressure washer, I thought someone was outside with one. The noise is loud and grinding/gravelly sounding.
Some key points that might be helpful:
Despite the loud noise, when leaving it on spin I got all the water to drain out.
When empty I cannot spin the drum at all
I refilled on xsmall load to troubleshoot. It fills fine, but noise returns when the agitation cycle starts. The agitator spins very very slowly.
In the past, I've replaced the agitator dogs and lid switch
Just recently, it started going into the spin cycle without the lid closed
Hoping someone can help me figure out the problem. Then I would like to know if this is something that can be fixed at low cost and is reasonably easy to do.
Thanks very much.
