Samsung WF330ANW/XAA 01 nd code but will drain

I have a Samsung front load washer model WF330ANW/XAA 01 that is giving me a real headache! It keeps getting stuck on the nd code. There is around 30 minutes left on the cycle when it happens. But when I go in and press play it continues the cycle as normal and drains and spins fine to finish the cycle. What could be causing this? And how do I get it back to normal? Some background...I have drained the small hose in the front and checked the filter (clean, no obstructions). Please help!

Maytag bearing for front load washer

I have the above front end washer and I am trying to find a way to replace the bearing on the basket. Everything that I have researched and talked to one business says I have to purchase the entire Outer Rear Tub with a cost of $300.00 Is there a kit out there or can I replace somehow without purchasing the rear tub. Doesnt make sense.

Samsung WF337AAG/XAC No Spin, No Sound

Good day everyone I'm glad I could find a forum that I can ask my for a solution.

So basically my washer won't go in spin. I hear the water coming down, It drains without an issue when it's time to spin I hear the door clicking (lock) then nothing... No error codes either. No debris filter on that model.

I changed the pump. I removed every part and checked the spider shaft/arm. It's not broken but deteriorated on sides but it would spin a bit at least.

Anyone has idea what it could possibly be?

LG Washer WM2487HRMA - will not spin

Machine will not spin. Have swapped rotor position sensor, rotor assembly, and stator assembly with no luck.

Drum spins freely and smoothly by hand. Door switch seems to function properly, have not tried to switch that. Washer makes an intermittent clicking sound when in spin cycle - which is the same whether I have the rotor/stator assembly installed or not!

Any ideas what my problem is?

Motor starts and spins tub slows after a second and motor gets real hot

It will slow to a stop and just hum. Motor starts to get an electrical smell. I unplug it. Did diagnostic and said lid switch fault (F5 E2). Could the switch be the problem? No other error codes. It is a Maytag centennial.

WT1701CW LG Random power up/power down no codes

Hello,
I have a 3 year old LG WT1701CW topload washer and it recently started powering down between cycles.
I could power it back up and run the rinse/spin cycle but if I tried to run the wash cycle it may or may not make through the process. Sometimes it works perfectly.
Sometimes the touch panel won’t stay on long enough to select a cycle.
It just completed a wash cycle without issue and turn itself off. Then 2 minutes later the power on music came on by itself.
I thought something might be getting wet. I pulled the control board an visually inspected it.
The boards are potted well and no visible moisture or damage was noticeable. Disconnected all the plugs and reconnected looking for loose or poor connections.
Any suggestions?

Kenmore 90 Series Clicking Noise During Agitation Only (with video)

Searching this site, I believe I may have found the culprit. But I'd rather not influence anyone in case it's something else.

This is my 2nd Whirpool designed washer (plus an '80s model that I included in the sale of a rental back in 2006) and I'm aware of their reputation. And we all know they don't make 'em like this anymore. I believe my father still has his set from the early '70s. So I'd fix 'er if not too expensive.

Serial says she's 19 years old. I got her used about 4 years ago. She's done 3 loads a day since. I had to replace the dogs fairly early on and a door switch a little while back. Neither a big surprise nor expense.

She was running fine until a few days ago, then suddenly wasn't. Other than agitation, she functions completely normally. Hopefully the video speaks for itself...

MVWX600XW0 Maytag Bravos top load washer won't agitate or spin

The problems started with the wash cycle ending and the clothes in a wet pile on the bottom of the washer. I could get the machine to spin the clothes by using "drain & spin". The problem has progressed to not agitating or spinning at all, and not hearing any noise from the motor.
After reading this forum, testing and trying to diagnose, I have replaced the actuator and the Lid lock switch. This did not fix the problem.
Have seen the following codes:
F7 E6 motor fault
F7 E1 basket speed
F1 E2 motor control fault
F5 E4 lid not opened between cycles

Now when trying an automatic test, the lid lock switch light blinks continuously, and the test will not progress. However, doing a manual test everything seems to work but the switch test, spin and agitate cycles.

My next step would be to either replace the control board or the motor. Both of these parts are more expensive and I would like to narrow it down to the correct part before purchasing.
I have a multimeter, but am a novice at using it.

Hello all,
Been using this washer with no problems. Yet today the drain pump cam on and will not turn off. Drains the water out as the water goes in. When you turn the power off it continues. When u unplug and then plug it back it still continues. I have unplugged the washer for over an hour and than plugged it back in and pump still runs. I have down a few searches and it look like I may have to replace the control panel board?! Any other solutions out there? Thanks all for your input. LG WT1201CW

Samsung WF42H5000AW/A2 Not spinning

Bought a broken Samsung front load washer. Seller said it quit spin cycle. I was told he tried replacing pump and motor control board. I bought it thinking it needed a pcb. Replaced pcb same issue. Then i figured hall sensor so i just replaced the hall sensor and I’m still having the same issue. If i hit spin cycle it kicks the pump on for a bit shuts off the. Kicks pump on then begins to try and spin. All it does is jerk back and fourth or “wiggle”. I’m sick of throwing parts at it. Any insight on what my issue may be?

Kenmore 110.12502100 tripping thermal cutoff?

Hi,

My washer stops at random points during the wash, although can make it all the way through several washes as well. A month ago the 110 circuit the washer shares with a 110 volt dryer began to have its breaker trip- never done that in 10 years. I stopped running the dryer at the same time and the washer began to shut itself down with a hot electrical equipment smell coming from around the tub. I'm guessing the motor is drawing enough current to overheat itself when it has the whole circuit to itself but when its sharing with the dryer it trips the breaker before it overheats enough to shut down.

After an hour or so the machine will start and finish the cycle.

The obvious culprit would be the motor but I have read that a bad capacitor or a bad timer will cause this as well. The drum spins freely counter-clockwise but the break is on when trying to spin it clockwise. It will rotate, but requires some effort. I'm not sure if that's correct or not.

I hear no bad transmission sounds or squealing or grinding bearings. The thing sounds like it always has.

Throwing parts at a machine this old isn't what I want to do but with the correct diagnosis and the right parts this would make sense to repair for a variety of reasons- the most significant is that I have very limited space and if I need to buy new it will make the most sense to buy a stackable washer and dryer. So the other option starts at about $1,350.

Thanks in advance,

Clarke

Majestic Pinnacle MJ9250 RV Washer

Hi all,
Have just inherited this washer that has been stored outside for an unknown period of time. I am interested in getting it running, and have so far cleaned it inside and out and removed all debris...the washer looks in good condition, and when plugged in the power light illuminates. I have yet to hook it up to hot and cold and run it, as I'm concerned that doing so may cause some damage being as it's been stored outside....electrical,motor seized etc.etc. Can anyone advise me of the the steps I should take from this stage to see if the washer actually works? Fill with water and give it a shot? Some way of checking to see that the motor is not seized before filling? Any other checks I should do before actually trying it out?
Any and all help would be appreciated....I have tried to find the manual for this model number on line with no success....have only found one for the MJ9250W which has a spin cycle speed control knob....this one does not.
Could include pics of inside and out if needed.
Thanks.

LG WM2101HW no power

For a couple of weeks my washing machine would sometimes get stuck at 9 minutes left. It would spin but never finish. Sometimes it would eventually give me an error UL. Which I believe means Uneven Load. I tried moving things around and stuff but nothing really fixed the issue.
About a couple months after this, the unit would not power on at all. Tried different things to try and get power back to it. I ended up buying a new motherboard for the unit. I replaced it and it started working for 2 days. Again would still get stuck at around 9 minutes.
Then it stopped working again. No power.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions what it might be causing this?

Thanks in advance.

Bosch Nexxt 500 WFMC330SUC/03 smooth spin until hits final speed stage

I've searched through many threads but can't find an issue described quite like this one.

During spin cycle if you watch it, the drum rpm will increase in stages sort of like how a car with automatic transmission shifts from gear to gear during acceleration. It also looks like it has a "braking" stage at the end of the cycle to rapidly slow the drum rather than letting it freewheel down from 1200 rpm or whatever the max is.

My washer (model WFMC330SUC/03) smoothly and quietly ramps up through the various speeds, but then either when going from 3rd fastest to 4th fastest, or at the braking stage, makes loud banging/thumping sounds and also a screeching sound like rubber/metal slippage.

Up until that point (3rd gear, whatever you want to call it, about 800 rpm) it's as smooth and quiet as normal.

Transmission?

Many thanks for any thoughts.

GE washer doesn't spin

GTW330ASK0WW 1year old
Not sure if it's completing the wash cycle and I know it's not completing rinse cycle since the fabric softener is still in the cup. When I put it on drain and spin, it starts out okay and the basin begins to bounce around and it stops spin cycle and begins to fill up with water again. I've tried rearranging the clothes and even taking them out and putting back in but I really shouldn't have to do that and never had to do it before. I just keep stopping it and starting all over with drain and spin until I can get it to complete the spinning.

GE Washer WJSR20706 Agitates, drains but no spin

Washer left clothes soaking wet. Ran a few cycles. Confirmed that it agitates, drains completely but no spin.

Lid switch ok because agitation interrepts/resumes when opening and closing lid. (Top load machine)

Removed and cleaned the pressure switch tube. No blockage found. Cleaned inside nipple on plastic housing on side of tub where tube attaches. No blockage there either.

With front cover removed, confirmed belt is engaged and seated properly on both pulleys. During the spin cycle the pump drains tub completely and stays running but the motor doesnt spin at all.

With machine disconnected am able to spin motor clockwise by hand and confirm the tub indeed turns counter clockwise when viewed from top.

Removed belt and ran a cycle. Motor spun counterclockwise during what i assumed to be an agitation sequence but was completely lifeless during the spin cycle.

Removec knob from timer switch and confirmed the round dial plate behind it was properly seated.


Any ideas?

Washer not spinning - need ideas

My GE top load washer - wprb9220d1ww does not agitate or spin, in regular or maintenance modes. I have replaced the motor control board, reset the motor by lifting lid 6 times/12 sec, and confirmed via maintenance mode the door sensor works. I am getting VSD faults and once the lid lock fault. I am thinking the lid lock is not the problem since lock does not engage during agitation, is this correct? Could it still be lid lock? What else could be the problem?

Second guessing replacing washer... Bad bearings or something else?

Hi,

Need some advice before potentially spending money that doesn't need to be spent...

Our front load washer occasionally leaves holes in clothes, and the affected area is hard and almost burnt. When this happens, there is also a grey powder material all over the clothes and in the washer's gasket, and takes a lot of work to get out. I've assumed clothes are getting caught in the gasket, and the high speed spinning is causing the holes and sanding the gasket, resulting in the grey powder. This doesn't happen every load, but it is causing a money drain on losing clothes, and we're always concerned about losing something nice.

My wife says the loads aren't overloaded. I thought maybe I could get away with replacing the gasket and be done, but after following various google trails, I got the impression the bearing needs replacement. Since the washer is 7 years old, and we're tired of worrying about mold, leaving the door open, etc., we decided to take advantage of Black Friday and just replace it with an LG top load.

But now I'm second guessing, wondering if the bearing might not be bad. I've watched Youtube videos showing the movement of the inner tub separate from the outer. I can't get the inner tub to move separately as much as in the videos, but there does seem to be slight play.

So that said, does replacing the washer seem like the way to go at this point? I placed an order last night, but the lead time is going to be a few weeks so I'm trying to decide ASAP if I need to cancel the order. I've already decided if it's the bearing, we're definitely replacing. My other concern is if I do replace the gasket first as a test, we risk losing BF deals by the time I find out that wasn't the solution. We also have a few ergonomic reasons for replacement, like the fact that the dryer has to be to the left of our washer, meaning going around the door with laundry in an already cramped space. But that by itself isn't enough to be worth replacing the washer.

Sorry for the long story, and thanks for any help!

Maytag Centennial washer

Wife said she heard the washing machine making a pretty good screech the other day. Like a high pitched scraping noise. My first guess is something in the belt pulley has gone loose and the pulley is scraping against something.

Ran it intentionally today with a couple of towels, and high water level.. just to listen and observe.

It filled, then nothing until it just drained. No agitation, no spin. No 'screeching' noise either.
Ran it again, this time, it filled, agitated, and just started to spin... then the basket coasted to a stop. But the motor was still running. I could just 'peek' under the lid enough to witness this. I could see the agitator wasn't spinning, but WAS 'wiggling'.

So I learned how to run the diagnostics, and retrieve error codes. Before I ran the diagnostics, I grabbed the error codes first;

First set of lights after clicking the knob to 'done' and hitting 'start';

Sensing (F code) plus wash, rinse, spin and done. Is this F15? it's confusing, because it flashes 2x's, then a gap... then flashes 2x's again. repeat. Edit; I think the 'gap' is the E code, with nothing to show. The next 3 codes seemed easier to figure out;
F-O E2 too much soap suds
F-5 E1 lid switch fault
F-7 E5 actuator/shifter


So, I 'cleared' the error codes, then ran the diagnostics. Exact same codes came up. I 'cleared' them again, and without running diagnostics, I pulled the codes again. Still there. I thought that holding the start/stop button for at least 3 seconds was supposed to clear it?? I unplugged it for over an hour too, still has the errors.

I'm hoping that a lid switch and an actuator will do the trick. I've read that the drive pulley was prone to getting loose too.. so will check that and the condition of the drive belt tomorrow.
Any other thoughts on why I can't clear the codes?
