MLV45N1BWW Midea washer water level

I just got a new midea washer # MLV45N1BWW. How does the washer know how much water to add to a small load of clothes opposed to a large load. I mean my last washer had a switch to select small, medium, large. This washer does not have this. It does have a button you can push called water plus which acording to the manual will add a bit more water if its not enough. I washed some clothes earlier a medium load, it seem to need more water so i pressed the water plus button and it did add more...

Bosch Washer WFVC6450UC/25 drum wobble and bang

Hi
I've got a Bosch WFVC6450UC/25 washer where the drum seems to have abruptly started wobbling when spinning and making a banging noise.

You can see a video of it here: https://streamable.com/d1j0dm
Or in slow motion: https://streamable.com/w5kmsa

Any ideas on the cause? It moves off-center by maybe about an inch once per revolution always at the same point in the revolution. Is it maybe the bearing in the rear part of the tub/drum?

Does anyone have a copy of the...

Speed Queen Washer AWN311SP111TW01 - Wont agitate

Noticed our clothes are wetter than normal at the end of the cycle. Now I am seeing that it's not agitating as well.
  • Washer fills fine
  • Never starts to agitate and I cannot manually get it started by moving the dial
  • Drains and spins (although I am not sure if it is spinning at full force or not - wet clothes)
  • Timer still goes through the entire cycle
Sounds
  • No weird sounds although a couple times it sounded like it wanted to "kick on" and start agitating...

Fisher & Paykel Washer IWL12 inner tub floats too high

I just had to replace the bearings in my my Fisher & Paykel IWL12, but now when the inner tub floats up, it presses against the neck ring at the top, which is causing water to splash out the back when the recirculating hose is spraying.

I also just ordered a new diverter valve because I think it is stuck on divert and wont drain.

So two questions....
1) is the inner tub supposed to float up that high (I never paid attention before), and if not, are there any recommendations on how to get...

AWN542SP111TW Squealing Speed Queen Top Loader Washer

I am having a problem with our Speed Queen Top Load Washer.
My wife told me it started last week and brought it to my attention tonight.

I think I know the problem but I need you guys to help tell me if I am right and a Part Number if you can come up with one.
What it is doing is squealing during the spin cycle and at times it is worse than other times. I am pretty sure what it is but I wanted you guys to tell me if you think I am right.

First, I do not believe it is a bad bearing.
I know...
