New TC5000WN Speed Queen TC5 Washer with noise during agitation

Hi, got my new TC5 delivered and it is making a scraping/grinding sound during agitation only. I have had it since 1/21/21 and have done 5-6 loads of laundry using various cycles and water levels. Each time the same noise is there during agitation. I have read that sometimes there are unusual noises with these until they are broken-in, but wanted to get some feedback on this particular sound. I also sent this video to SQ tech and am waiting on their opinion. I appreciate any...

Accidentally Poured Drano In Washing Machine

I thought I was grabbing the detergent, but I grabbed a bottle of Drano and poured about a half cup in the washing machine before I realized the mistake. I ran the machine twice since then, with no load, to hopefully rinse it all away. What are the chances I did damage to the machine? What should I be looking out for? Thank you.

Deco Super Combo 4400 Washer/Dryer - Leak where detergent tray module meets rest of unit

Hello,

I recently moved into a new apartment which has a front loading Deco Super Combo 4400 Washer/Dryer serial # 170425005501. When I first attempted to use the unit's heavy cycle, water was leaking profusely from the detergent tray and the bottom of the door.

I checked the water pressure of the hot/cold pipes leading into the unit and both read at ~71 psi, well within range of the unit's operating pressure according to the manual.

I inspected the boot for cracks, rips, or tears and did...

LG washing machine Thermistor couple

Hi there. I was getting a TE error on my LG washing machine. Took it apart and the white couple that goes into the thermistor couple both the wires just fell out.
I could probably get the the 2 wires back in the couple and crimp them in but I don't know which one goes in which connector because they both came out at the same time? Blue and white wire?
Thanks

Frigidaire washer / dryer combo unit FEX831CSO

Washer not draining - repaired but still getting small items sucked into pump.

I have replaced the drain pump (pulled a small dish cloth from hose) on the washer but the unit still keeps getting clogged. Is there a filter of some sort that keeps items from getting into the drain line?

Any advice would be greatly helpful.


Thanks!

HE Questions

I just bought a used Whirlpool Duet. I didn't realize this is HE--actually I never heard of that before.

-- How much water should there be? It fills up with enough water to make sloshing sounds.
-- How hard should it agitate? It does agitate, but there are big pauses when the drum is just sitting. There's definitely no problem spinning. I've never seen a washer spin so fast.
-- It has error codes: C00, C01, F20, F22, F34, and U01.

So my purpose in posting is to get some advice on...

Kenmore W10338636 washer overfills.

So this is an older washer, but it's been in use for less than a year, for a variety of uninteresting reasons.

It overfills until it spills out onto the floor. Here's what I've checked so far:

- Checked the fill valve by starting a rinse cycle and then pulling the plug. It stops as it should.

- Checked the water pressure level switch. I popped the hose off the tub and blew into it. I can hear the device click in there. Furthermore, I ran a rinse cycle on large load, and blew into the...

ITW4871FW1 Inglis (Whirlpool) Washer Squeak only during fill cycle

Hello!

I have a Inglis (Whirlpool) Model: ITW4871FW1, High Efficiency top load washing machine. During the fill cycle (when the washer is first turned on) it makes an ear piercing squeak as the agitator turns while it fills with water. It does this most times, but not every time the washer is used. For the remainder of the wash cycles, including the second fill cycle, it does not make this sound. I'm stumped as to what is causing it. I know it's not a water pressure issue because we live on...

Asko 240v washer with a 120v drain pump

I recently picked up an Asko washer with a burnt control board. Someone had mistakenly installed a 120v pump when it should have a 220v pump.
Could the wrong pump have caused the control board failure?
