My washer will not spin out (I see the drum moving)....

Good Afternoon Amy,

I understand that your Frigidaire washer, model# FTF530ES, knocks during the spin cycle. I also see that the drum moves from front to back and not up and down. I suggest making sure that your washer is level from front to back, side to side, and from corner to corner. If after leveling you washer, the drum is still moving from front to back, I suggest contacting your local authorized technician for further assistance. They will be able to diagnose your washer and determine why the drum is moving from front to back. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

does the drum move as you spin it (if so poss stuts) makes a scrapping sound
Just check to see if the drum moves more than it should

my kenmore doesn't spin

Your transmission is going bad.

There was a recall on the washer base, which caused the unbalanced problem. Find Technical Buletin TDL-0050B-B issued by Matag.

under the drum is a plastic support that can wear out. it must be replaced. if you do it yourself not too expensive

Drum bearings or motor needs to be replaced

check hub nut, it is likely loose, its under the agitator. top pops off agitator and bolt hold agitator down.

kenmore tumble action washer model#417.44152400,
Washer is approximately 3 years old. Will not drain or spin. When it tries to spin, clicking noise heard inside of unit. Would a clog insie the lines disable the spin cycle ?

drum is stationary in wash and moves only in spin
