Intermittent Loud Whirring Noise

Sounds like you have a defective wheel bearing.

Hi tuck just read your posting.Now on the low whirring noise on the start of the rinse cycle ,Is it when the machine is draining the water or filling with water.If the noise happens when the machine is draining then I think either your pump has something slowing it down or it is faulty.Please look underneath the machine to the front right and you should see a red or black fan .If you do then this is your pump.If you don't see a fan you must have the newer style of pump.Please reply with additional information on the questions and I am sure I can help you rectify this problem

There is 2 possible problems. 1. Pump will make noise as soon as the drain and spin starts. 2. Rear bearing this noise usually starts later in cycle as the drum gets up to final speed. The rear bearing of coarse is the most expensive of the two as it is part of the outer tub.

Yes, It is still safe but very annoying...
The source is probably the guide rollers for the drum or the belt tensioner pulley. To know for sure you will need to pull the dryer apart and turn it by hand slowly and see where the noise is coming from...

I m not sure what your asking . so let me try . you corrected your problem . and it's working . i think it's great. now in a couple of day's it may do it again. generaly if you have ice build up like you described . then you may have a defrost problem.if you do . then you must correct it . the heater / or timer or thermo may be out . so if the problem comes back /get me the brand & moder #.. **** hope this helped mm

The whirring sound is the fan that blows cold air into the refrigerator. It is supposed to stop when the door is opened. If it is making a loud noise there may be ice built up in the fan housing. Turning the power to the refrigerator off for a 2-4 hours may allow any ice in the fan to melt. If you do not open the freezer during that time the frozen food will not defrost.If the noise continues, you may have to take the fan apart to make sure it is not frozen. It is probably located behind the back inside panel of the freezer.

The Color Wheel in the Optical Engine is what is most likely causing the problem. It is a very expensive part and I would call Toshiba at 1800-631-3811 and see if they could help you with the cost and also referring a Service Repair Facility to you.
I hope this helps,

Sounds like you have a broken motor coupler. They are inexpensive. Can be a little tough to replace but I can walk you through it. You can purchase a coupler here.
