Washer has started making a heck of racket during the drain/spin cycle. It's not consistant. Two loads may go thru ok no noise. A third load and it will make a very loud grinding chain like noise.

Hello Bill Johnson - Is the washer draining or spinning? Could it possibly be a humming noise? If it is not doing either or and making a humming noise then it could possibly have a restriction in the drain line. Or either the belt is loose and will have to be put around the transmission and then spin it on to the motor or there is an issue with the lower/upper bearing. I would suggest contacting a professional to move forward accurately to properly diagnose/repair the washer.

The washer timing control is defective.

Most noises from a washing machine occur during the rinse or spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.This will solve your problem.

my washer won't spin

I have the same problem...the solution is called new washer. I was told it could be overhauled to the tune about $600...barrings are going out. Mine is just 7 years old and that's disappointing.

if it's making a loud buzzing noise while its suppose to be agitating or spinning its the motor coupling

Time for a new one.
Sound like you have done the main shaft bearing.

try pulling off lower acess panel. theres apump in rigth side corner . does it sound like theres something gaught in the squeeze the hose, try opening the door assy can you lift up on the inner basket. does it appear to have a bit of laterral movement???? how old is it???

turn the tub on the inside if it feels ruff as it turns and makes a noise then most likely you have a bad rear bearing, if it is smooth in turning and no noise then turn to drain or spin possibly something stuck in drain pump. the drain pump will start up first if you hear the noise then the drain pump is accessed from the front lower cover, if its the rear bearing probably not worth fixing about 400.00 in parts and alot of work.
