There is probably something stuck between the inner and outer tub. The machine will have to be dismantled to remedy this.

What causes our front loading washer to make exceeding loud noise when it enters a spin?

Sounds like a bearing seal is going. The seal has ruptured and grease of seeping out. The loud noise is the bearings rubbing against each other without adequate grease to reduce the friction. Failure will come soon if it is not fixed. The vibration is coming from the friction and possibly damaged ball bearings .

Hotpoint wf240 - jumps around when spinning laundry - the problem seems to be the drum turns too fast before the spin so the laundry is balled up before the spin - has anyone any ideas on how to fix...

Ensure that your machine is on a level surface with equal weight on the four legs. There are adjustable feet on these machines so as to balance the load on each support. These supports are adjustable by twisting them clockwise/anti-clockwise to get the correct balance.

We have a Hotpoint washer model VBSR2080WOWW purchased 2001. Problem is that clothes often don't smell fresh at end of cycle. There is a musty or mildewy odor or sometimes they have body odor. Problem is...

you have too much body fat built up in the hoses and main barrel what you need to do is run it with pure hot water and put a dish washer cleaner fluid in the wash this will destroy all residue that has built up in your washer that is rotting as it sits.

good luck

Hotpoint VBSR2080WOWW washing machine vibrates with loud noise

hi,
this is a generic problem with top-loading washing machines. when the distribution of load is not uniform, it gives sound when spinning. if it produces noise even after equal distribution of clothes, the problem lies in the suspension. this is not a major fault, and can be put up with, rather than spending dollars on fixing it. this will in no way cause any special wear and tear for the machine.
cheers

Loud banging noise when machine goes into spin mode. sounds like it is banging on the side. Please help !

Usually this is an out-of-balance condition caused by too much weight on one side of the tub, move the clothes around and try again.

No agitate/no spin/yes spin in rinse

this is a drive shaft issue. this shaft is connected to the gear case and the gears may be stripped or the clutch may be damaged. there are many plastic parts here in this area that can break due to heavy load or just old age. replacing the internal parts and clutch will fix these issue you are having.

Hotpoint WMA35

Remove lower rear cover of washer, remove belt, undo 2 screws securing motor, remove motor wiring plug,, lever back motor and remove motor.

Remove carbon brushes at end of motor, and check for wear, if less than 8-10mm long, then replace them.
Clean armature with emery cloth or sandpaper before fitting new brushes, if it still does not work then the motor is probably faulty.
Plz rate my solution.
Thanks.

Model MAV3855AWW revision 26 loud knocking sound during agitation, weak spin clothes are soaked after spin cycle belt replaced

The problem is 2 fold. The "knocking" noise is indicative of brake rub. The fix is to replace the rotor & stator. The reason that your clothing are coming out wet is because the brake is dragging along a polished stator when in spin and cannot get up to its proper speed as a result. The 2nd item that should be replaced is the thrust bearing assy. This is what enables the transmission to transition from agitation to spin... Hope this helps... Bill
