Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before internal inspection.
- Inspect drum interior: Check the drum holes and lifters for protruding objects. Remove any visible foreign items.
- Check door seal gap: Gently pull back the door gasket and look into the gap between drum and tub for trapped objects. Carefully remove with pliers if accessible.
- Spin test: Rotate the drum by hand. If grinding persists and no object is found, bearings or spider may be failing.
- Professional repair: Bearing or spider arm replacement on Hisense combos usually requires tub disassembly and should be done by a qualified technician.
