How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the washer before removing the rear panel.

  • Check belt: Remove rear panel and inspect the belt between motor and drum pulley. Refit if slipped; replace if broken or frayed.
  • Spin drum by hand: If very stiff or grinding, suspect bearing or foreign object.
