Samsung washing machine
Fault
The washing machine made an excessive rumbling noise during spin.
- Assessment
- Drum movement and support checks traced the roughness and spin noise to worn bearings.
- Work
- We replaced the bearings and bearing seal, checked the shaft and reassembled the tub and drive.
- Parts
- Drum bearings and bearing seal.
Checks and outcome
Leak checks were followed by a wash and progressively faster spin with a test load. The drum ran smoothly and the excessive noise had cleared.
