Whirlpool Washing Machine: Why is the Whirlpool top load washing machine very loud during spin?

Wed, 04 Feb 2026 09:09:51 -0700

Whirlpool WTW8127LC0 washer is very loud while spinning. Sound has started recently. Not a thumping type of sound but a loud noise. It sounds almost like a jet airplane taking off or something. Machine doesn't have any other issues. Would this be the slider going bad or something else?

Whirlpool Washing Machine: Front Load Washer Rubber Door Seal Not Aligned? Whirlpool WFW560CHW

Tue, 05 Aug 2025 20:44:20 -0700

Currently renting a unit and noticed clothes sometimes smelled out of the washer. Peeled back the door seal and can see that the holes don't align.

Are the holes in the seal supposed to align with the holes in the solid plastic in front of it? (see picture)

Also are those black dots mold?

Whirlpool Washing Machine: Why is my Whirlpool washer constantly draining?

Fri, 27 Jun 2025 02:22:32 -0700

I have a Whirlpool WTW4816FW3 top loading washer that keeps draining when it’s not on. It happens with no lights on the control panel on and it does it constantly. When it’s not on it sounds like it’s running.

When I unplug it stops, but as soon as I plug it back in it immediately starts to drain again.

Serial number is CD3801342. Bought less than a year ago in October or September 2024 I think.

Whirlpool Washing Machine: Washing Machine won't drain!

Fri, 25 Apr 2025 07:16:12 -0700

My front loading LG washing machine keeps stopping at spin cycle and then I get a message to drain the machine. I drain it from the hose bottom left front of machine. I get over a bucket water out of machine when i get message to drain. I then start the machine again and it does the same thing. I pulled the plug hoping to reset the machine but after spin cycle it still does the same thing. Could it be the pump? I've checked all hoses and there is no clog.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Whirlpool Washing Machine: Whirlpool washer is very loud on spin cycle

Tue, 18 Mar 2025 09:01:38 -0700

It’s very loud on the spin cycle and I don’t know why. It works and it still cleans our clothes and spins them out, it’s just extremely noisy.

Can I run it like this with the loud noise or should I repair it? It is balanced and there’s no banging, it’s just really loud.

Model number is WTW4915EW1
