Wash with slow tumble is fine. There is no leaking that I can see.
As the spin cycle picks up speed, I hear a loud rapping, as if something like a belt was slapping against something with each revolution. It can get pretty loud. Also, with the machine empty, if I reach in and try to move the drum, the drum seems to move excessively easil Any, to the point of feeling flimsy. (there’s a word that I don’t get to use often enough!) Any ideas?
I have dismantled the unit and low and behold, 2 of the 3 spider brackets are broken. I can’t be certain of the bearings, though if I decide to replace the spin basket assy., I will do the bearings also. Being in the $300 neighborhood for parts alone does make it a difficult decision. Thank you for your help, Rich.
