Hello all,
Today my washing machine became violent. During spins while washing (not drying) with a regular sized load it shook hard and banged and even jumped! Its not an out-of-balance condition - if I wasnt there to shut if off it would have gone through the wall.
From the top I checked the 2 springs look OK and from the bottom the 2 shock absorbers look OK. Some googling shows it might be the spider-bracket inside the plastic tub, which is a MAJOR repair. But, with NO clothes at all, it spins fine and barely shakes at all.
So before I dismantle the entire machine to check the spider bracket, I wanted to ask if that piece was broken, would it spin at all and spin OK when empty?
If it is that bracket, is there ANY way to get just a bracket and not the whole $$$ tub?
Thanks for any help…
