Need a bit of diagnostic help, please - My Atlantis 9600 occasionally does not spin. The key points:
-
All aspects of every cycle usually work perfectly.
-
Occasionally, the washer will not spin, though it agitates and drains correctly in these cases.
-
Very rarely, the tub will ‘bind up’ at the spin cycle; in these cases, the belt is dragging/even burning a bit. I’ve stopped the machine, wiggled things around, and have thus far been able to get it going again.
Does this sound like the tub bearing (assembly) to you?
Is it safe to say that, since I have consistent agitation, the transmission is AOK?
Also, I have a replacement thrust bearing kit on hand - which I haven’t yet installed - could this all be caused by a bad thrust bearing? (My understanding was that the thrust bearing is only in play on the agitation cycle - obviously, I don’t know this machine well enough yet!)
Many thanks!
