We recently started washing a lot of very dirty clothes, and my bravos x (mvwx700xw1) has shown that it has a host of problems.
First and foremost, the agitator will not spin when any weight is present. It spins fine under empty test conditions, but as soon as a towel or something is placed on it, it feels like the drive is slipping underneath. When I pick it back up, it spins normally, which tells me the teeth engage fine and it’s something under the tub.
Similarly, the spin cycle seems like it slips and cannot keep the basket going.
Maybe as a result, maybe not, the washer will give a bunch of rinse cycles. Error code indicates it sensed suds which is preposterous since I use sud free soap. My guess here is that since the clothes don’t get agitated and washed they float and set off the suds detector.
So I think my main problem is with the drive. What should the next step be? Let me know if I can provide any additional info and all help is greatly appreciated.
