TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience Possible Causes Solution
Vibration or Off-Balance
Check the following for
proper installation or
see “Using Your Washer”
section.
Feet may not be in contact with the
floor and locked.
Front and rear feet must be in firm contact with floor, and
washer must be level to operate properly.
Washer may not be level. Check floor for flexing or sagging. If flooring is uneven, a 3/4"
(19 mm) piece of plywood under your washer will reduce sound.
See “Level the Washer” in Installation Instructions.
Load could be unbalanced. Load dry items in loose heaps evenly around basket wall.
Adding wet items to washer or adding more water to basket
could unbalance washer.
Wash smaller loads to reduce imbalance.
Do not tightly pack. Avoid washing single items.
Use Heavy Duty Regular cycle and Deep Fill or Large load
size for oversized, non-absorbent items such as comforters or
poly-filled jackets.
See “Cycle Guide” and “Using Your Washer” in this Use and
Care Guide.
Noises
Clicking or metallic noises Objects caught in washer drain
system.
Empty pockets before washing. Loose items such as coins could
fall between basket and tub or may block pump. It may be
necessary to call for service to remove items.
It is normal to hear metal items on clothing such as metal snaps,
buckles, or zippers touch against the basket.
Gurgling or humming Washer may be draining water. It is normal to hear the pump making a continuous humming
sound with periodic gurgling or surging as final amounts of water
are removed during the Drain/Spin cycles.
Humming Load sensing may be occurring. You may hear the hum of the sensing spins after you have started
the washer. This is normal.
Water Leaks
Check the following for
proper installation:
Washer not level. Water may splash off basket if washer is not level.
Fill hoses not attached tightly. Tighten fill-hose connection.
Fill hose washers. Make sure all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated.
Drain hose connection. Pull drain hose from washer cabinet and properly secure it to
drainpipe or laundry tub.
Check household plumbing for leaks
or clogged sink or drain.
Water can back up out of a clogged sink or drainpipe. Check
all household plumbing for leaks (laundry tubs, drain pipe, water
pipes, and faucets.)
Washer not loaded as recommended. Unbalanced loading can cause basket to be out of alignment
and cause water to splash off tub. See “Using Your Washer” for
loading instructions.
Washer not performing as expected
Washer won’t run or fill,
washer stops working
or wash light remains
on (indicating that the
washer was unable to fill
appropriately)
Check for proper water supply. Both hoses must be attached and have water flowing to
inlet valve.
Both hot and cold water faucets must be turned on.
Check that inlet valve screens have not become clogged.
Check for any kinks in inlet hoses, which can restrict water flow.
