An (understandably) unadvertised feature of the Series 90 machines is the hidden, built-in handgun. Obviously drunk on power and enzyme-laden liquid detergents, your washer has begun to fire it indiscriminately. Your machine isn't going to die, but anyone within 100 feet of it after the first spin should wear protective gear. My advice is to do exactly as the washer tells you, to use a low, calming tone of voice when addressing it and to hit it repeatedly with a 15-lb. sledgehammer when it nods off tonight. That'll be $75, please. |

timborow-- While I couldn't fix a washing machine given a genius robot AND a map, I am glad that my Online University English-minor skills have finally found an audience. Good luck with your repair; I'm sure someone else at this site can be of more practical assistance to you. In the meantime, keep your head down...

My DD Kenmore has been doing that for over a year now. It seems to come and go. |

Only after the first spin? What would be different after the first spin, than after the last spin? Early direct drive machines made a distinctive ringing clang noise when spin started and the clutch engaged. Or was it when spin stopped and the brake engaged? Whichever. I recall there was a field-fix that involved placing a rubber ring around the outside of clutch/brake drum, and the ring was added to the production line as well. Or something like that. |
