Yesterday I did a couple of regular loads of laundry in my faithful machine. Then I did a delicate load and heard a very pronounced clicking. It seemed to be coming from the motor! But, when I turned it to normal cycle, it was quiet as a mouse! I switched from slow speed to normal several times and it only made the clicking sound on the slow speed. It did seem to get louder under a load (start of the spin cycle). Then, after the machine sat idle for an hour or so, I tried it again and the noise was gone!! This machine has one of the newer "cube" motors in it. Any ideas? Thank you!!
