Long hair can definitely cause tangling issues in newer washers. A laundry bag or hair filter might help reduce clogs and keep your washer running smoothly. Also, check the drum and filter regularly to prevent buildup. It’s a small extra step, but it saves a lot of hassle later! Research wasn’t my strong suit, so I went with UKWritings for my dissertation help. I used https://ukwritings.com/buy-dissertation and their buy dissertation option really delivered. The methodology chapter was precise and academically solid. I’ve recommended them to two of my classmates already.
*Update – it was a faulty washing machine. It not only leaked from the door (not hair related) but also beneath the machine. I didn’t bother to explore the issue – i just videoed it leaking in operation and they replaced the machine.The new one works fine but has developed a faint ticking/clicking noise when it rotates during wash (not during spin). It’s past it’s warranty now and other than the faint noise it’s working fine. I’m just hoping i haven’t bought another POETS day machine.
I may do a post if it gets worse but if it makes 5 years, I’ll be semi happy… (we ordered a tumble dryer and washing machine at the same time during this period. Tumble dryer had to be replaced twice and washing machine once. Unsure whether this was extremely bad luck or the machines are just poorly quality checked – even when trying to deliberately buy simpler versions, with less bells and whistles.)
I also faced a similar problem. happy that you found it.
A grinding noise accompanied by leaks could indicate a failing bearing or a loose drum component. Checking the drum’s stability manually and inspecting for wear on the spider arm might help. If the appliance is under warranty, a service request may be the best course of action.
A grinding noise and leaks usually indicate a loose drum or worn-out bearings. You might want to check the shock absorbers and spider arm as well. If the drum feels wobbly, it could be a sign that the bearings need replacement. Regular maintenance can help prevent these kinds of issues from getting worse.
First, gently turn the unit upside down and shake it to see if the pieces fall out. If that doesn’t work, using a vacuum with a hose might help suck them out. If neither method works, you may need to carefully remove the fan or access panel to retrieve the pieces. Be cautious not to cause further damage while doing this.
