Understanding normal washer sounds

During drain

The rate that water is drained from your
washer depends on your installation. If water

is drained quickly from the washer, you may
hear air being pulled through the pump. This
happens during the end of draining.

Your new washer may make sounds that
your old one didn’t. Because the sounds
are unfamiliar, you may be concerned about
them. Don’t be; most of them are normal.

The following describes some of the sounds

you may hear and what causes them.

During washing

When you select a small load size setting for
a small wash load, your washer has a lower
water level. With this lower water level, you

may hear a clicking sound from the upper
portion of the agitator.

After drain and before spin

When the cycle changes from draining to
spinning, you may hear gears engaging.
