Whirlpool Washer Repair – Munroe Falls, OH (CAE2745FQO)

A Whirlpool washer in Munroe Falls was reported full of water, but our diagnosis revealed a more complex issue. When we ran the manual diagnostic, the washer made a grinding noise during the spin cycle caused by loose transmission mounting bolts.

The Problem

The customer called because their washer was full of water. However, when we arrived for the service call, we didn’t find water sitting in the machine as initially reported.

Diagnosis

Running the manual diagnostic revealed the real problem — a grinding noise during the spin cycle. We found that the transmission mounting bolts had worked loose, causing the basket to rub on the tub in the spin cycle.

The Repair

• Work performed: Re-tightened transmission mounting bolts
• Result: Physically ran through complete cycle — 35 minutes for the cycle, looks good

Is It Worth Repairing?

Maintenance Tips for Whirlpool Washers
