Kenmore Washer Repair – North Canton, OH (110.20022013)

A North Canton homeowner called about their Kenmore washer making excessive clicking noises that wouldn’t stop. What we found was a loose pulley on the transmission — a simple fix that restored normal operation.

The Problem

The customer reported that their washer makes a click noise at the beginning of the cycle to adjust the load, which is normal. What it was doing now was not stopping clicking and being loud. If set on delicates with a small load, it only clicked a couple times. They also found a nut in the bottom of the washer after a load.

Diagnosis

During our inspection, we discovered the pulley was loose on the bottom of the washer transmission. This loose connection was causing the continuous loud clicking throughout the cycle instead of the brief normal adjustment clicks.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: None required
• Work performed: Tightened the loose pulley on the transmission
• Result: The washer is operating correctly

Is It Worth Repairing?

This Kenmore 110 series washer is a reliable workhorse when properly maintained. Since this repair required no parts and only minor adjustment work, it was definitely worth fixing. These units can provide many more years of service with basic maintenance and occasional repairs like this one.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Washers

• Check for loose items like coins or small tools before starting loads — they can damage internal components
• Balance loads properly to prevent excessive strain on the transmission and drive components
• Listen for changes in normal operating sounds, as they often indicate developing mechanical issues
