LG Washer Repair – North Canton, OH (WM2277HW)

We received a service call for a loud LG washer on Pine Creek St NW in North Canton, OH. The customer reported that the spin cycle was loud and smelled of burning rubber. Our diagnosis revealed a broken drum support with parts no longer available.

The Problem

The customer contacted us about their LG washer experiencing a spin cycle that was loud and smelled of burning rubber. These symptoms typically indicate serious mechanical failure within the drum assembly.

Diagnosis

Upon inspection, we found the drum support was broken. This critical component failure was causing the loud operation and burning rubber smell as other parts were being damaged by the misaligned drum.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: None — parts not available
• Work performed: Diagnostic evaluation
• Result: Determined not economical to repair, customer to replace unit

Is It Worth Repairing?

For this LG WM2277HW washer, the broken drum support combined with parts unavailability makes replacement the only viable option. When critical structural components fail on older units and replacement parts are discontinued, investing in a new washer is the practical choice.

Maintenance Tips for LG Washers

• Balance loads evenly to reduce stress on drum supports and suspension components
• Use HE detergent only to prevent excess suds that can damage LG’s direct drive system
• Run monthly cleaning cycles with LG’s recommended tub clean setting to maintain optimal performance
