Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my washer make a clicking noise and won't spin or agitate?

A clicking noise coming from underneath the washer, especially when it's trying to change between wash and spin cycles, is the telltale sign of a failing shift actuator. The actuator is a small motor that physically shifts the transmission between agitate mode and spin mode. When the actuator's internal gears wear out or the motor weakens, it clicks repeatedly as it tries (and fails) to shift the transmission. The washer may get stuck in one mode — agitating but not spinning, or vice versa — or it may not do either. The clicking sound is the actuator motor running but the gears slipping. Replacing the shift actuator restores the washer's ability to properly shift between modes and complete its cycles.
