Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: unplug the washer. Be aware that bearing replacement is a major repair.
Step-by-step checks:
- Spin drum by hand: with the machine off, rotate the drum. A rough, grinding feel or loud rumble indicates bearing wear.
- Check for play: try lifting the drum up and down at the front. Excessive movement suggests failed bearings or a broken spider bracket.
Repair note: on many Beko models, bearings are integrated into the outer tub. Replacement often requires removing the entire tub assembly and either pressing in new bearings and seals or replacing the complete tub. This is typically a complex repair best performed by a professional.
