Possible Causes
Worn rear tub bearings, Failed bearing seal allowing water ingress, Bent drum shaft (spider arm), Corroded bearing housing
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer before disassembly. Spinning components can cause injury.
- Check for play: With the door open, grasp the drum at the top and pull up and down. Excessive movement or clunking indicates bearing wear.
- Spin by hand: Rotate the drum manually. A rough, grinding feel or loud noise confirms bearing issues.
- Short-term mitigation: Reduce load sizes and avoid high-speed spins to limit further damage until repair.
- Full repair: Bearing replacement on most Comfee front-load washers requires removing the drum assembly, splitting the outer tub, and pressing out old bearings and seal. This is a complex repair usually best handled by a professional.
