Possible Causes

Worn drive hub or splines, failed clutch assembly, broken motor coupler (on some designs)

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer.

Inspect drive hub/clutch:

  • Remove the agitator and inner basket (model dependent) to access the drive hub. Look for stripped splines or cracks; replace if worn.
  • On models with a clutch, remove the transmission cover and inspect clutch pads for wear or glazing. Replace the clutch assembly if slipping.

On older direct-drive designs, inspect the motor coupler between motor and transmission; replace if broken. These repairs require moderate mechanical skill.
