Tub bearings are frequently to blame when you hear your washing machine make noise while spinning.
These components aid in the smooth rotation of the washing tub.
Over time, exposure to detergent and the weight of heavy loads can deteriorate your washer tub’s bearings, causing it to spin less smoothly.
The noisy spinning of a Whirlpool washer can also be attributed to the driving pulley.
This component helps rotate the washer drum by rotating the driving belt with the motor or gearbox of the machine.
The drive belt, in conjunction with the driving pulley and the motor or gearbox, physically moves the washing tub.
It can tear, split, or break with time, causing your Whirlpool washer’s spin cycle to become noisy.
The motor coupling connects the motor to the gearbox to assist transfer power to the machine.
When this occurs, the driving forks in the motor and gearbox will slip and scrape against one another, causing the washer drum to make a rumbling sound.
As the clutch wears over time, it will create a loud noise while operating and spinning the drum.

When a Whirlpool washer makes some weird and loud noises, the chances are that something is broken within the machine. It can also be caused by something as small as too much load. Here are some top reasons why your washer has suddenly become so noisy and how you can fix it.
1. Problems with the drive pulley
2. Broken or worn-out drum bearings
3. The washer has been overloaded
4. The motor coupling is damaged.
You can instead stop the machine and take out excess load before starting it again.
You must purchase new Whirlpool couplers and replace the old ones to solve the issue.
Repair or replace the drive pulley.
Replace the drum bearings.
Reduce the load in the washer.
Examine the motor coupling.

When a Whirlpool washer makes some weird and loud noises, the chances are that something is broken within the machine. In most cases, you will need to disassemble the washer and find the root cause of the problem. It can also be caused by something as small as too much load. Here are some top reasons why your washer has suddenly become so noisy and how you can fix it.
1. Problems with the drive pulley
The drive pulley is susceptible to damage after extended periods. When this belt has been damaged, there will be a significant amount of noise during the wash cycle.
2. Broken or worn-out drum bearings
Failed drum bearings are a common issue for old Whirlpool washing machines.
3. The washer has been overloaded
An overloaded washer will produce problems like too much noise.
4. The motor coupling is damaged
A damaged coupler is perhaps the most common reason your Whirlpool washer makes so much noise.

Wenn der Waschtrockner sehr laut ist, muss das Tub-Bearing ersetzt werden. Dies ist eine sehr komplexe Reparatur und erfordert das Zerlegen des größten Teils des Waschgers. Der Hersteller empfiehlt, wenn möglich, das gesamte äußere Tub und das Bearing anstatt nur das Bearing im Tub zu ersetzen. Wenn das Bearing fehlerhaft ist, wird das Problem sehr schnell schlimmer und daher müssen entweder das Trommel- und Lager oder der Waschmaschine ersetzt werden. Wenn der Waschtrockner laut ist, kann das Antriebsritzel beschädigt oder abgenutzt sein. Das Antriebsritzel muss entfernt und genau untersucht werden. Wenn es beschädigt ist, muss es ersetzt werden. Wenn der Waschtrockner während des Spülgangs laut ist, kann die Kupplung versagt sein. Außerdem kann es sein, dass der Umlenkhebel-Kit versagt hat, oder der Motor-Kupplung, die den Motor mit dem Getriebe des Waschtrockners verbindet.

The humming/whirring noise is very common and part of normal operation.
The Humming/Whirling noises you would hear during the agitation/wash or spin portions of the cycle are caused by the motor.
You may hear an intermittent humming/whirling noise during the agitation/wash portion of the cycle as the motor turns the washer basket clockwise and counterclockwise.
You may also hear a humming/whirling noise during the spin portion of the cycle as the motor winds up to turn the washer basket at a higher speed.
The pump will run continuously throughout the drain cycle.
You may hear a humming sound from the pump, this may be more noticeable once the majority of the water has been drained.
These sounds are part of the normal washer operation.
You may hear an intermittent humming/whirling noise during the wash cycle as the motor turns the washer basket clockwise and counterclockwise.
This is normal.
The pump will run continuously throughout the drain cycle.
This produces a humming type noise, which is normal operation.

Wenn die Waschmaschine einen lauten Lärm macht, muss das Tub Bearing eventuell ersetzt werden. Dies ist eine sehr komplexe Reparatur und erfordert das Demontieren der meisten Teile der Waschmaschine. Der Hersteller empfiehlt, wenn möglich, den gesamten äußeren Tub und das Lager zu ersetzen, anstatt nur das Lager im Tub zu ersetzen. Wenn das Lager defekt ist, wird das Problem sehr schnell schlimmer, und entweder muss das Trommel- und Lager oder die Waschmaschine ersetzt werden.
Wenn die Waschmaschine einen lauten Lärm macht, kann auch das U-Joint-Kit defekt sein. Dies ist das primäre Antriebssystem für die Agitationsbewegung in dieser Waschmaschine. Obwohl dies keine sehr schwierige Reparatur für einen DIY-Experten mit einigem Erfahrung ist, ist der Teil teuer, sodass es sich möglicherweise lohnt, eine neue Waschmaschine zu kaufen.
Wenn die Waschmaschine einen lauten Lärm macht, kann auch die Lagerung des Antriebsmotors versucht sein. Waschmaschinenmotoren laufen normalerweise fast geräuschlos. Wenn der Motor ohne Riemen angeschlossen läuft und laut ist, muss er ersetzt werden.

There are several possible causes of noise in Whirlpool washing machines, including an unbalanced load, worn or damaged bearings, loose or broken components, and a clogged drain hose.
An unbalanced load can cause the machine to vibrate excessively, resulting in noise.
Worn or damaged bearings can create a grinding or squealing noise.
Loose or broken components, such as the motor or pump, can also cause noise.
A clogged drain hose can restrict water flow, causing the machine to work harder and make more noise.
