Loud Kenmore Washing Machine

kennykenny · 05-20-2010, 08:09 PM

I have a Kenmore washing machine, #417.42052100 front loader in which the drum has begun to not spin smoothly when turning by hand and when it now spins due a wash cycle, it is very loud. Where it used to be pretty quiet.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what the possible problem might be what I can maybe do to fix it?

Bad drum bearings?

An exploded view and parts list would help pinpoint where to look.

B4 you pick up a wrench I'd price out the cost of the parts you are likely to need.
It may not be worth fixing 2 U.
