Most common repairs needed to fix a Samsung washer
Suspension Rod Replacement
When the suspension rod in the washer is damaged, worn or broken, the wash tub will vibrate excessively, creating noises such as banging loudly against the sides of the washer cabinet. This is because the suspension rod will no longer have the ability to support or stabilize the tub. A damaged or worn suspension rod can lead to excessive damage to other components of the washer, so have a Sears Home Services technician inspect the washer and replace the rod if needed.
Motor Replacement
A broken washer motor will prevent the spin basket from rotating or agitating, and can also cause a variety of other issues that affect the washer's ability to function properly. Signs that the motor is wearing out include loud noises during operation, such as grinding or squealing sounds. The washer may also exhibit erratic spinning or agitation, with clothes not being properly rinsed or still soaking wet after the spin cycle. Additionally, a worn-out motor may lead to the washer not completing its cycles, stopping abruptly, or not starting at all. Burnt smells or overheating around the motor area can be indicative of internal problems. In some cases, visible damage to the motor itself may be apparent.
Spring Suspension Replacement
The suspension spring in a washer helps balance the weight of the wash tub. If the spring fails, the wash tub will become unbalanced and may vibrate excessively or bang loudly against the washer cabinet. This may also cause damage to other components of the washing machine. If you suspect the suspension spring in your washer has failed, schedule a service call with a Sears Home Services technician to inspect your washer and replace the spring if needed.

Diagnosing modern appliances without proper knowledge and training can be difficult.

Appliances, especially in the last 10 years, have become extremely advanced, and many models have electronic parts that are difficult to test. DIY repairs on the latest appliance models are becoming increasingly difficult.
