Samsung Washer Loud When Spinning? Here's How to Fix It

Does your Samsung washer keep making a loud noise during spin?

I often find that an uneven load or a loose object can cause a noise that starts suddenly. I would stop the cycle and check the load, drum, and washer feet before you book a repair.

Why Is My Samsung Washer Loud When Spinning?

Here's the short answer: a Samsung washer making loud noise during spin may have a trapped item, uneven load, loose feet, blocked pump, or worn moving part.

Before moving on, notice whether the Samsung washer is loud when spinning only. A loud banging noise points toward movement, while a grinding noise during spin or rumbling noise when spinning may need service.

Check When the Grinding Begins

For this check, a grinding noise during spin may actually begin when the Samsung washer pumps water out. If the manual shows a user accessible filter, clean it as directed and prepare for water to spill.

Remember, unplug the machine before opening any filter. Do not keep running a noisy pump, because a trapped object can damage it.

There is usually a few clues around the Samsung drain noise before the next test.

Spread Heavy Clothes Around the Drum

Besides this, a towel, blanket, or tangled sheet can gather on one side of the Samsung drum and cause a loud banging noise. Spread heavy pieces around and remove a few items if the tub is packed.

Next, try a short spin after rearranging the clothes. Stop again if the cabinet begins hitting the wall or the banging returns.

These wash load is also worth your attention while the washer is empty.

Check for Coins and Clips

Remember, pause the Samsung washer, unplug it, and check the drum, pockets, and reachable seal folds for coins, clips, or other small objects.

Besides this, turn the empty drum slowly by hand. Stop if it scrapes or jams, and do not reach below an agitator or open the cabinet.

The simple signs around this loose item is easy to miss as you check the simple causes.

Make Sure Every Foot Touches the Floor

Next, press gently on opposite top corners of the Samsung washer. If it rocks, adjust the feet until each one sits firmly on a hard floor, then tighten the locking nuts if fitted.

For this check, if movement is stronger than the sound, follow the checks for a Samsung washer that is shaking and moving.

The Samsung may gives you a useful clue around this leveling foot before you try a harder repair.

Ask a Technician to Inspect Moving Parts

As you work, a rumbling noise when spinning, a loose drum, or metal scraping can point to a bearing, suspension, or drive problem in the Samsung washer.

Before moving on, these repairs involve heavy moving parts. Stop using the machine if it leaks, scrapes, or shakes violently, and ask a technician to inspect it.
