During diagnostic test washer agitates fine but makes noise during spin cycle. Also getting F7/E5 code. Is the clutch the likely issue?
For model number 11026132410
Hello Pat, thank you for reaching out. The F7-E5 error code is a shifter fault error code. The most common problem related to this error code is going to be that the shifter has failed. We would recommend replacing the Clutch, part number PS10064562. The clutch shifts the mode of the cycle from agitate to spin. As your unit has a direct drive motor with no belt, then this clutch operates as the mode shifter does. We hope this information helps!

I have a top load Maytag washer. I have an error code F7E4. Can this be related?
For model number MVW7232HW0
Hello Paul, thank you for your question. Error code F7E4 does mean a clutch failure. First unplug the washer and check the clutch for obstructions. Remove any obstructions. Replace the clutch if damaged. We hope this helps.

I get a very high-pitched squealing noise, like a belt slipping, when spin startup occurs. I believe this model is direct drive, so no belt. Error code is F3 E2 which doesn't seem to be related. Under heavier loads (1 blanket or comforter) the water often does not drain at all. Lighter loads will drain fully.
For model number WTW8040DW2
Hi Doug, thank you for contacting us. According to our research, the error code F3E2 indicates an issue with the washer temperature control. We would suggest resetting the washer by unplugging it from the outlet for at least 1 minute and then plugging it back in. Considering the symptoms you mentioned, the drain and noise issue might be caused by a faulty drain pump, part number PS11738156. We hope this helps, good luck with this repair!
Washer makes noise when agitating. Like a grinding and clunking noise what could that be
For model number MVWB835DW1
Hi Jeff, thank you for the question. Based on our understanding of the issue, we would suggest you make sure there are no foreign objects stuck in the washer drum or seal. If that is not causing the issue, then you may need to check the gearcase, part number PS12741641, as it is the most likely cause of this issue. If the gearcase is faulty or worn out, you may need to replace it. We hope this helps!
hi ,
there is times my washer machine leaves my clothes socked in water like it did not go through the spinning cycle .
does it mean the clutch is bad?
For model number mvwb765fw0
Hi Gerardo, thank you for getting in touch. Too much clothing can create an imbalance in the washer tub that reduces spin speeds, leaving clothes wet. Remove some items and redistribute others to balance the washer drum before running another drain and spin cycle. Make sure your drain hose is not kinked and the drain pump is not clogged. If this does not help, we recommend replacing the drain pump, part number PS11738156. The washer will not spin if it cannot drain properly or if the pump filter is clogged. Good luck with your repair!
I have an F7/E5 error code for my whirlpool washer. Is this the clutch or the shifter sensor that would be causing this?
For model number wtw8040dw4
Hello Rick, thank you for your inquiry. The F7E5 error code means that your shifter actuator is not shifting the transmission into spin or agitate properly. This is not something you can just reset, the shift actuator is part of the clutch, part number PS10064562. We would recommend replacing the clutch to fix this error. We hope this solves your problem!

When going into spin cycle the inner agitator spins but the tub does not. Is that a bad clutch part #19 on diagram?
For model number WTW8040DW0
Hello John, Thank you for the question. With the information provided, it sounds like the Washer Gear Case could be defective. The gear case drives the agitator and spins the basket in the washer. We hope this helps!
