Laundry appliance noise and its repair

That grinding noise from your washing machine during the spin cycle is probably a worn-out drum bearing, while a high-pitched squeal might mean the drive belt is slipping. I had a similar issue last month; a simple belt replacement cost about $20 and took 20 minutes with a screwdriver and a YouTube video. For more complex sounds like a thumping or scraping, it's often the pump or a foreign object in the drain line. Don't ignore it—early repair saves a lot more than a new machine.
