IF PLASTIC SPLINE DOESN'T FIX GROWLING NOISE, MY FIX WAS THE POSITION SENSOR. I'VE HAD A COUPLE PEOPLE TELL ME THAT IF POSITION SENSOR IS BAD, MACHINE WON'T RUN. WRONG. IT GROWLS LOL
Man - after a bunch of searches, found this video - thank God. It's the only video I found that diagnoses this problem - I was about to change the bearings unnecessarily. (Even considered getting another machine $$$!) I removed the back cover, ran a test, and watched. Sure enough, shaft and rotor not turning at the same speed - rotor would stop and shaft would continue turning - stripped rotor! (Like Patdonte, mine is an 11-year old LG front load. (WM 2301 HR) Gonna definitely joint the channel & interestingly, backyard chickens is on my future list, so I'll be going there in the future as well! After joining, gonna copy the link, and order the part (along with your tester and a set of shocks. (Mine are gettin' pretty weak and my tester is bad) This channel is an awesome find - thanks Scott!
Thanks to your video, I changed the rotor on my eleven year old LG washer. I ordered the part from Amazon $110.00 and it was simple to replace. Thanks for your helpful instructions 😊.
I am VERY impressed with this video! I subscribed and I thank you for being VERY methodical and precise. I have owned the LG WM2050CW since June of 2010 and its a great machine and I DID NOT have this particular problem!! I just replaced the Door gasket (bellow) and 'renewed' the corroded door hinge caused by the common leak above where the soap dispenser box 'plugs/connects' into the front panel. I sealed this with silicone caulking for the second time within 5 years!
My machine roars like a helicoper is about to land. RPM'S are high on spin cycle, just loud.. like bearings.. any advise for checks, I did open up the top and back panel.
Thanks man, I'll def check the spline. Gotta comment though how you say the word "on", not sure what part of the country you're from, but that's really something. Great video.
So if I don't do that fix, the washer will keep working? It sounds like the grinding will destroy the washer, but from your video it seems the grinding is "cosmetic" (in an auditory way).
@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance - Thanks. What confuses me is that from this video it seems the grinding is not a functional problem - just unpleasant to hear - not leading to breakdown. Did I miss something? (The dryer is stacked on top of the washer and they are in a space half an inch wider than they are, and half an inch taller than they are, so getting out the washer will be terribly difficult, so I don't want to do it if it's not functionally important.)
There are two different size blinds for the LG washing machines. You can use your model number and go to searspartsdirect.com to find the correct part for your Washer.
I wish I could hear the sound your machine was making before replacing the spline. Mine is making a rubbing type noise. Drum isn't loose and it still washes. I need to email someone with a video of what mine does. I can't find anything on line that represents what my washer is doing.
@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance Could I send you a video of mine too? It's making a loud noise that I wouldn't describe as growling but is very loud. I'm hoping it is the same issue and not the bearings. Having a hard time determining which one it is.
They last 15 years easily. Just now to the point mine failed on 2009 model. It's an intentional design yes but to save the cost of the higher shaft and drum assembly.

Thanks Jaxon👍
Do you happen to have a video or sound bite of what the growl sounds like?
That would’ve helped

Thanks so much,
I think you’ll enjoy raising chickens 🐔😊
But without a clip of sound how can we know?

Lg are good at washing and rinsing, but shite at balancing clothes, down to piss poor shock absorbers

Grew up in California 😂
Thanks for this informative video... It really helped 😊

Just curious if plastic part failed then why you ordered complete rotor assembly?
I think it’s a stronger material 👍
Great directions
Thanks so much 👍
Still grinding noise after replacing spline on rotor.
That’s a broken spider bracket or a worn out bearing.
Check the coin catcher first. Same symptoms but it just was t draining fast enough. Full of dog hair. Worked once emptied.
Excellent suggestion,
Thank you 😊
Our machine has a high pitched whine. Is this also due to the rotor splines?
Hi Penny,
Can you send me a video of that to:

It should continue to work for a few months, but it’s time to save up for a new washer 👍
You can try replacing the rotor plastic splines like in the video 👍

Are all the splines the same on every LG washer?

does this work for top loading machine’s?

Can you just replace the plastic piece? Or cement the old rotor into place?
They do sell just the plastic center piece at Amazon.

@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance - what's the reason you would spend more to buy the metal part too, instead of just the plastic center piece?
why cant lg use metal instead of plastic, it would make the washer last longer
You speak the truth 👍😊
The profits are in repairs and parts
that's why they don't.
They last 15 years easily. Just now to the point mine failed on 2009 model. It's an intentional design yes but to save the cost of the higher shaft and drum assembly.
The washer is very angry that’s why it’s growling
You are so right😂😂😂
seen you underpants or knickers with massive skidmarksin them, that why its Growling
