Banging noises during spin

Our Whirlpool washing machine has started making metallic banging noises when starting its spin cycles. The noises stop once the spin reaches speed. When I inspect the drum, there is no metal stuck in the drum, and it spins normally when spun by hand, and without any unusual rocking or banging. I dont know if this points to the bearings or a drive belt, etc, being at fault?

I uploaded a video to Youtube (I uploaded a video of this to Youtube (https://youtu.be/F0QTH-LSHfI).)

@Bruce Rogers The drain hose and fill hoses behind the machine will move back n forth against the washer.

Open the door and see if there basket moves up and down a little. If the baskets wiggles or feels loose, the center rear bearing could be worn. Or the spider gear that secures the baske to drive shaft could be crack. Either will make a knocking noise during spin.

It could be the wire harness to the door lock. You can remove the three 1/4” screws that secure the top. Located at the rear of washer top. Once remove push the Ld back and up to remove. With it off you can watch what’s going on inside while it’s running. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING UNDER THE LID WHILE ITS PLUGGED IN.

Interesting noise. Reminds me of a card hitting bicycles spokes. Here are the usual fixes but yours sounds like a possible frayed belt slapping.

Cause 1

Tub Bearing

The tub bearing is mounted in the middle of the outer tub. The tub bearing helps to keep the inner tub spinning smoothly. Replacing the tub bearing is a very involved repair and will require disassembling most of the washer. If the tub bearing is defective, we recommend replacing both the outer tub and bearing as an assembly if the manufacturer offers the components together.

Cause 2

Tub Seal and Bearing Kit

The tub bearing is mounted in the middle of the outer tub. The tub bearing helps to keep the inner tub spinning smoothly. If the washer is noisy during the spin cycle or is leaking from the bottom of the tub near the transmission, the tub seal and bearing are likely defective. Replacing the tub bearing is a very involved repair and will require disassembling most of the washer. If the tub bearing is defective, we recommend replacing the outer tub and bearing at the same time.

Cause 3

Rear Drum with Bearing

The rear drum has a bearing or bearings in it to keep the inner tub spinning smoothly. If the tub bearing system is defective the washer can become very noisy. On some machines bearings are sold separately from the rear drum, however we recommend replacing both the outer drum and bearing as an assembly if the manufacturer offers the components together because removing and pressing in the new bearing can be exceptionally difficult. Be aware that replacing the outer tub and bearing is also not easy and can be very costly.
