Is the sound new or linked to the spin cycle?
A new rattle can be caused by an unbalanced load, trapped object, loose panel or worn suspension. A deep rumble during spin may point to bearings or drum support, while clicking can indicate a pump or foreign object.
How a professional repair is assessed
A professional inspection normally follows the water path from the inlet and drum to the drain hose and pump. The technician can also check door locking, motor load, suspension and control signals, then run a short test cycle so the original symptom is not replaced by a new one.
Safe checks you can make before booking
Before the visit, remove clothes if it is safe, note any error code, and take a quick photo of standing water or the leak location. Keep the appliance accessible and avoid repeated cycles when there is a burning smell, heavy leaking or unusual drum impact. For a useful handover, write down when the symptom happens, the selected cycle or setting, the brand/model if available and any displayed code. Do not remove covers or touch internal components.
When should you stop using the appliance?
Stop the cycle if the drum is striking the cabinet and book an inspection rather than continuing to run the appliance. Water and electricity should be treated carefully. Do not remove electrical panels or reach into a moving drum.
