Amana NTW4519JW 3.8 cu ft HE Top Load Washer with Deep Water Wash Loud Noise Error Fix: Loud Banging, Grinding, or Thumping Noise

The washer makes loud banging, grinding, or thumping noises during operation. Banging during spin usually indicates worn suspension rods — these dampen tub movement and allow excessive travel when worn. A grinding noise during agitation suggests worn transmission bearings or gears — metal shavings in the wash water confirms this and makes the washer uneconomical to repair. Rhythmic thumping may indicate a damaged drive coupling. Clicking sounds during spin may be the shift actuator. Inspect the suspension rods first as they are the most common and least expensive repair.
