What Makes Whirlpool Washer Repairs Different
Some models sense load size before filling, tumbling or spinning the drum briefly, and then set the water volume to match, so a partly filled tub is often normal. Source: Whirlpool - Why won't my washing machine fill with water
What Whirlpool Says to Check First
- Washer shaking or walking. Remove the shipping bolts, adjust the feet until all four sit firmly on the floor, and spread heavy and light items evenly in the drum. Source: Whirlpool - Washer is Vibrating, Walking or Moving
- Washer not spinning. Redistribute an unbalanced or overloaded load, cut back on detergent to avoid excess suds, and remember delicate cycles spin slowly. Source: Whirlpool - Front Load Washer is not Draining, not Spinning, or Leaving Wet Loads
