I have a noise during the spin that sounds kind of like a whine/bearing issue. I have replaced the motor coulpler with no change. Any ideas what it could be? Everything works (all cycles).

What's the possibility this is a bearing or the gearbox? Either more prone to failing?

The first thing I would check is any foreign objects stuck between the inner and the outer tubs. Also check the holes in the inner tub for the same reason.

Thank you for you reply. I will check the tubs. However, this definitely sounds like a gear or bearing problem. You can hear it wind down after the spin. It's not a click as if something is in the tubs.

If it's not the tubs, how can I diagnose if it is a bearing or what?

There is no leaking or stains around the gearbox, etc.

The next you should check is a foreign objects inside the pump.
