Model AAV-1 / Part #35-6940
My wash machine has begun making a loud rattling/clicking noise when the machine goes onto rinse and spinning cycle and yesterday it stopped during the rinse cycle. There was a slight burning smell??? The water was still in the machine so I reset it and it did nothing.
I waited a few hours and plugged the machine back in and set it on the spin cycle to get the water out the machine. It worked but was still making this rattling/clanking/clicking noise.
What do I need to repair it, or has it run it's course???
Many Thanks,
Paul.

Paul,
Sounds like the problem is a bad pump. The model number you posted is incomplete or incorrect. You should look for it on the washer (most likely under the lid) and not in the manual.

Yes, the pump is bad. No doubt about it.
