I am almost sure that it may be the drive coupler that may need replacing it also makes a kind of grinding sound that i have never heard before, Can you tell me how to get to the area where the problem is, I mean just how do you take the top of the washer off because i am having some problems taking the top off. I might be wrong in assuming that the problem is in the drive coupler so if you can please advise me as to where to look.:mad:
