[COLOR=#000][FONT=arial, sans-serif]Hi, my Amana part# NTW4600VQ1 washer started making this buzzing sound and stopped washing, i called a technician, he told me the motor was finished. I changed the motor, it worked a few times until it started making the buzzing sound again and stopped washing. I noticed i see the coupler turn once and jamz, a friend of mine told me it’s the transmission assembly, so i looked up part # 3360629 ([/FONT][/COLOR][COLOR=#000][FONT=arial, sans-serif][COLOR=#416aad][COLOR=#416aad]Direct Drive Washer, [/COLOR][COLOR=#416aad]Transmission Geracase Clutch and Coupler)[/COLOR][/COLOR]. Any suggestions as to what might be my problem? My friend told me it might be the spring on the shaft and that i overload the washer, the motor turns but seems like the transmission doesn’t serve its purpose?

Thanks for all your suggestions!

Sounds like the transmission has gone bad. I would recommend to replace it together with the clutch assembly and the motor drive coupling. It will make the repair much more reliable.
