What can cause what i have described. The door doesn t lock either. My kenmore coin washer model 27182 wouldn t start so i changed the door switch. There is the striker plate on the door itself which can crack or get jammed.

Simply remove two screws at the base of the washer to remove the cover plate and find the pump. If i push on the door or hold it up slightly it might stop briefly but starts up again. For all in the future that read about a buzzing and water won t pump out of your frigidaire washer.

Spin works now but the door lock area makes a loud buzzing sound. Now when i press the machine start button a loud buzzer sound is made and the unit won t start. Door closes and no leaks but the noise is quite annoying. There is the door latch which can fracture or get jammed.

I took it back apart and checked everything and put back together tightly. The lock on the washer has three parts any of which can malfunction. The frigidaire affinity is a well made clothes washer but even it can break over time.
