HOOVER AQUARIUS WF546

[itsonlyme]

HI ALL, I JUST NEED SOME ADVICE.
MY WASHER WORKS FINE DOES ALL ITS CYCLES ETC BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THE LAST SPIN IT SOUNDS LIKE A JET ENGINE READY TO TAKE OFF, NO KNOCKING JUST A REALLY LOUD SPIN THAT IT DEAFENS YOU IF YOU ARE SAT IN THE KITCHEN, DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT IT COULD BE

Hotpoint aquarius WF546

Well that range is commonly known for bearings going wrong etc. Which seems to be the problem here.

All the best

Hoover Aquarius... too true!

I call my Hoover like that... Aquarius... when it oddly adds too much water to the rinse cycle... but I understand you're talking about a real Hotpoint... well drum bearing failure and that

If you're up for it (and you model hasn't got a sealed tub) you can change the bearings yourself... many videos on YouTube show how to do this... I included a link below as an example.

Good luck
