Check the mounting bolts.

who's there?

I agree with David, mounting bolts. One person here sometime ago found the cabinet bolts rusted away and not holding things together. A belt that is bad would make more of a thumping noise. You may want to check the inner tub, just reach in and see if there is any up/down play. If it there is, then check the bolt on the back drum. Maybe bearings.

I did check mounting bolts and inner tub.. they are fine and no ups and down movement.. I think Motor is hitting tup, when it starts spin mode ...if that is the case how can i prevent it.. tia
