Possible Solutions

Rattling/Banging or Tapping Noises:

The drain or water inlet hoses may knock against the washer cabinet's rear. Secure the hoses using the beaded strap supplied with the washer (on some models) or a wire tie. The washer's vibration can be carried through to the hoses. Also, as water is pushed through the hoses, it can cause them to move. A knocking noise will be heard if the hoses have enough space to hit the cabinet.

Also, verify that no other items, such as everyday household items, are leaning against the washer. Brooms, dustpans, dryer racks, or hangers can make rattling noises if they are leaning against the washer, especially during high spin speeds. Always check the outside of your washer before using it for items that may cause noise.
