VerifiedHello Customer,
Thank you for asking your question on JustAnswer. The small is likely the belt of the washer. The noise could be the belt needing to be replaced or hopefully not the bearings in the tub of the washer. Another possibility is the pump bearings seizing. I will need the model number to provide you specific information. Do you have a more descriptive description of the whining?
