Washer squeal during initial fill cycle only

Inglis (Whirlpool) Washer Model No. ITW4871FW1

My washing machine makes an ear piercing sequel only during the initial fill cycle. The noise also only happens when a full load of laundry is put in. Anything less than about a full load and the noise usually doesn't happen. The noise happens every time the agitator moves during the initial fill cycle until about half of the drum fills with water. At that point the squeak starts to taper off and eventually stops before the fill is done. The noise does not come back during the second or third fill cycle of the same load of laundry.

Hi @marco82079

Check if the drive belt is OK and not that it's rubbing or slipping.

Here's a link that has a video that shows how to replace the belt that may help.

If the problem is the belt, the part number shown in the link i.e. WPW10006384 is the one that is applicable to the one in your model washer. Search online forthe part number only, to find suppliers that suit you best.
