Every spin cycle, the machine walked itself a couple inches toward the wall. Two suspension rods had worn down unevenly, swapped as a pair and it hasn't budged since.

A washer that's given up spinning, filling, or draining rarely means a whole new machine. A single worn part is behind most calls like this, and we know exactly where to look first.
Match the symptom below to what's likely causing it, straight from years of Waterdown service calls.
You'll hear the tub agitating like normal, then nothing when it should shift into spin. A door or lid sensor often isn't reading the closed position correctly, and the machine simply won't proceed.
Water shows up on the floor partway through a cycle, usually near the front. On front-load models the rubber seal around the door tends to crack or split first, letting water past on every wash.
Press start and the tub just sits there, bone dry, minute after minute. A stuck inlet valve is the usual suspect, though a pinched supply line behind the unit causes the same symptom.
The whole cabinet rocks or walks a little with each spin, sometimes loud enough to hear from another room. Suspension components wear unevenly over the years and eventually stop damping the motion.
A repeating clunk shows up during spin that gets more noticeable week over week. This particular sound pattern is a strong sign the drum bearing is on its way out.
The display throws a fault code and the wash simply halts before finishing. A misreading water-level sensor is a frequent cause, tripping a safety stop the machine doesn't actually need.
Still Not Sure What's Wrong?
Rather than keep testing settings, call and get a technician's read on it today.

A thin line of water kept appearing near the door after every wash, small enough that we almost missed it. Turned out the door seal had a tear low down, replaced and it's stayed dry.

Talked us through the drain problem step by step while he worked, which we appreciated. Docking one star only because the pump needed ordering in.

Load day and the washer wouldn't take on a drop of water. Valve had seized shut, cleared it, and confirmed a full fill before he packed up.

That thud on every spin had been going on for two weeks before we finally called. Bearing inside the drum had worn out, new one in and it's silent again.

Cycle would stop cold halfway through, tub still full. A faulty sensor was the culprit, quick fix and every load's finished properly since.
