How do I diagnose and potentially fix a washer that makes a clanging noise at the start of the spin cycle, runs for 5 seconds, and then locks up? Specifically, how do I remove the belt from the motor to check if the problem is with the brake assembly or transmission?

I replaced the thermostat but the issue persists. The dryer cycles on and off, and after running for about 10 minutes, it gets cold. What could be the problem and how can I diagnose it?

I have a Whirlpool Gold GH4184XSS-O over-the-range 1000W microwave with the following issues: lights and humming function, but no turntable movement; power cord sparked at the outlet; microwave nonfunctional; replaced 20A fuse twice; noticed a broken peg holding one of the interlock switches, replaced it and had all three switches checked; followed wiring diagram, replaced interlock, replaced fuse, reconnected board; programmed clock, tested lights, fan, etc., all functioned normally; placed a cup of water in the unit for a test and turned it on for one minute, turntable worked fine but a loud, unusual noise came from the unit; discontinued the test after 20 seconds; water was still cold, but non-cooking functions still worked properly. What could be causing the loud noise and how should I proceed?

I have a top loader Magtag washer, Bravo series. It starts washing but then stops agitating, starts making a grinding sound, and the center stops agitating. When set on spin cycle, it moves to the right and left without spinning fully, and it grinds. The bottom looks like it's jumping off the track. I also get an F51 code. What could be the issue and how can it be fixed?

My Samsung refrigerator (Model RS2630SH/XAA) shut down and only the lights inside are on. Nothing responds from the front control panel. Any ideas?
