Is This the Right Part?
Common Symptoms
- Banging or thumping noises during spin.
- Washer tub/drum appears off-balance, especially during spin.
- Excessive shaking or movement during operation.
Check Before Replacing
- With power disconnected, visually check the suspension rods, suspension balls, and upper bushings for a detached rod, obvious damage, or abnormal wear.
- Confirm the washer is level and all leveling feet are firmly supported on a solid floor; poor leveling or a weak floor can also cause vibration and walking.
- With the washer idle, gently press the tub downward and release it; repeated bouncing can indicate reduced suspension damping, but this check alone does not confirm the part is defective.
- If the model-specific technical sheet provides a calibration or diagnostic routine, run it after repair or when investigating persistent out-of-balance behavior.
