Possible Causes

Load not evenly distributed, too few items in drum, worn suspension springs or shocks, off-level washer installation

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Wait for the drum to stop before adjusting the load.

Step-by-step:

  • Balance load: Open the door/lid and rearrange items evenly. Add a few extra items if washing a single heavy piece like a bath mat.
  • Check level: Use a level on the washer top and adjust feet until stable.
  • Inspect suspension: If UE occurs on most loads, inspect and replace worn shocks or springs.
