EasyStep-by-step troubleshooting guide — 5 steps, Washer, Easy difficulty.

⚠️ Common Causes

Single heavy item (comforter, rug), suspension springs worn, shock absorbers failed, load too small

🔧 Parts to Check

🔧 Troubleshooting Steps

  1. Redistribute load — add a few more items to balance a small load, or spread items evenly
    ✓ Expected: Load evenly distributed
  2. For comforters/rugs: add 2-3 towels to help balance during spin
    ✓ Expected: Added balance items
  3. Check washer is level — adjust feet. An unlevel washer can't balance loads
    ✓ Expected: Washer level
  4. Check suspension springs — if worn or broken, tub won't center during spin
    ✓ Expected: Springs intact
  5. For front-load: check shock absorbers — press down on washer, should not bounce more than once
    ✓ Expected: Minimal bounce
