Roper washer ras7133kq0 walks all over when spinning. it is level...how do i get it apart and what do i do to fix it.

Check the feet, they must all be firmly planted with equal weight and level left to right and front to back.

If your Roper washer shakes excessively during the spin cycle, this can be caused by your machine sitting on an uneven surface, worn-out rollers, or damaged feet. To solve this problem, you will need to level the floor where your washer is sitting or replace its wheels if there are any worn-out parts.

Why Does My Roper Washer Shake And How To Fix?

top loader
the problem indicates that the air dampeners on the ends of the support rods for the tub have failed
with them broken any small out of balance is escalated to the machine walking around the floor

Use this video to help you replace the lid switch that is broken.

Hi, Well it sounds like either one of the tension springs that hold the outer clear tub to the frame down below came off or broke, or that the basket or gearbox shaft is warped. One other thing to try is the back feet on those washers are spring loaded to take out some of the vibration, if those feet arent level it will make the washer shake. it is easy to reset those so they are level. Stand infront of the washer and grab the back of the unit and pull it towards you so that you raise the rear legs, then simply set it back down. To check the spring you will have to take the outer shell off and look at the springs that are at the bottom of the tub assembly holding the tub down on the frame. Good luck and I hope I was some help.

Here is a video that will walk you thru testing and replacing a lid switch. It should be a similar model.

This is usually caused by the coupler very inexpensive and easy to fix. This video will walk you thru the process. Scroll down to the video on taking apart a whirlpool stlye washer it goes thru replacing the coupler properly. Your washer will come apart the same as in the video.

does this happen even if the load on the machine is reduced? i mean less clothes............... usually there is a stabilizing liquid in the upper part of the drum which balances the drum in case of a tilt now this doesn't leak as it is sealed

Engage your lid switch so that washer will spin in spin cycle and watch it spin. At end of cycle when washer shuts down the tub should come to a fairly sudden stop if it doesn't then you need to have the brake worked on. If it does post your model number and i'll advise further.

Dear customer

Please perform the following checks

This may be a spin problem or a drain problem
Drain:

• Make sure the drain line is clear
• Check the drain hose for a partial blockage
• Inspect the water pump

Spin:

• Test the lid switch
• Test the timer control
• Test the centrifugal switch
• Test the water level switch
• Inspect the motor coupler
• Inspect the drive belt (belt drive only)
• Inspect under the washer for soot (clutch)
• Test the motor
• Inspect the pulley
• Test the transmission

Please rate this,Thank u

Does it happen all the time, with no connection to laundry quantity? In case of a positive answer, it sound like a shock absorber issue. Could be that it's moved from its place or become malfunction and should be replaced. Good luck
