The OL code can also indicate a problem with the washer suspension rods, the motor that spins the tub or the bearing and shaft that connect the motor to the tub. It can even happen when there is a problem with the fill system. You can find the parts diagram for the Kenmore 110.27092601 here:

Have you run the washer with it empty? If this code returns, then the laundry didn't shift to cause an uneven load that was mistaken for the overload. Some things to check:
1) take off the center cap on the wash plate, then remove the bolt and nut. Remove anything that is under the wash plate.
2) Try to lift up the tub by the spin basket. It should move 1/2" to 3/4" without hanging up.
3) Inspect the stator and rotor for cracks. Look at the RPS sensor connection, input shaft and windings for corrosion. Replace any defective parts.
I hope this helps.
