Washing mashine jumps around during the spin cycle

Try spin only cycle to get water out. Then restart the wash cycle.

Maybe the spin is touuching the body

Sounds like the belt either broke or jumped off the pulley. should be a simple fix from the back access.

Hi,

Did you remove the transport rods from the back of the unit? this will cause the unit to jump around a lot when it goes into the spin cycle. Also make sure the feet are all level and the unit doesn't rock from side to side.

mine is also making noise during the spin cycle. Just paid $95AUD for the repairman to tell me it needs news bearings and that will be a further $300!

The load is out of balance. Open the lid and redistribute the contents. When it's empty, grab the basket and give it a slight push sideways. It should move a little but, not free swing. If it doesn't have much resistance, the "snubber" has dried out and should be replaced. It is simply a piece of rubber in a metal bracket, that rests on the tub. When the basket spins,the snubber keeps it from jumping around.

My washing machine is Samsung Top loading Model WA80B3, the problem is that the water inlet valve is continuously working all the time during the washing cycle and it does not stop automatically, so I have to run additional drying cycle after washing cycle and after closing the water supply manually

I assume it is not balanced. Try putting sponges under the feet of the washer.

Check the vibration dampers and the plastic mounts for wear. They should be solid to the machine.
