Unbalanced spinning on a brand new Sanyo front loadingwasher - quite violent! Tried adjusting leveling feet - no improvement. Different loads of washing - same problem

Most likely an unbalanced load especially when it improve during the spinning cycle. When it happens stop the cycle immediately and re position the garments evenly in the drum. If this eliminates the shaking it proves that the load was unbalanced if not the springs must be checked for the possibility that one might be unhooked. Check also if all the feet are making contact to the floor by grabbing the loader at the top and trying to rock it in any direction. If there is movement the feet need to be adjusted until thee is no movement possible at all.

CLOTHES UNBALANCED? OR COUNTER BALANCE SUPPORTS BROKEN, AND NEED REPLACMENT? WASHERS have many different weight balancers but sounds like u need to take body off and have look at the counter weights set up while running machine, just jumper the door switch to keep a closed line. and then agin sometimes its as simple as making sure ur washer is leveled on ur floor, check ur leg adjusters as they do get funny at times..

First, check to make sure you aren't loading the washer excessively. Many times it is an unbalanced load. Second, check to see if the washer is level. The feet are adjustable and allow you to level the washing machine. While checking the level, make sure the floor underneath is stable as well. Lastly, if these do not help, you may need to have the dampners checked (these are like shock absorbers and minimize the vibration of the drum).

it could be you have to heavy a load or you do not have the washer level. Most washers have screw out feet that can be adjusted to keep them from shaking so violently the best thing to do is set a lever in different positions and directions on the top and level it completely and see if that does not fix your problem.

Hi

If your washing machine shakes violently or if there's a loud thumping noise during the spin cycle, the load of clothes has probably gotten unbalanced. Open the lid, redistribute the clothes in the washer, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.

Is it a continuous thing? It could be that the clothes you have in there are unbalanced. Also, make sure the little feet at the bottom are leveled. Put a leveler on the top of the machine... you can also use a milk jug to try to gauge if its leveled.

try adjusting the feet on the bottom of the washer the floor may not be level to adjust the legs turn them with a wrench or if the lock nuts are not tight turn the legs clockwise as you look at the front of the machine till all four feet are sung on all 4 corners. This is the most common problem. hope this helps and thanks for using fix-ya

When the wild spinning is not caused by unbalanced/overloaded (wet) clothes in side, the first thing to check is that the washer is propery leveled, with all 4 feet on the ground.

If that is not the problem, on a front loading washer, the next most common problem is failed bearings that turn the whole inside basket.

Please report back what you find, OK?

have you removed the transit bolts? this is the usual cause of violent vibration. if not, do not use the machine till this is done as you can cause a lot of damage

what is the brand of the washer along with the model nunber
