The washer bounces during spin cycle

The washer bounces when it is in spin cycle

  • rogercontact May 26, 2009

    My GE frontloader is on the 3rd floor and during the spin cycle, the thing bounces all over the place. I leveled the legs and everything and it still bounces. Any suggestions?

Front loaders don't like small loads. There's not enough clothing to settle around to balance it. Only do large loads.

Washer bounces when spin starts and seems nosie

If it is brand new are the transit bolts removed? try spin with nothing in it and see if it turns smoothly, if not there is something broken inside, id spins smoothly it will be a fault in the dampers.

During spin cycle, washing machine is bouncing around the room

Sounds like the drum, balance weights have come off, to me. This will cause those symptoms.

Rocks and bounces during spin cycles

You don't state what type and model of washer you have but following is the Whirlpool service manual for top load direct drive washers.

Check the sections on the base and suspension springs and pads.

If one or more of these is not connected, or the pads are damaged, the washer will vibrate during the spin mode.

Maytag neptune frot load will not reach full spin speed.

It will not spin while washing, it's more of a rocking back and forth. As far as the spin cycle. If it's not reaching full speed I bet you'll notice that it's not doing the full cycle because the load is bouncing around and cause the washer to shut off. take some of the clothes out and watch it spin the water out.

Loud noise during spin cycle

I bought the frigidaire affinity washer. It was quiet until it began the spin cycle, then it sounded like a jet taking off and began to bounce. Come to find out we set it up improperly. You must remove all shipping bolts on the back of the machine and make sure it is level. Ta Da!! it now runs perfectly quiet with little vibration.
