Call sears 1-800-659-7026 for recall information. Might be the circuit board issue...

    had the same problem here. I had to remove unplug and replug the logic module (located inside the display panel - google it) and that removed the F1 code error. Then I noticed that the machines was always giving me the UL code with even nothing in the machine. I found that it had water accumulated in the top and bottom plastic rims of the drum. I drilled a few holes in the top and bottom plastic rims (inside and outside) and drained a lot of water. Then I sealed them with silicone. That took out the problem of unbalanced loads. That saved me probably more than $500 and only took me less than 1 hour to do.

    @jaimeabreu is your washer still working and not going off balance since you drilled holes n then sealed them back up?

    jaimeabreu could you elaborate a little with a picture or a youtube video of how you fixed the problem Id like to try it also... Called a bunch of friends who were glad to help but could not repeat your results without a better description of you process... please help. Not enough information is worse than none... glad your problem is fixed though.

How do you solve the balance problem in the kenmore elite oasis even with no clothes it in

Try running with no clothes? If still shows UL when empty running, your machine needs service. P.S. use HE detergent or else.

It is most likely the main control board. They have been having alot of problems with that machine flashing F1. They did a recall on the main control board on some of those washers. You might want to call the manufacturer to see if your machine is one of them.

If the washer is shaking and actually going out of balance and generating the UL error and the drum is empty the most likely cause of this problem is something under the spin basket.Clothes can end up under the spin basket and cause it to turn crocked and cause the out of balance. First I'd recommend removing the spin basket and check under it for any clothing or other obstruction that might cause the out of balance. Here is a diagram of how to Check.. Click Here

My Kenmore Elite Oasis washer unbalanced signal seems to be very sensitive. Only after several tries of readjusting the load to get it really even that the washer will spin without stopping. I made sure...

If the washer throws an UL error code with out any clothes in the washer then the issue must be concerned with the mechanical alignment inside the machine or a bad CCU.

The most common problem which can cause this is some sort of mechanical hinderance which does not allow the basket to move freely.

The suspension system which holds the basket in its place might be faulty and causing the unbalancing. In this model i think there are plastic ring at the bottom of the basket . Even if they are worn out or moved out of position it may cause the UL error code you are facing

Constantly off balance

I have a kenmore elite oasis top loading washer about 3 years old. I took it apart and checked the springs and the rods and the plastic ends that hold the rods in place and all of them look fine. I run an empty load in the washer and it still goes unbalanced on the spin cycle. My water bill has tripled due to the fact that every load takes 3 to 4 washings. I need help please!
