Washing machine balance is off since we moved it.

The machine uses automatic load sensors to balance the load and when you put something in the machine that is big, like a comforter, it knows that it cannot balance that item. So with a front loader it wont spin at high speed because it would be off balance and either damage the machine or the machine would "walk" because of the off balance motion.

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.

These new front load machines are much heavier and spin much faster than the top load machines. If you have old wood floors in your home or you live in a mobile home, the machine may tend to "walk" or vibrate on the floor. You can try putting something under the machine to help prevent it from walking as it is spinning.

go to a place like walmart in the fabric section, they will have some stuff thats made to put under rugs to keep them from sliding, i call it rubber lace. cut some and put it under the feet.

Could be broken suspesion leg or spring securing the drum

Don't know if you've done it, but put a level on the machine itself and make sure it is level. Adjust it front, back and side to side. This may cure your "walking problem".

remove the 2 screws on each side unplug lid switch plug remove the two brackets holding case on.

Try placing it on a rubber mat or carpet that has a rubber backing. The floor may be too smooth and allows it to walk.
