After moving my ultimate care II washer it is horribly out of balance. I cannot correct with the levelers. the tub seems too loose and I cannot determine how to look at the tub stabilizers. Do you have to take off the top or back to gain access. It is a Whirlpool model LSQ9549LW1. Thanks for any suggestions... Norman

SOURCE: How to take the top off Ultimate Care II

2 screws behind control to loosen control panel. when out panel will hinge back and you should see 2 clips that will pop off with a screwdriver and harness for lid switch. whole cabinet will then come off iff you pull it forward

lid switch is bad chance are you can by pass this by removing the timer header and crossing the outer wire on the lid switch that it mounted closest to the lid not the power cord this will tell you if you need a switch

Lid switch. Push down on lid.

I have the same problem, and i think it is a problem with the agitator i pulled mine off, (remove softener insert below that is a seal easily removed and then a 7/16'' bolt) seems a 'clutch' mechanism between base and upper agitators is shot.
