I have a Kenmore Elite washer and when it goes in the last spin and rinse cycle it starts bouncing around and shows a UL code. After rearranging the clothes and even removing most of them it still does the same thing and we have to remove the clothes wet because it will not spin out without showing the UL code and shut off.

Most likely the suspension rods and bushings are worn and need replacing

Youshould make sure that the washer is on a concrete floor andmake sure it is level.
Do not put the washeron a wooden floor that moves when you jump up and down. Any ecentric loads will cause the washing machine tovibrate more.

If it goes through the complete cycle o.k. except for the slow spin then the motor itself needs to be checked.

SOURCE: My Kenmore Elite washer spins to slow cauisng the

If this is occurring mostly on heavier loads your clutch may be slipping. If you take a flathead screwdriver and push down the lid switch so the washer will spin with the lid up, grab the inside of the drum. If you can easily stop the drum its most likely a bad clutch. If you tip the washer back and see oil underneath then its probably your transmission leaking oil onto the the clutch causing it to slip (in which case you need transmission and clutch assy). If you see oil I would probably not bother calling a tech it would be a pretty expensive repair.
IF the problem is with the clutch only it may be worth repairing but to replace the clutch you will have to remove the pump, motor, transmission, and the clutch mounts on top. The other less common possibility could be a bad drive block under the inner tub. hope this helps. _MJ_

UL bravo error code

Unbalanced load? Don't over stuff the washer. The load sensing moves the drum back and forth at the start. If it can't balance the load it will err.

I have an kenmore elite =sm9711174. the spin cycle does not always start. i have to manually spin a couple times then it starts, but now does not spin fast. only slow. do i need a new belt?

this washer does not have a belt. The motor is a direct drive. it should give you a error code at time if it is unable to spin. some codes are F-51, F-dl, and UL. from the sounds of it the main board may need to be replaced part#W10189966.

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

We have a kenmore elite he5t front load washer, that i just finished replacing the bellow on. after reassembling the front panels, i tried to start the washer to run a cleaning cycle, but all that happens...

Thats usually a sign that the door is still open. Make sure that when you put the bellows on the ring that goes around it was put on properly as well that way the door is actually fully closing engaging the door swithch and letting the machine know its ok to run.

Im getting a uL message on my spin cycle and I dont know why.

The "uL" message stands for "unbalanced load." Open the lid to the washer and redistribute the load if the "uL" display appears on the appliance.Redistributing the load should correct any imbalances in the washer and allow the washer to turn freely. Close the lid and press "Start" to restart the washer.

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!
