Customer Questions and Answers for Washer Damper Assembly by Samsung

The Washer Damper Assembly is an OEM replacement part for Samsung washing machines. This component is crucial for reducing vibrations and absorbing shock during wash and spin cycles, ensuring the washer operates smoothly and quietly. By stabilizing the drum, it helps prevent excessive movement that could damage other parts of the washer.

Causes of a bad damper assembly include wear from heavy or unbalanced loads, prolonged use, or damage due to impact. Over time, the dampers may lose their effectiveness, leading to increased vibrations and noise.

Symptoms of a bad washer damper assembly include:

• Excessive shaking or vibrating during operation
• Loud banging or thumping noises
• Washer moving or "walking" across the floor
• Uneven or incomplete spin cycles

This OEM Samsung part is also compatible with select Kenmore and other washer models.
