Tim J for Model Number WF42H5200AF/A2 Samsung from load balance problem, entire unit shakes, wobbles and walks on the start of any spin cycle (never an error code) between 200-400 rpm. Unit tries to rebalance clothes to no avail, if it manages to get up to speed, still shakes way more than it should. I have replaced spider arm (old one looked fine), both bearings & seal (was leaking a bit), all 4 dampers (the rear was a bit weak), both suspension springs (old were fine). No cracks were seen in the outer tub at bearing locations. The basket rotates square inside the tub. The machine was perfectly tight and level, changed location in the room to verify floor, ever placed on rubber pucks! The only thing not replaced is the balance ring, which is full to slightly above 3 & 9 o’clock positions, and balls move around, usually in groups. Do these things wear out? Can they be bad even if filled with a solution? I am about ready to give up on this thing….please help!!
Answer Tim, While it is possible for the balance ring to be bad and sounds like the only thing that would be left aside from the counterweights being damaged. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Tuesday, December 7, 2021
