John December 23, 2011 for Model Number rtw4440v my washer is level and when it go on spin it will jump all over the place could the agitator bolt be loose.
1 Answer John, A loose agitator bolt would not be the issue, it could be loose, but shouldn't cause a washer to shake and vibrate. Are you sure the washer is level and the floor under the washer is solid, and the feet are all "locked" in place. You will need to remove the washer cabinet and check all the centerring springs 285901, slide pads 285219 and frame and plate for damage or wear and tear. Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
