What To Do When Samsung Washing Machine keeps going out of balance

Your Samsung washer might start out out of balance during the spin cycle. It is a Samsung top problem. Today's washers have out of balance protection installed to protect a washer from damaging itself during the spin cycle. Some Samsung washers add more water during the spin cycle to attempt to correct the imbalance of a small load. To solve the problem of extra water, redistribute the clothes to better balance the washer. If the problem happens during large loads, it is usually an electronic control board issue. This can be an expensive repair and requires a technician. You can check whether the latch is securely fixed, laundry or other items are not caught in the door, and the door is closed and secured correctly. Also, try removing shipping materials if they are present. Level the machine. Check for overloading. Look for laundry caught below the tub. Samsung appliances are built with materials and with designs that give them an accelerated failure rate, as opposed to other manufacturers that build similar devices and machines. The average lifespan of a Samsung appliance is 5-10 years. If you're 10 years in on a Samsung appliance without a major repair, you're on borrowed time. We recommend a regular maintenance visit every six months to keep all the appliances in working order.
