Disconnect power before performing any maintenance. Incorrect wiring or improper handling of electrical components can result in electric shock or fire. Refer to the manufacturer's service manual for detailed instructions. Avoid using generic replacement parts, which can compromise safety and performance. Ensure proper grounding to prevent electrical hazards. Do not bypass any safety interlocks.
Excessive vibration noted during all wash cycles, particularly during the spin cycle. Audible rattling and unit displacement observed. Diagnostic LEDs do not indicate any specific error codes. App logs show no connectivity issues or fault warnings. Vibration persists even with a balanced load.
Perform a hard reset by holding the 'Start/Cancel' button for 5 seconds. This can sometimes resolve minor software glitches that may contribute to motor control issues and perceived vibration. Check drain hose routing; improper routing can cause resonance against cabinet walls.
