    I laughed at the hateful Samsung beginning, because that is exactly how I felt about this washer. I watched it twice, ordered the parts, and followed it again as I undertook the repairs. In less than an hour, this 60 year old grandmother had everything fixed, and a load of laundry was spinning properly for maybe the first time ever! I also noticed that the water level in the machine seemed to be a bit higher, and the clothes were moving around like they should, whereas before, it never seemed to have enough water in the machine during the wash cycle. I can't thank you enough. Oh, and your helper is utterly adorable!!

    **Pro tip**
    If you get the sticky stuff on your hands, try to get the majority off and then pour some oil in polyurethane gloves and massage. You'll be sticky free with soft hands.
    I successfully fixed the bane of my existence for the second time today. Last time was in July of 2023. My washer is 3.5 years old. I bought the recommended springs, which were different from my last replacement.This video was much more helpful, the last one did not mention the back panel and rewrapping the water line. Thank you, very easy instructions.

    My washer is only 3 years old and had this problem. I was worried I would have to spend a ton on appliance repair, but I was able to use your video to fix it myself for the price of the rods only from amazon. Thanks so much. Your video was so easy to follow for a beginner. I've never repaired any kind of appliance like this and I fixed it in less than an hour! I've already done a ton of loads of laundry today to catch up on the piles that built up while it was broken. No unbalancing problems at all. Thanks again! Great video!

    This saved me around $450. I bought the $45 parts on Amazon as the original parts cost quite a bit more. It took me about 45 minutes to install and it works like new. The rods were stuck in with some glue, so I had to use a pliers to hold them and pull them out. Overall easy. I do have an extra screw, but I'll figure that out later.

    Hello Chris. This is Cathy. One of the other things that you should also learn to do about your washing machine besides just changing the old suspension rods and the springs of your washing machine is to make sure that you also wash more that just one thing at each time of you washing machine while you are having some issues with your septic tank.

    Wow Chris, I wish I’m handy as you. My washer made a lot of sound and I searched and it’s the bearing that holds the drum. There’s also smell of smoke too coz it burns the rubber inside already. My washer was front load. It’s an older washer (2007). Since the tutorial on UA-cam is very taxing (coz I have to take everything out), I just bought a new washer, and I wanted the dryer to be the same, so I bought a new dryer too (and sold the old one).

    OEM are either unobtainable, or cost prohibitive if the advertised ones are legit. I decided to try a different $35 Amazon set from the green “upgrades” we put in a few months ago. Advertised as resolving our issue, with hundreds of favorable reviews. Installed last night. Also did the recalibration process again. Two loads and no banging or uR code yet. I’m still skeptical, as our original replacement set seemed to work better for a little while. I’m thinking this washer design is just flawed in general. If the issue happens again, we may try to create and install bigger bumpers to put on the sides of the washer so the drum can’t move around as much. If that fails it will be a new washer from a different brand with the same flawed suspension design.

    • @ChrisThedudenurse
