Electrolux Washer is unbalanced
When your Electrolux washer is unbalanced, shaking, or moving during the spin cycle, the most likely cause is that the washer is not level. A washer not level can wobble, vibrate too much, or develop a washer load balancing problem even when the clothes are distributed correctly. First, confirm that all four leveling feet are firmly touching the floor and that the appliance does not rock when you press on its corners. Adjust the leveling feet as needed, checking the cabinet from front to back and side to side with a bubble level. The machine not level is the next likely cause, so verify that the floor is stable and the washer remains level after adjustment. If the washer keeps going off balance or you cannot level it, a damaged leveling foot or another suspension component may require service. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement leveling foot or other Electrolux washing machine part for your specific appliance. Proper leveling usually corrects a washing machine unbalanced condition before more extensive repairs are needed.
01 - Washer not level
Confirm that the washer feet are equally touching the floor and the unit does not wobble. Adjust the leveling legs as needed; a bubble level can be used to confirm the washer is level from front-to-back and side-to-side. If the appliance can't be leveled, service may be required.
