Asko Washer vibrating or shaking

If your Asko washer is shaking, vibrating too much, or moving during spin, start by inspecting the washing machine damper. A damaged or missing damper can let the tub become unbalanced and cause the washing machine to shake violently during the spin cycle. If the washer vibrates only while draining, check the drain pump for debris or signs of malfunction. Worn or separated shock absorbers are another common cause of a noisy, unstable washer, and replacing all shock absorbers is recommended when one has failed. Next, inspect the suspension rods and suspension springs for breaks, damage, or incorrect positioning. On a top-load model, a loose inner tub may indicate a worn or damaged transmission. Before testing or replacing parts, unplug the washer and follow proper safety procedures. Enter your model number to find the exact replacement damper, drain pump, shock absorber, suspension rod, suspension spring, or transmission for your specific Asko washing machine.

01 - Asko Washing Machine Damper

A washing machine damper helps to absorb the movement of the washer tub as it spins. If the damper is broken or missing, the tub might become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during the spin cycle. Inspect the damper for any damage and replace if necessary.

02 - Asko Washing Machine Drain Pump

If the washer is vibrating or shaking only during the drain cycle, it's likely that the drain pump is partially obstructed or malfunctioning in some other way. You should inspect the pump for any debris lodged in the ports and replace the component if you suspect it is malfunctioning.

03 - Asko Washing Machine Shock Absorber

One or more of the shock absorbers might be broken or worn out. The shock absorbers dampen the vibration of the washer tub. If one or more of the shock absorbers are worn out, the washer will vibrate or shake. Sometimes, when a washer is moved to another location, the shock absorbers can separate. Check the shock absorbers to ensure that they are positioned correctly, and inspect them for damage and wear. If one or more of the shock absorbers are broken or worn out, we recommend replacing all of the shock absorbers as a preventative measure.
Highly Likely

04 - Asko Washing Machine Suspension Rod

One or more of the suspension rods might be broken. The suspension rods help to dampen the movement of the washer tub. If one or more of the suspension rods are broken, the washer will vibrate or shake. To determine if the suspension rods are at fault, check the rods to determine if any of them are broken. If a suspension rod is broken, replace it.
Highly Likely

05 - Asko Washing Machine Suspension Spring

One or more of the suspension springs might be broken. The suspension springs help to absorb the movement of the washer tub. If a suspension spring breaks, the tub might become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during operation. Inspect the suspension springs to determine if any of the springs are broken. If a suspension spring is broken, replace it.
Highly Likely

06 - Asko Washing Machine Transmission

If a top-load washer's inner tub is loose when you try and rotate it by hand, then it's likely the transmission could be worn out or damaged. Inspect the transmission and replace if necessary.
Highly Likely

07 - Asko Washing Machine Counter Balance Spring

One or more of the counterbalance springs might be broken. The counterbalance springs help to absorb the movement of the washer tub. If a spring breaks, the tub might become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during operation. Inspect the counterbalance springs to determine if any of the springs are broken. If a counterbalance spring is broken, replace it. Additionally, check the frame where the counterbalance springs are attached. If the frame is rusted, replace it.
