Haier Washer vibrating or shaking
When your Haier washer is shaking, vibrating too much, or moving during the spin cycle, the most likely cause is a damaged or missing damper, which helps control tub movement. Inspect the Haier washing machine damper for cracks, separation, or other damage and replace it if needed. If the washer vibrates only while draining, check the drain pump for debris or a malfunction that can throw the machine off balance. Worn or disconnected shock absorbers are another common cause of a washer shaking violently, and replacing the full set is recommended when one is damaged. Next, inspect the suspension rods and suspension springs for breaks, incorrect positioning, or wear. Make sure the washer is level and that the load is distributed properly, since a leveling foot or an unbalanced load can also cause excessive movement. On a top-load washer, a loose inner tub that moves when rotated by hand may indicate a worn transmission. Enter your Haier washer model number to find the exact replacement damper, drain pump, shock absorber, suspension rod, suspension spring, transmission, or leveling foot for your specific washing machine.
01 - Haier 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 - Haier 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 - Haier 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 - Haier 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 - Haier 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.
Highly Likely
06 - Haier 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 - Haier 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.
