Error Code: UL Difficulty: Easy
Problem: Unbalanced Load
How to Fix UL Error (Step-by-Step)
- The washer has paused automatically. Press the ‘Pause’ or ‘Cancel’ button to ensure the cycle is stopped.
- Wait for the spinning to stop completely and for the lid to unlock.
- Open the lid and observe the clothes inside. They are likely gathered on one side of the drum.
- If washing one large or absorbent item, add a couple of towels to help balance the weight.
- Close the lid firmly and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
- Press the ‘Start’ button to resume the cycle. The washer will attempt to spin again.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
