How To Fix A GE Washer That Shakes While Spinning!

I show how to fix a GE washer that is shaking and banging around while spinning. The video shows step by step instructions on how to replace the suspension rods on any newer style GE washer the model in the video is GTW460ASJ5WW. The video is part of my series "Free on Facebook" in which I repair, repurpose, and recycle things that would otherwise be destined for the landfill.

You are a freaking LIFE SAVER! You just saved me hundreds of dollars from buying a new washer which my wife been on my ass about! THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!! Keep up the great work!

Really appreciate you putting these videos out. With as expensive as appliances are, seemingly worsening quality, and repair man so expensive, I find myself needing to fix more and more things on my own.... But couldn't do it without people like you sharing videos like this. Thanks!

You are doing a fantastic job with your very informative videos. I speak for many of us when I say thank you for helping strangers, up-cycling, recycling, and informing us all. Keep up the great work.

We have an Amana washing machine. But found the parts we needed on Amazon and followed this video. We were the lucky ones that had to take the rods out from the bottoms so definitely not a one man job on our machine but saved us lots of $$$! Fixed the issue for less than $30! Thanks so much!

I have repaired a lot of my appliances over the years. My washer was banging like crazy. I ordered the new suspension rods and now the washer is running like new. Thanks for the video.

Thank you so much! My cousin was about to spend $800 on a new washer. All she needed to do was spend $30 on the suspension rods. Lifesaver!!!!

I have this same washer and it's been slowly getting worse and worse about going out of balance and it's about 7 years old. I ordered a new one yesterday and stumbled upon your video. Needless to say I canceled my order for a new washer and bought new rods for $75 delivered. Thanks!

You are a genius sir! You helped an old lady fix her washing machine. Thank you.

Great video. Good job over explaining everything. Got mine apart and new rods on order. Thank you.

[priscillamheath]

Thank you very much. Now I got to figure out where to get the suspension rods.

Having this exact issue with this washer now - thanks for the video. Ironically, , subscribed yesterday after seeing another GE washer video you did. Good timing on this video.

Thanks for the video. We fixed our washer and it now runs exactly as it should.

Today there is more engineering used on just getting the product past the warranty date!!! Thanks for the video, I was just about to throw mine out! Also have a solenoid that's leaking.

I have the same issue but my machine is only 3 months old. Thanks for video. I have a 1 year warranty. 😇😇😇

I was having same issue on a 5 month old ge washer. Tech thought it was the rods. Problem not fixed. He brought me a new washer and he was going to take the original back to his store to check it out. When we unloaded the new one I checked the tub on the new one versus the older one. Turns out that the tub bolt or nut came loose. The tub would partially lift away from the agitator. Anyway I got to keep the new machine. Apparently the tub bolt or nut was not torqued properly at factory. Just a lucky find. Hope this helps someone.

What a great video. You just made my life easier. Gonna try to fix my washer machine which is less than a yr old.

[smokeshow]

Bad washer, for sure. I'm watching your video as I look at it now. Thank you for the video.

[neilharvey]

Brother I want say thanks! You are very informative, and saved me a ton.!

My sister just bought an identical looking washer this month, and it's doing the same thing, and the tub is sitting off center. This should be a warranty issue. She's single, and I gotta do the big brother stuff. Thanks for the info.👍

Thanks that was amazing, how do you check the rod if it’s bad and needs to be replaced😅 please provide links of spare part?
