Frigidaire washer FWS445RFS0 vibrating on the final spin, if I lean on it, is it okay?
Excessive vibration during the final spin of your Frigidaire washer (model FWS445RFS0) can indicate an imbalance or issue with the machine. Leaning on the washer to temporarily reduce the vibration is not a recommended solution. Instead, consider the following steps:
1. Leveling: Ensure that the washer is properly leveled. Use a bubble level to check if it is balanced from front to back and side to side. Adjust the leveling legs or feet as necessary to achieve a level position.
2. Load distribution: Properly distribute the laundry load inside the washer drum. Unevenly distributed clothes can create imbalance and lead to excessive vibration. Separate heavy items from lighter ones and place them evenly around the drum.
3. Overloading: Avoid overloading the washer beyond its recommended capacity. Overloading can strain the machine and cause increased vibration during the spin cycle.
If the issue persists or if the vibration is severe, it is advisable to consult a qualified technician or contact Frigidaire customer support for further assistance.
