Can't be more perfect! Sorry for the delay...just had to wait for a bit of assistance from my step-son
This is the third I ask PartSelect for assistance and so far...NEVER BEEN DISSAPPOINTED!!! Uncanny in these times and also referring to up to 15 year old appliances but as for my first two times, THESE parts were exactly what I wanted and most of all NEEDED. The assistance in the searching, the "to the point" help videos making the installations as if we've done this before makes my experience (s) SO good that I can only laugh at the "Money Back Guarantee" since you WON'T be needing that! Shop with confidence?!?! Hey, I've tried 3 times so far for my refrigerator, my washer and my dryer and PartSelect knocked it out of the water all three times!!! I definitely recommend AND THANK PartSelect for their service.

A little more difficult to install than what one was led to believe.
The parts got the problem fixed, though I could see no difference between the old and new parts. Washer is working much better now. A bit of a hassle to change. I had to use one of the old suspension rods to pull up the new rods far enough get them through the upper openings and fix them into the circular balls. Curious as to why these devices are not manufactured with shock absorbers though.

Perfect resulty and thankyou for your quick service.
The washer technician said buy a new one as we can no longer find the parts. His name was Bernie Raskin. I He took $80 cash no receipt and left. I got on the Internet found you and ordered and with 2 days they came. I phoned him up to say I had the parts and after twice changing the date he would come I phoned and said "I don't think you want to come and mend my machine" with at I think I had bruised his ego for he shouted at the top of his voice at me "GET SOMEONE ELSE" and slammed the phone down. I am 80 years old and a pensioner and I think he is outrageous just collected cash from us thinking we are brainless. My middle aged Chines man that cuts my grass and sorts my computer out. I called and he came and changed the rods in 1 hour and the machine is working like a charm. Thank you for your quick delivery and I have told others about your company and perhaps I might drop a line to the newspaper of my ordeal. Regards Muriel Altiparmakyan

Unbalanced drum during spin cycle
1. Unplug washer 2. Remove 3 plates off of the control box that attaches to the body of the washer 3. Using a 2 inch putty knife locate spring clips and push in to release 4. Lift top and secure 5. Lift up suspension rod and pop off the ball socket it sits in, then reach down and locate the clip of the suspension rod and push the tabs in. It should just fall out. 6 make sure you clean the top well before reinstalling the new rod. 7. To install new suspension rod secure the top of the rod first then lift the drum and click in the bottom of the suspension rod. I recommend once you do the first rod then go to the back right corner and install that rod next. You will notice that their will be power and water lines on a clip that attaches to the rod. Disconnect from the rod and replace the rod. If you do this rod last the drum will have a lot of tension from the new springs and it will be difficult to install.

Unbalanced Load
I followed the video instructions provided. However, I used the hook on an old rod to pull the new rods through the corner holes in the top of the dryer. Simple invert the old rod and feed through the hole, hook onto the new rod and lift through the hole. It enabled me to lift the tub with one hand and put the plastic seat and new rod in place with the other hand. Too easy and sped up the repair job.

Whirlpool Cabrio top load washer Error UL
Lived about 6 months with noisy, unbalanced, vibrating top-load washer that would not fully drain clothes or finish a spin cycle.
Watched as many You-Tube repairs videos as we could. Had difficulty trying to open the top panel for access to spin tub.
Discovered that we had clips in front, about 6" from each side, that needed pressure push with flat metal paint scraper, in order to open the top for access.
Other than that delay, took us about 2 hours total with two of us working together. In the end, Suspension Kit was exactly what we needed, and NO longer get the UL error code, with bothersome constant spin stops, which failed to spin water out of wet clothing.

How do you know when the suspension rods are bad?
For model number MTW6500TQ0
Hi Mike, Thank you for the question. When the drum is shaking and and moving around the rods normally need to be replaced. Hope this helps!

I hate to spend money on parts if not sure of the problem. How do i test the suspension springs on my washer to see if bad before i buy new springs? Ever thing looks good, nothing broken, 2007 Whirlpool, walks around the block when spin cycle, even with no cloths in washer. Thanks ron ps, if you see my washer going your way, can you send it back to me.
Good Morning,
Thank you for your question. There is no test for the springs unfortunately. The only thing I could suggest you do is take one of the springs off and pull on it. If the spring can be stretched fairly easily, then it will likely need to be replaced. Usually when you are having such strong shaking and moving, it is your suspension rods that would be the issue. Good luck with your repair.

If replace suspension and basket parts and still i'm and stops, what are the chances that water pump is partially bad? Still have a little water below bottom of tub. Please advise if this is possible. Thanks
For model number Www6400sw2
Hello Mark, Thank you for your inquiry. You can test the pump with a multimeter to see if it has continuity. We would also advise checking the water inlet valve as well. Hope this helps!

My sister in law purchased her Whirlpool cabrio washer in 2007. Recently her washer started to shake during the rinse/spin cycle, get the "ul" code, and then stop working. She has tried redistributing the load and restarting which works sometimes. She also tried unplugging the washer and restarted (rebooting the computer) which worked once, but doesn't seem to help the situation. Everything i have researched seems to point to the suspension rods. Should this suspension rod kit take care of the problem?
For model number WTW6600SW2
Hello Mike,
Thank you for your question. The suspension rod is most likely to fix the issues since the error refers to an off-balance in the washer tub, it would help keep the tub balanced and fix the issues. We hope this helps.

. what is wrong with your washing machine after you have change the suspension rods and it is still banging ?what do i need to do ?
For model number Mtw6600tb0
Hello Ronnie, thank you for your question. There are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the Suspension Ball Kit Part Number: W10198919, Basket Hub Kit Part Number: W10820039, and your Leveling Leg Part Number: W10739673 to be sure they are keeping the unit level. I would also check the Tub Ring WPW10130807. I hope this helps!

The washer works fine until the spin cycle, then it gets unbalanced. The ul code comes on and the washer shuts down. Reloading the washer sometimes works after several try. What part do i need to repair this problem. P.S. I just changed the drain motor. Thanks
For model number wtw6600sw2
Hi Mike,
Thank you for your inquiry. There are some parts that you will need to check to see which one is causing the issue. You will need to check the basket hub, the drain pump, the rotor position switch and the electronic machine and motor control board. I hope this helps. Thank you and have a great day!

How long are your suspension rods for model #wtw6400ws3 whirlpool cabrio washer - supposed to be 29.5 - 30 inches long. But everyt time I get this part (4 companies now) it only measures 26.25 - 26.5 inches long???
I keep getting OEM part # W10820048. It's obviously wrong! 4 different companies have done the same at 26.25 - 26.5 inches long.
THEY ARE TOO SHORT!

What is the difference between the red and blue suspension rods
For model number GCWP1800D0WW
Hi Ira, thank you for your question. As listed in each part title description. The red are your rear rods and the blue are your front rods. This kit does not fit your appliance. You will need two of each of the red and blue rods listed directly underneath your appliance. Good luck with your repair.
