After replacing the direct drive motor coupling on my Whirlpool washer (mod #LSR7233EZ0) the wash tub wobbles out of control during the spin cycle. Not sure what I missed during reassembly. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Check out to see if one of the springs came loose, or more like a pad came off.
If you cannot find anything try replacing the springs. Make sure the tub is resting on the pads also, it may be that you just have to re set it.

Thanks! I did have to reset the diamond shape plate that had the pads on it. However, there was a gold colored pin that had a flat spot and a hole in it. I didn't really know where this pin went but did notice that after reseting the diamond shape plate there was a hole that lined up with the machines bottm frame. So I inserted the pin and put a cotter pin through the hole to hold it in place. Again, I not sure if this is where this pin goes or not, but the washer's spin cycle does seems to work better now. However, you can hear the pin makng nois when the spin cycle starts and gradually disapear as the spin cycle speeds up.

Ok, see if it doesn't work itself out. Sometimes when the tub structure is moved it needs to reset itself. If the pin noise continues take it out, that should not affect performance.

Thans Again! I was thinking the same thing. I will try this after I get a weeks worth of laundry done.
