I have a top load washer that leaks because the drum is tilted at an angle. The water would hit the rim of the drum/tub and leak out from the back. I found a broken spring part# AP4459650 and had that replaced. I even had the suspension spring and suspension bracket removed. Yet the problem is still there. Can someone help me? Thanks.
The model# is LA5558xswo. Thanks.
Sounds like a problem with your suspension or pads.

Hey Sidfink43, I have already changed the suspension springs. So all 4 springs have already been replaced. However, the drum is still tilted towards the motor. I have no clue why. Does the drum need to be alined or something???
The drum is not aligned on anything, and the whole apparatus floats on the suspension pads. Sounds like something out of whatck on your suspension, may have occurred when you replaced the springs but without being there I really cannot add much more to the conversation.
Maybe someone else can chime in here.
maytag neptune washer wont spin any ideas??? i changed the motor and still nothing
Spin cycle very noisy. How do I replace bearings?:eek:
Does it wash?
Check to make sure the door is fully closed.
Check for water left inside the washer.
Check for loose connections at the pressure switch, the machine control board, the motor, the tach harness and the motor control (CN8, CN9 & CN3).
Post the results.
