  1. Samsung WA5451AN owner here. Foolishly put a single shirt in the washer, then left. So, the machine was off when I got home. The tub is tilted to the left now, seemingly permanently. I have run the machine with a couple of small loads and ran a rinse/spin cycle while empty. The tub won’t right itself. No codes are appearing and it is, believe it or not, washing normally. Research tells me that this machine doesn’t have a calibration mode. That seems to be what is needed!

  2. I have the same problem with mine interested to know if you get yours fixed. And what fixed it?

  3. Have a wa5471 with a pe1 code. Replaced the clutch motor and board. What is happening is it will start as if it’s gonna operate but then the clutch motor just starts rotating around and around. What could be causing this after replacing it and the board?

  4. Troy, did you figure out what was wrong with your washer, as I am having the same issues.
    It will spin just fine with the spin test, but I cannot get the load balanced.

  5. I have a WA5471 top load washer and the lid will not stay up when loading and unloading clothes. Is there a tension clip for the hinge. I can’t see what holds it up or if any part of the hinge is missing. Is there a diagram for that part.
    Thanks Doug
