Norge Washer vibrating or shaking
If your Norge washer is shaking, vibrating too much, or moving during the spin cycle, the washing machine damper is the most likely cause. A damaged or missing damper can no longer absorb tub movement, allowing the washer to become unbalanced. If the washer vibrates only while draining, inspect the drain pump for debris or a malfunction that may be causing the pump to run unevenly. Worn or separated shock absorbers are another common cause of a washer shaking violently, especially after the machine has been moved. Check the shock absorbers for damage, and replace the complete set when needed. Next, inspect the suspension rods and suspension springs, which support and stabilize the tub. A broken rod or spring can make the washing machine shake during operation. On a Norge top-load washer, a loose inner tub that moves excessively when rotated by hand may indicate a worn transmission. Before ordering, enter your model number to find the exact damper, drain pump, shock absorber, suspension rod, suspension spring, or transmission replacement part for your specific washing machine.
01 - Norge Washing Machine Damper
A washing machine damper helps to absorb the movement of the washer tub as it spins. If the damper is broken or missing, the tub might become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during the spin cycle. Inspect the damper for any damage and replace if necessary.

02 - Norge Washing Machine Drain Pump
If the washer is vibrating or shaking only during the drain cycle, it's likely that the drain pump is partially obstructed or malfunctioning in some other way. You should inspect the pump for any debris lodged in the ports and replace the component if you suspect it is malfunctioning.

03 - Norge Washing Machine Shock Absorber
One or more of the shock absorbers might be broken or worn out. The shock absorbers dampen the vibration of the washer tub. If one or more of the shock absorbers are worn out, the washer will vibrate or shake. Sometimes, when a washer is moved to another location, the shock absorbers can separate. Check the shock absorbers to ensure that they are positioned correctly, and inspect them for damage and wear. If one or more of the shock absorbers are broken or worn out, we recommend replacing all of the shock absorbers as a preventative measure.
Highly Likely
04 - Norge Washing Machine Suspension Rod
One or more of the suspension rods might be broken. The suspension rods help to dampen the movement of the washer tub. If one or more of the suspension rods are broken, the washer will vibrate or shake. To determine if the suspension rods are at fault, check the rods to determine if any of them are broken. If a suspension rod is broken, replace it.
Highly Likely
05 - Norge Washing Machine Suspension Spring
One or more of the suspension springs might be broken. The suspension springs help to absorb the movement of the washer tub. If a suspension spring breaks, the tub might become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during operation. Inspect the suspension springs to determine if any of the springs are broken. If a suspension spring is broken, replace it.
Highly Likely
06 - Norge Washing Machine Transmission
If a top-load washer's inner tub is loose when you try and rotate it by hand, then it's likely the transmission could be worn out or damaged. Inspect the transmission and replace if necessary.
Highly Likely
