Default Tub tilting and strange smell
Brand: KitchenAid
Model Number: kaw700g
Age: More than 10 years

I recently replaced the coupling in my direct drive washer. In trying to figure out how to do this, I turned the washer on its side (I know now this is not necessary). Now the tub will not stay upright and tilts to the right in all phases of washing. Also there is a strange, kind of burnt smell, but I do not think it is electrical. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks!

Hi,

Make sure all four springs are still in place.
