My 3 year old Hoover HQ 130 washing machine vibrates heavily ONLY on very high spin as if it is a balance problem, (not overloaded).
I have removed the two dampers and slightly pressed the metal sides to stiffen the suspension. I have also added a spring to each of the suspension springs to stiffen these. The noise seems to be stronger on the ‘liquid drawer’ side.
The machine has been levelled.
This makes no difference.
Any suggestions where to look next?Re: Hoover HQ130 Srl. 31000158 0245 2358 Date 07-01-03
Hi
Purely from a safety aspect, I wouldn’t be modifying any appliance. There will be reasons why you are experiencing this symptom.With the appliance un-plugged, I would check the motor brushes incase they have worn sufficiently to interfere with the pre-spin or distribution cycle and thus causing the load to become unbalanced or you may have a module,suspension or overloading fault.
If in any doubt of your ability please feel free to use the engineer link below.

😳 Thanks for that Greg, I have checked the motor brushes and they are in a healthy state.
Is the modual a printed circuit?
Does the ‘overloading’ statement mean too many clothes in drum?
