My washer gets off balance and displays a ul code
Hi, the UL code on your washer means unbalanced load. If this is the first time it has happened just pause the washer and redistribute the clothes and continue the cycle. If you get this error a lot there is a suspension rod kit available for the issue. Part # W10189077. Also Whirlpool has had issues with the tub bearing that can add to the out of balance problem. If it makes a loud roar while spinning then it needs a bearing kit also. Your looking at around $170.00 for the suspension rod repair and $ 270.00 to have both the the bearing kit and rod kit replaced. Hope this helps.

One thing to understand is that this is a difficult problem to pin down and may end up requiring the control board to be replaced.
The UL or unbalanced load error is displayed when the control board senses an out of balanced load.
You don't indicate if the washer is actually out of balanced or not when the code appears but the description of banging and shaking would indicate it is out of balanced.
If the washer consistently bangs and shakes in spin then I's suggest you remove the spin basket and check under it for obstructions that might prevent the washer from spinning smoothly.
