This design iteration doesn't have a physical off-balance switch.  OOB sensing is via motor controller detection of basket rotation characteristics and perhaps cabinet impact detection if it has an accelerometer on the board like a Neptune TL.  The RPS on the motor can be implicated in uL issues but I don't think that's very common.

Nothing appeared broken on my suspension rods but there was no way to judge the dampening characteristics of the pneumatic cylinders.  The tub would go to leaping like a bronco during spin acceleration, even with no clothes, bounce upwards and impact the machine top.  It's an amazing difference with the new rods.

Ours isn't doing anything like that so probably just a light load tripping out the motor balance detection stuff. We just did a huge deep wash whites load with aprons and towels. It claimed 99 minutes and never tripped the code once.
Well if anyone needs to do the bearings in one of these I certainly can recommend what to do and not do now so it will work first time. I should have had a helper or put a blanket in the outer tub so the shaft didn't crack it the second time I knocked it loose with the dead blow hammer. At least those hammers don't mar up the shaft or other parts when you wack the crap outa them in case you need to reuse anything.
