God is Good!
=Just to verify it is a problem with the machine, run it without any clothes in the machine. If is shakes and the code appears, there is for sure a problem with the machine. If only when it has clothes in it, maybe a balancing spring is weak (on 1 of the supporting rods you mentioned). Only guessing, sorry. Good luck. Is it out of warranty?

And every time I run it, it gives me the code for out of balance or overloaded. Which it has not been overloaded. I have adjusted and readjusted the laundry in it several times to get it to work and it still does not work properly. I even went ahead and added blocks under the back two legs in an effort to have the basket itself be level. That has not helped either.

It's and expensive HE washer. At this point I'm starting to call it a piece of junk. So yes I am rapidly losing my patience with it.
