If your washer is not working properly, you might want to try to repair it on your own. But, if you still aren’t certain what is causing the issue after a little repair troubleshooting, you ought to call in the pros to prevent causing more damage to the washing machine. Here are five of the top problems you may experience with your washer and when you should call Mike’s Quality Services for washing machine repair.
Washer Will Not Turn On
Before panicking, be certain that the washing machine is plugged in and no circuit breakers were tripped. Next, redistribute your clothing inside the drum to make sure there’s an even load, and tightly shut the lid. If the washer still does not turn on, there might be an issue with the lid switch, timer circuitry, or electrical outlet, all of which need a pro to fix.
Washer Will Not Drain
When properly working, the washing machine ought to drain water from its drum before the spin cycle begins. If you open its lid after the wash and discover your clothing still swimming in liquid, check the drain hose for any clogs. If it’s clear, there might be an issue with the drive belt or water pump, which will require a pro replacement or repair.
Washer Will Not Fill
If the hot or cold water does not work, the hoses might be disconnected or kinked, or the faucets might be shut off. Look behind your washing machine to check if you can see any of these issues. Other possible causes for a washer that will not fill include sediment build-up inside the water intake valve, a clogged filter, or a delayed cycle selection. In order to narrow down those possibilities, call the professionals for help.
Washer Simultaneously Fills and Drains
If the washing machine fills during its drain cycle, it’ll become trapped in this stage and wastes a ton of water. This issue might be caused by a faulty air dome hose, water inlet valve, electrical circuit, or water level switch. To keep from causing more damage to the washing machine, let an expert solve it for you.
Washer Will Not Spin
If the washing machine fills normally yet will not spin or agitate, ensure that the door is properly latched. You also should check the belts for wear and tightness. If those are not the issue, the clutch assembly or drive motor coupling might be failing. In order to repair and diagnose the issue, request assistance from an appliance repair specialist.
