WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

STRANGE SOUNDS

A reoccurring type of washer repair is for strange sounds coming out of the washer. Repairmen can diagnose the reason of the strange sound and determine whether we should repair or replace the broken appliance parts in the washing machine. The cause of the sound is often due to a worn-down pump motor or worn-out bearings or belt.

DOESN’T AGITATE

If your washing machine won’t agitate or turn on, check to see if it’s not plugged in or if a circuit breaker might have flipped off. The problem could also be due to a broken latch, timer or thermal fuse. A washing machine that won’t turn on or agitate means the cogs, coupler, drive belt or the transmission need immediate repair or need replacement.

WILL NOT SPIN

A washer that won’t spin means there’s a problem with the wax motor, door latch or motor coupling. We is able to fix these problems fast and have your washer spinning again very soon!

OVERFLOWS

The typical causes for a washing machine overflowing is the water inlet valve, water level pressure switch or the air dome tube on the washing machine.

NO HOT OR COLD WATER

A malfunctioning temperature control switch or inlet hose is often the reason a washing machine will not produce hot or cold water.

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD SOUNDS

The most typical dryer malfunction is strange sounds coming out of the machine. Broken bearings, seals or worn belts will often lead to loud noises from dryers.

DOESN’T HEAT

A dryer that will not produce enough heat to dry clothes won’t be very useful. The reason for the problem is likely a broken heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat. The same parts could cause a dryer to be too hot too. Our technician will inspect the dryer to uncover the issue and solution.

WON’T TURN ON OR TUMBLE

When your dryer won’t turn on, you want to be positive the dryer is plugged in and that every one of the circuit breakers are on. If the machine is not unplugged and still will not turn on or tumble, the heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat will need to be repaired or replaced.

DOES NOT SHUT OFF

The opposite issue is if the dryer won’t shut off. The reason for this particular problem is usually either a broken door switch or timer.

TIMER WON’T ADVANCE

A dryer timer must advance in order to complete the drying cycle. If the timer won’t advance, it could mean there’s a broken timer motor or cycling thermostat.
