WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

LOUD NOISES

The most common type of washer repair is for strange sounds coming out of the machine. Technicians knows how to 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 usually due to a worn-down pump motor or worn-out belt or bearings.

WON’T TURN ON

When your washing machine doesn’t agitate or turn on, first check to see if it is unplugged or if a circuit breaker is flipped off. The issue could also be due to a broken latch, thermal fuse or timer. A washer that won’t turn on or agitate means the agitator cogs, coupler, drive belt or transmission need repair or replacement.

DOESN’T SPIN

A washing machine that won’t spin means there’s a problem with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. BRAND is able to fix these issues in no time at all and have your washer spinning again ASAP!

OVERFLOWS

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

NO HOT OR COLD WATER

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

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD NOISES

The most common dryer problem is strange noises coming from the machine. Broken bearings, seals or worn-down belts will often lead to strange sounds from clothes dryers.

WON’T HEAT

A clothes dryer that does not generate enough heat to dry clothing is not very useful. The reason for the problem is likely a broken heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat. These exact same parts might also cause a dryer to be too hot too. The technician will inspect the dryer to uncover the issue and solution.

WON’T TUMBLE OR TURN ON

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

WON’T TURN OFF

The exact opposite issue happens when the dryer doesn’t shut off. The cause of this particular issue is usually either a broken timer or door switch.

TIMER WILL NOT ADVANCE

A dryer timer is required to advance in order to complete the cycle. When the timer doesn’t advance, it could mean there is a broken cycling thermostat or timer motor.
