Depending on the type of damage involved, learn how to fix a washing machine may be more or less difficult.
How to fix a washing machine, if the fault is in the programmer
One of the most common faults often occur in the programmer, and which consists of a large number of switches that activate other electrical components of the machine. The controller essentially consists of two distinct parts: the first is formed by the switches. Recognize that it is damaged when turning the knob of the programmer and does not connect the solenoid to carry water or the motor that rotates the drum. In this case we replace it. To avoid mistakes in the position of each cable connecting the terminals will go back to the programmer as we disconnect the old one by one. The second part is the engine with a small pinion gear that turns the program step by step. If the engine burns know because the programmer does not automatically rotates to move from one phase to another washing. We can change the engine, which will leave us far cheaper than changing the entire program.
How to fix a washing machine, if no heating or hot water low
Another fault that tends to happen is the water heating system. This consists of two parts: thermostat and resistance. The hardness of the water tends to attack the resistance to be necessary in principle, set the thermostat at a higher temperature to heat the same. Anyway, lime usually end up destroying the resistance, so it must be replaced. To change it we must hold rubber drain the drum and, after removing the nuts of the resistance, push to remove the drain hole. The thermostat is attached by a small copper tube to a thermal probe which is at the bottom of the drum, about resistance. Being in contact with water also affects the lime. If it breaks down the thermostat or its housing, we replace the two since they are united to form the same piece.
How to fix a washing machine, if the engine does not turn or skid
Although less common, can also be a main engine failure. If burning is more profitable for a new one to be wound. When the belt slipping on the pulley of the motor, loosen one of the two screws holding it and pry on it, tighten the pulley. Without releasing the lever retightening the screw. If the belt is damaged, exchange it for a new one.
How to fix a washing machine, if dirty water is discharged
We removed the drain plug to check that is not clogged any object into the arms of the circulator. We will review the drain motor is in the bottom of the washer attached to rubber mentioned above. We can apply power directly to see if it works. If not right, we change.
How to fix a washing machine without water load
We review that current in the solenoid, which is connected to the water supply rubber. If there is no current, the controller fails. If it receives, the fault is in the solenoid and we will change it.
How to fix a washing machine, if not enough water or cargo load over
It regulates a switch in the top of the washing machine and is connected by a thin rubber to the bottom of the drum. This device comes with the original settings so it is not recommended to change them. If necessary, load the washing machine because little water or too much, spilling over the box of detergent, we can adjust it using the screws that is. When is regulated, we take a bead of sealant to keep the screws from loosening. If not, we will change.
How to fix a washing machine, if nothing works
We will verify that the power cable transmitting power to the machine and the safety switch is in the lock of the door is not damaged.
