WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

STRANGE SOUNDS

The most common type of washer repair is for strange noises coming from the machine. We can uncover the cause of the strange noise and decide whether we should repair or replace the broken parts. The origin of the sound is typically because of a broken pump motor or worn-out belt or bearings.

WON’T TURN ON

In the event your washer doesn’t agitate, first take a look to see if it is not plugged in or if a circuit breaker flipped off. The issue might also be from a broken latch, timer or thermal fuse. A washer that will not turn on means the cogs, drive belt, coupler or the transmission need repair or need replacement.

WON’T SPIN

A washing machine that doesn’t spin means there is a problem with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. Donaldson Appliance Repair is able to repair these problems in no time at all and have your washing machine spinning again very soon!

OVERFLOWS

The typical reasons for a washing machine overflowing is 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 washing machine won’t produce cold or hot water.

DRYER PROBLEMS

STRANGE NOISES

The most common dryer malfunction is strange noises coming from the appliance. Broken bearings, seals or worn-down belts will often lead to loud noises from dryers.

WILL NOT HEAT

A clothes dryer that will not produce enough heat to dry clothes is not very helpful. The cause of the issue is likely a broken heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat. The exact same parts can also cause a dryer to be too hot. Our technician will troubleshoot the machine to determine the issue and solution.

WILL NOT TURN ON OR TUMBLE

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

WILL NOT TURN OFF

The opposite problem is if the dryer does not turn off. The reason for this particular problem is usually either a broken door switch or timer.

TIMER WILL NOT ADVANCE

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