In any case, most customers are usually satisfied with the repairs carried out by professionals. Let’s not forget that washing machines are very robust equipment, manufactured to last for many years, at least 10 or even 15 if they are not used much or are from high-end brands. One piece of advice that our professionals always give us is that, if any part needs to be repaired, that it be used of quality and, if possible, original, from the same manufacturer (Whirlpool, General Electric, Samsung, Nisato, GPlus, LG, Mabe, Frigidaire, etc.). With this, we will be prolonging the useful life of our washing machine.

Let us now see what are its most common failures.
The washing machine does not turn on
The first thing in these cases is to check the power outlet. Sometimes the problem may be outside of the washing machine.If you just used it recently, it could be that the motor overheated. In this case, for safety, the washing machine will not turn on until it cools down.Finally, check the switches and try different programs before calling the technician.
boot failure
It is on and we press the “start” or “start” button and nothing happens.
The causes are very varied. They can range from an electrical failure, lack of voltage, to filter saturation problems. It may also be due to a problem with the door closing, which prevents the washing program from starting. Finally, the lack of water due to an obstruction in the inlet pipe can also be a cause (so check that the water has not been cut off!).
With this type of failure, which is very common, the first thing that the specialized technician will do is a very extensive diagnosis, in order to determine the cause of the problem. It can be incredibly simple (filter cleaning) or more expensive and complex (power failure).

The washing program stops and does not complete
This fault occurs when you have started a washing program and after a short time the washing machine stops. In such cases, the most common is that there is a problem with the water, either in the white water supply or in the pipes and/or outlet filters. For me, this is one of the worst problems, since you have your clothes and water inside and you can’t open the door.
To get the water out of the washing machine and access your clothes, you will have to do a manual drain. This solves the problem on many occasions, since what can happen is that the filter has become saturated precisely during that wash.
Another reason may be due to an overload of clothes in the drum. The weight of wet clothes, mainly large towels or bath mats, affect the washer’s sensors and the washer turns off. An excessive amount of clothing can also overload the motor that stops to cool down.

Sometimes the fault can be in the drive belt. To find out, simply, once the clothes are removed, try to turn the drum. If there is no resistance, it is probably the belt.
Other causes may be in the pump or motor. For example, if the water heating is defective, the washing machine usually stops in the middle of the cycle.
In any case, it is better to call the technician as soon as possible.
Faulty spin
In this case, the most common is that the fault is in the drum of the washing machine or in the pump. You can perceive it by strange noises, vibration, lack of speed, etc. The result is always the same: your clothes are soaked.
This failure requires time to diagnose and a good specialist technician. The chances that you will have to change a part are very high, although on other occasions it may simply be an object obstructing the mechanism… Hence the importance of looking carefully at those pockets before putting the clothes in the washing machine.

excessive noise
You notice it the second. Your washing machine now makes noises or a vibration that it did not make before. The most common is that the fault is in the filter, the drain, the drum or in the bearings.
Do not continue using it because you can cause more damage.
As in the previous case, it is likely that the technician will have to disassemble the washer to find the source of the problem.
At the end of the wash there is still water in the washing machine
The most common cause of this failure is a blockage of the drain pipes and filters. Also, depending on the life of the washing machine, you may have problems with the motor or the pump and it can no longer evacuate water as well as before or you see that your clothes are very soaked. In the latter case, it would be a progressive increase in water at the end of the wash, over months. If this problem occurs from one day to the next, the most normal thing would be a blockage or a failure in the pump.

Water comes out from somewhere in the washing machine
If you see water on the ground and you don’t know where it comes from, problem. Sometimes we have loaded the washing machine too much and in some models a little water can escape. It may also be that you have overdone the detergent. But this is not entirely normal. So, if you are not in the two previous cases, it is likely that we have some kind of crack inside our washing machine: in the rubber, in the tub, etc. or at the water inlet to the washing machine. This last case is quite common. You should inspect these hoses at least once a year, as they don’t usually last more than 5 years. They end up deteriorating and it is a very common cause of water leakage.
Finally, always try to find out where the water comes from. If you see, for example, that the water is coming from the door, there may be a problem with the mechanism.

The washing machine does not wash well
First check that the detergent and/or fabric softener trays are not clogged. If that is the case, you will be washing without detergent and it is normal that the clothes do not come out clean! Another very common reason is that you have overloaded the washing machine or that you have selected an inappropriate program. That makes your washes very inefficient. You may think that “you are saving”, but in reality you only get more than having to do a new laundry.
At other times, a faulty drainage system can also be the cause of this failure.
The washing machine smells bad
A few days ago, we gave some tips to prevent this from happening to you. In any case, check for blockages, especially the drain hose. Doing a cleaning cycle or using products such as “tea tree” are a good way to give your washing machine a change of scenery.
