WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

LOUD SOUNDS

A common type of washing machine repair is for loud noises coming from the machine. We can diagnose the source of the strange sound and decide if we need to repair or replace the broken parts. The source of the noise is usually because of a worn-down motor or worn-out belt or bearings.

WON’T TURN ON

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

DOESN’T SPIN

A washer that won’t spin means there’s something wrong with the wax motor, door latch or motor coupling. Lane Appliance Repair is able to repair these issues right away and have your washer spinning again ASAP!

OVERFLOWS

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

WATER TEMPERATURE PROBLEMS

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

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD SOUNDS

A very typical dryer issue is strange sounds coming out of the machine. Broken bearings, seals or worn belts often lead to loud sounds from dryers.

DOESN’T DRY

A dryer that won’t create enough heat to dry clothes won’t be very helpful. The cause of the issue is likely a broken heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat. These same parts might also cause a dryer to be too hot. The repairman will troubleshoot the dryer to determine the problem and solution.

WILL NOT TURN ON OR TUMBLE

If your dryer won’t turn on, you first want to be positive the dryer is plugged in and that every one of the circuit breakers are flipped on. If the appliance is plugged in and still doesn’t start or tumble, the high-limit thermostat, heating element or cycling thermostat will likely need to be repaired or replaced.

WON’T TURN OFF

The opposite issue happens when the dryer doesn’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 is required to advance in order to complete the drying cycle. If the timer won’t advance, it might mean there’s a broken cycling thermostat or timer motor.
