WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

STRANGE SOUNDS

The most common type of washing machine repair is for strange sounds coming out of the machine. Technicians can troubleshoot the source of the strange noise and decide whether we will need to repair or replace the broken appliance parts in the washing machine. The origin of the sound is typically because of a worn-down pump motor or worn bearings or belt.

WILL NOT TURN ON

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

DOESN’T SPIN

A washing machine that will not spin means there is an issue with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. Witt Appliance Repair is able to fix these issues fast and have your washer spinning again ASAP!

OVERFLOWING

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

WATER TEMPERATURE ISSUES

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

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD SOUNDS

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

WON’T DRY

A clothes dryer that will not produce enough heat to dry clothes isn’t very useful. The reason for the issue is likely a broken high-limit thermostat, heating element or cycling thermostat. These same parts can also cause a dryer to be too hot. Our repairman will inspect the appliance to uncover the problem and solution.

WILL NOT TUMBLE OR TURN ON

When your dryer does not turn on, you will want to be positive the dryer is plugged in and all of the circuit breakers are flipped on. If the appliance isn’t unplugged and still does not turn on or tumble, the heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat will likely need to be repaired or replaced.

DOESN’T SHUT OFF

The opposite issue happens when the dryer will not shut off. The reason for this particular problem is either a broken door switch or timer.

TIMER DOES NOT ADVANCE

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