How can I fix my washing machine?

My Washing Machine Won't Turn On!

Repair washer in Durban 

  • Start with the basics. Is the machine plugged in and the outlet working?
      • Your electrical panel might have a tripped breaker. Check and reset it if needed.
      • Top-loading washers have a lid switch. Ensure it’s properly closed and functioning.
  • The Load is Unbalanced:  if there are too many heavy items on one side of the tub can cause this. Smaller loads are always best. Redistribute the laundry and try the spin cycle again.
  • Drain Pump is Clogged: Lint, coins, or other small objects make their way into the drain pump. Carefully remove the access panel (refer to your owner’s manual) and clear the clog. Its important to unplug your washing machine before you take this next step 
  • Worn-out Drive Belt: Older machines use a belt to spin the drum. If it’s broken or loose, it needs replacing. This often involves more complex disassembly – time to call 
  • Inspect all hoses for cracks or loose connections. Tighten or replace as needed.
  • Using too much detergent can cause leaks. Always use HE (high-efficiency) detergent and follow the recommended dosage.
  • If the leak is internal, worn seals or a faulty pump are likely at fault. Call the experts for this kind of repair.

  • Check Your Water Supply: Are both the hot and cold water valves behind the machine fully open? A kinked supply hose can also restrict flow.
  • Inspect the Inlet Screens: Where the hoses attach to your washer, there are small mesh screens. Clear out any debris, such as rust or mineral buildup, clogging them.
  • Faulty Inlet Valve: This valve controls incoming water. If the screens are clear, the valve itself may be faulty. Replacing this part is a bit trickier – consider calling the pros at Smart appliance centre

  • Pump Clog, : Same as the issue with the spin cycle – clear out any obstructions within the pump.
  • Kinked Drain Hose: Straighten out any kinks in the hose running from your washer to the drain.
  • Drain Line Blockage: A clog further down your drain line might be the culprit. Call a plumber if you suspect this issue, but your friendly technicians at Smart appliance centre  can often lend a hand as well.

Washing machine repairs in Durban – FAQ

Mold and Mildew: Run a hot wash cycle with a cup of bleach (no clothes). Wipe down the door gasket and leave the washer door open between uses to air out. Call us to repair washer 

  • Clean the Drain Pump Filter: Remove and clean out this filter (usually located behind a small panel). It collects lint and gunk that can breed odors.
  • Run a Cleaning Cycle: Many newer machines have a designated cleaning cycle or use specialized washing machine cleaning tablets. Call us on 031 562 0666

A washing machine’s water consumption isn’t a fixed value. Several factors contribute to the amount of water used per cycle:

  • Machine Type: Top-loading washing machines, particularly older models, generally utilize more water than front-loading machines. However, newer high-efficiency (HE) models of both types have significantly reduced water usage.

  • Load Size: Washing machines typically adjust water levels based on the weight and volume of laundry. Larger loads necessitate more water, while smaller loads require less.

  • Cycle Selection: Different cycles, such as “bulky” or “delicate,” are programmed with varying water usage parameters. Water-intensive cycles consume more water than shorter or eco-friendly options.

  • Additional Features: Many modern washing machines incorporate water-saving features like automatic load sensing and multiple rinse options, further optimizing water consumption.
