WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

STRANGE NOISES

A common type of washing machine repair is for loud noises coming from the appliance. Repairmen can uncover the source of the strange noise and determine if we will need to repair or replace the broken parts. The origin of the sound is usually due to a worn-down motor or worn-out bearings or belt.

DOESN’T AGITATE

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

DOES NOT SPIN

A washing machine that doesn’t spin means there’s a problem with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. Griffin Appliance Repair can repair these problems quickly and have your washer spinning again very soon!

OVERFLOWS

The typical causes for a washer overflowing is either 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 doesn’t produce cold or hot water.

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD SOUNDS

The most typical dryer issue is strange noises coming from the machine. Broken seals, bearings or worn belts can lead to loud noises from dryers.

DOESN’T HEAT

A dryer that does not produce enough heat to dry laundry isn’t very helpful. The source of the issue is either a broken heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat. These exact same parts might also cause a dryer to be too hot. The technician will inspect the appliance to determine the problem and solution.

WILL NOT TURN ON OR TUMBLE

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

DOESN’T TURN OFF

The exact opposite issue happens when the dryer won’t shut off. The cause of this issue is either a broken timer or door switch.

TIMER DOESN’T ADVANCE

A dryer timer must advance in order to complete the cycle. When the timer won’t advance, it might mean there’s a broken cycling thermostat or timer motor.
