Washing machine is a familiar household appliance, is now occurring in most apartments and houses.And if it breaks down, it becomes a vexing problem that requires an immediate solution.

call the master, you can repair a typewriter rather quickly, but will have to pay for his work.But sometimes, having understood the possible causes of failure, it is realistic to fix the problem on their own, to repair equipment with their own hands.And should learn to do this, how to construct a washing machine, how they work, what damage are the most common and how to repair the product yourself.

device

in the washing machine there are such sites:

housing to the panel to select the program;
detergent dispenser;
door latch and seal;
tank;
motor;
drum;
temperature sensor;
heating element;
Drive belt;
Valves for water supply;
pump;
intake valves;
Spring Suspension;
supply hose;
exhaust hose;
Adjustable feet;
Loads balancing;
dialed level control of water;
Drip collector;
drain standpipe.

The principle of

Virtually all devices operate on this principle:

After opening the intake valve is filled with the required amount of water into the drum.Once the water is filled to the level determined by the regulator, the valve closing occurs.
water starts to heat.When the temperature sensor without heating element will trip the timer.
At the same time involved in the work of the electric motor, so that the drum begins to rotate in both directions, with its twists and turns occur at different periods of time.
pump starts to pump out the contaminated water, and then in pure water drum typed.
After inclusion of a new engine starts underwear rinsed at low revs.Next
engine is switched off and the water is pumped out again, and then turn the engine gaining momentum and spin occurs linen.

not turn

reason	What
mistake to select a program for washing	Look at the program selector to make sure there are no includedpause mode.
does not work start button	Using a tester, you should check whether you press the button acts.If it is faulty, follow the replacement of a button.
The door is not closed	Check whether the door is firmly locked unit.It can interfere with the seal.
The machine is not connected to the network or machine engraved into the panel	Check whether the device is connected to the network, and whether the electricity is supplied to the house.
faulty plug	parse the plug to make sure that the contact connections are intact.
water can not enter the car	See if valves through which water must be fed into the machine open.
defective wiring inside the machine	have disconnected from a network device, remove the outer panel, check the terminal clamps (if they are oxidized, follow the cleaning) and the cord to ring in search of a cliff.
Broke timers	Turn the program selector until you have the beginning of rotation of the drum.So you check the timer, and if a non-business, will spend his replacement.

The water is not heated

reason	What
problem with the water level control (heater is not activated when the controller does not respond to contentdrum)	Check switch and if found damage, replace it with a new one.
Heater, heater was covered with scum	Disassemble the machine, remove the heater and remove the scale from it, and then return the item to the place and pick up the car.
heater broke	Check the condition of the contacts.If oxidation has occurred they use for cleaning fine sandpaper.If the contacts are loose, tighten them.If the problem is not in the contacts after disconnecting one wire to ring for an open heater.Burn the heater will have to replace a new part.
not functioning thermostat, which disables the heater when the water is gaining the desired temperature	Try to work the thermostat and make it replaced by a new part if the need arises.

Replacing the heating element can be made at home.The process of replacing the heating element in the washing machine Ardo, LG c front-loading and buying tips PETN, see the video of Vladimir Hotuntseva.

The machine stops during the wash

reason	What
incorrectly selected program of work machine	Zoom into the panel, making sure that the switch is not on hiatus.
not supplied power	Using a tester, check up the supply voltage in the power outlet, as well as whether the machine is not turned off in the panel and whether plugs are OK.
clogged hoses	Check the condition of the inlet and outlet hoses, and after the discovery of clogging make washing hoses.
Broken or clogged pump	removing the pump, check the impeller and replace any faulty pump if necessary.
is dirty or broken inlet valve	The first step is to clean the valve, and when failure to replace this item new.
drain water through the outlet hose (water entering the machine due to the siphoning immediately poured out of the machine)	Check how well connected outlet hose from the riser.
Broke thermostat	necessary to check whether this detail, and perform the replacement on the serviceable thermostat if necessary.
Broken heating element	After checking the electric circuit Replace the element if necessary.
timer does not function programmer	If the item does not work, you will have to replace it with a new timer.
Broke motor	Remove the drive belt, then turn and spin, after the machine to the network, check whether the motor is started to rotate.Faulty engine must be disassembled and then check the operation of its elements.

pump replacement can be made with your own hands.Vladimir Hotuntsev tell you about the pump replaced at Bosch washer and dryers in the next video.

not spin

reason	What
Invalid mode	Check whether the pause the selected program is activated.
drive belt is not in place	Check the condition of the drive belt (as he stretched) - if you have clicked on the belt, and he moved up to 12 mm, all right.Seeing that the strap is not tight enough or jumped off a little slip elekrodvigatel down, pull the belt (make sure that it was not too will draw), then tighten the bolt.If the machine is not provided tensioner have to replace the drive belt to the next.
