WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

LOUD NOISES

A common type of washing machine repair is for strange noises coming out of the appliance. Technicians knows how to troubleshoot the cause of the loud noise and decide whether we should repair or replace the broken appliance parts in the washing machine. The origin of the noise is typically because of a broken pump motor or worn belt or bearings.

WILL NOT AGITATE

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

DOES NOT SPIN

A washing machine that does not spin means there’s an issue with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. J&L Thousand Oaks Appliance Repair can repair these problems quickly and have your washer spinning again very soon!

OVERFLOWS

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

WATER TEMPERATURE PROBLEMS

A malfunctioning temperature control switch or inlet hose is often the reason a washer does not produce cold or hot water.

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD NOISES

The most common dryer malfunction is strange noises coming out of the machine. Broken bearings, seals or worn belts can lead to loud noises from clothes dryers.

WON’T HEAT

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

WON’T TURN ON OR TUMBLE

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

DOESN’T SHUT OFF

The exact opposite problem happens when the dryer does not shut off. The reason for this problem is usually either a broken timer or door switch.

TIMER DOESN’T ADVANCE

A dryer timer has to 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.
