Washer Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Loud banging, shaking or walking during the spin
  • Water on the floor under or in front of the washer
  • Burning smell or a motor that hums without turning
  • Washer will not spin, or clothes come out soaking wet

The Usual Washer Culprits in Lindenhurst

Suspension and bearingsShock absorbers, dampers and springs hold the tub steady during the spin. When they wear, the washer bangs and walks. Worn drum bearings make a rumbling or grinding noise that gets louder on the spin cycle.
Lid switches and door locksA washer will not fill, agitate or spin unless the lid switch or door lock tells the control the lid or door is shut and locked. A worn switch or failed lock is one of the most common parts replaced.
Drain pumps and filtersSocks, coins, hair ties and lint end up in the drain path. On most front loaders a small filter behind a panel at the bottom front catches them, and a clogged filter or jammed pump is behind many not-draining calls.

Inside a Washer Repair Visit

Drain pump and filterIf water stays in the drum, the technician checks the drain path first. Most front loaders have a pump filter behind a small panel at the bottom front, and many top loaders hide a pump that can jam on a sock or coin. The pump is then tested for power and blockage.
Water level sensingA pressure switch or sensor tells the control how much water is in the tub. A blocked air tube or failed switch can cause overfilling, underfilling or a washer that will not move on to the next step.
Water inlet valve and hosesAn electric valve meters hot and cold water in. A technician checks its inlet screens for sediment and tests its coils when the washer fills slowly, will not fill, or will not stop filling.

Troubleshooting first? Start with washer not draining or washer smells like mildew.

Questions to Ask a Lindenhurst Washer Technician

Washing Machine Repair FAQs: Lindenhurst, IL

Is the helpline a manufacturer?
No. We are an independent directory and are not affiliated with any appliance manufacturer. Our helpline connects you with a participating independent technician. If your washer is still under manufacturer coverage, contact the brand first.
What does a washer repair usually cost?
Most companies charge a service call or diagnostic fee that is often applied to the repair if you go ahead. Common jobs such as a lid switch, inlet valve, drain pump or drive belt are usually worth fixing on a washer that is otherwise sound. Our washing machine repair cost guide lists published ranges.
Why does my washer shake or walk across the floor?
An unbalanced load is the most common cause, followed by a washer that is not level. If it keeps happening with balanced loads on a level floor, worn shock absorbers, suspension springs or drum bearings are the likely cause, and a technician should check them.
