Washer Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Loud banging, shaking or walking during the spin
  • Water left in the drum after the cycle
  • Washer fills slowly, will not fill, or keeps filling
  • Washer will not start or the lid or door stays locked

What Usually Goes Wrong

Hoses, seals and the door bootFill hoses age and crack, drain hose clamps loosen, and the rubber door boot on a front loader can tear or trap water. Leaks usually start small under the washer before they show on the floor.
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.

Inside a Washer Repair Visit

Suspension and shocksShock absorbers, dampers or suspension rods keep the tub from slamming during the spin. Worn parts cause banging, off-balance shutdowns and a washer that walks across the floor.
Tub bearings and sealA rumble or roar that gets louder as the drum speeds up usually means worn bearings, often after a tub seal has let water reach them. It is one of the bigger repairs, so the technician will compare it with the washer's age and value.
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 front-load vs top-load washer problems or washer not filling with water.

If Your Washer Is Leaking

Washing Machine Repair FAQs: Kirksville, MO

How do I get rid of a washer mildew smell?
Residue from detergent and fabric softener collects in the door boot, the dispenser and the drum. Wipe the boot, clean the dispenser, run the washer's cleaning cycle or a hot empty cycle, and leave the door open between loads.
What stops a washer from spinning?
An unbalanced load, water that will not drain, or a lid switch or door lock that is not engaging stops most spin cycles. If those check out, a technician looks at the drive belt, motor coupling, motor and control.
Why is my washer leaking?
Common sources are a loose or cracked fill hose, the drain hose connection, a torn door boot on a front loader, too much detergent causing suds overflow, or a leaking pump or tub seal. Unplug the washer and shut both valves, then look where the water starts.
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.
