Signs Your Washing Machine Needs a Technician

  • Musty or mildew smell from the drum or door seal
  • Washer fills slowly, will not fill, or keeps filling
  • An error code on the display
  • Grinding or roaring noise that rises with spin speed

What Usually Goes Wrong

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.
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.
Belts, couplers and motorsDepending on the design, the motor turns the drum through a belt, a motor coupling or a direct-drive rotor. A worn belt, broken coupler or failed motor leaves the drum still while the washer hums or fills.

What a Washing Machine Technician Checks

Drive belt, coupler and motorBelt-drive washers turn the drum with a belt; others use a motor coupling or a direct-drive motor bolted to the tub. A hum with no movement, a burning smell or a drum that turns by hand too easily points here.
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.
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.

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

Around Greendale

Most washer calls in Greendale come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.

Wisconsin has no separate appliance repair license; plumbing licensing covers appliances connected to water supply systems, including water heaters, but exempts minor repairs to appliances and repair or replacement of gas or electrical control valves and devices.

In Wisconsin, you can check a license with the Wisconsin DSPS LicensE credential lookup or report a problem to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP), Bureau of Consumer Protection.

How to Choose a Washing Machine Technician Near Greendale

  • Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
  • Can you give a written estimate before ordering parts?
  • If the problem turns out to be the supply valves or the standpipe, do you handle that or should I call a plumber?

Washing Machine Repair FAQs: Greendale, WI

Why is there water left in my washer?
The usual causes are a clogged drain pump filter (on most front loaders), a kinked or blocked drain hose, a sock or small item caught in the pump, or a failed drain pump. Clear the filter and check the hose first. If water still sits in the drum, a technician can test the pump.
Why does my front-load washer 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.
How much does washing machine repair cost in Greendale?
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.
