WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

STRANGE SOUNDS

A reoccurring type of washer repair is for strange sounds coming from the appliance. G&C Appliance Repair can uncover the cause of the loud sound and determine if we will need to repair or replace the broken parts. The origin of the noise is often due to a broken motor or worn bearings or belt.

WILL NOT TURN ON

If your washing machine doesn’t turn on, first check to see if it’s unplugged or if a circuit breaker might have flipped off. The issue could also be because of a broken door latch, timer or thermal fuse. A washing machine that does not turn on or agitate means the cogs, drive belt, coupler or the transmission need repair or replacement.

DOES NOT SPIN

A washing machine that won’t spin means there’s something wrong with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. We will fix these problems right away and have your washing machine spinning again very soon!

OVERFLOWS

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

NO HOT OR COLD WATER

A malfunctioning temperature control switch or inlet hose is usually the reason a washing machine won’t produce cold or hot water.

DRYER PROBLEMS

STRANGE NOISES

A very common dryer malfunction is strange sounds coming out of the machine. Broken bearings, seals or worn belts will often lead to strange noises from dryers.

DOES NOT DRY

A clothes dryer that does not generate enough heat to dry clothing is not very helpful. The source of the issue is either a broken heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat. The same parts might also cause a dryer to be too hot too. Our repairman will troubleshoot the dryer to determine the problem and solution.

WILL NOT TURN ON OR TUMBLE

If your dryer won’t turn on, you first will want to be positive the appliance is plugged in and every one of the circuit breakers are on. If the appliance is plugged in and still does not start or tumble, the high-limit thermostat, heating element or cycling thermostat will have to be repaired or replaced.

WILL NOT SHUT OFF

The opposite issue is if the dryer won’t shut off. The cause of this particular problem is usually either a broken door switch or timer.

TIMER WILL NOT ADVANCE

A dryer timer must advance in order to complete the cycle. When the timer doesn’t advance, it could mean there is a broken cycling thermostat or timer motor.
