How Refitec Diagnoses Washing Machine Faults

At Refitec, we follow a systematic and professional approach to washing machine fault diagnosis to ensure accurate repairs the first time. Here’s how we do it:

Step 1 – Initial Consultation: We first speak with the customer to understand the symptoms — what the machine is doing, when the problem started, and any error codes displayed.

Step 2 – Visual Inspection: Our technician performs a thorough visual check of the machine’s exterior and interior components including the drum, door seal, hoses, and control panel.

Step 3 – Electrical Testing: We use digital multimeters and specialized testing tools to check voltage, continuity, and resistance on electrical components such as motors, capacitors, heating elements, and control boards.

Step 4 – Mechanical Assessment: We inspect the drive belt, drum bearings, pump, and suspension system for wear, damage, or failure.

Step 5 – Error Code Diagnosis: For modern digital washing machines, we read and interpret error codes using manufacturer diagnostic guides and professional software where applicable.

Step 6 – Fault Report and Quotation: We explain the fault to the customer in simple language and provide a transparent cost estimate before proceeding with any repair.

Step 7 – Repair and Testing: Once approved, we carry out the repair using quality spare parts and test the machine through a full wash cycle to confirm the problem is fully resolved.

On-Site and In-Shop Repair Services

Refitec understands that convenience matters. That’s why we offer two flexible service options to suit your needs:

On-Site Repair (We Come to You) Our mobile technicians come directly to your home, apartment, or office in Lolwe and Kisumu. On-site service is ideal for large appliances like washing machines that are difficult to transport. You get the repair done without any inconvenience of moving your machine. We typically respond within the same day or the next business day depending on your location and scheduling.

In-Shop Repair (Drop Off at Our Workshop) If you prefer or if the machine requires more extensive bench repair, you can drop it off at our workshop. Our workshop is fully equipped with professional tools, diagnostic equipment, and a wide range of genuine and compatible spare parts. In-shop repairs are often faster for complex faults that require more time and specialized equipment.

Both service options come with the same commitment to quality, transparency, and customer satisfaction.


Tips to Prevent Washing Machine Problems

Proper maintenance can significantly extend the life of your washing machine and reduce the frequency of repairs. Here are practical tips to keep your machine running smoothly:

1. Don’t Overload the Machine — Always follow the manufacturer’s recommended load capacity. Overloading puts stress on the drum, motor, and bearings, leading to premature wear.

2. Use the Right Detergent and Correct Amount — Always use detergent designed for your machine type (HE detergent for front loaders). Too much detergent causes excessive foam buildup, which can damage internal components.

3. Clean the Drum Regularly — Run an empty hot wash cycle with a drum cleaning tablet or white vinegar at least once a month to remove mold, detergent residue, and bacteria.

4. Clean the Filter Frequently — Most washing machines have a lint/pump filter that should be cleaned every 1–2 months. A clogged filter leads to drainage problems.

5. Wipe the Door Seal After Every Wash — Moisture trapped in the rubber gasket causes mold and unpleasant smells. Wipe it dry after every use and leave the door slightly open when not in use.

6. Check and Clean the Detergent Drawer — Remove and rinse the detergent drawer monthly to prevent blockages and detergent buildup.

7. Inspect Hoses Regularly — Check inlet and drain hoses for cracks, kinks, or leaks. Replace them every 3–5 years as a precaution.

8. Keep the Machine Level — Ensure your washing machine is on a flat, stable surface. An unleveled machine vibrates excessively, which damages bearings and suspension rods.

9. Don’t Leave Wet Clothes in the Drum — Remove laundry promptly after the cycle ends to prevent mold and odors inside the drum.

10. Service Your Machine Annually — Book a professional maintenance check with Refitec at least once a year to catch small issues before they become costly repairs.
