Common Washing Machine Problems and Professional Solutions

Below we break down the most frequent washing machine problems, their technical causes, and professional solutions, along with maintenance tips to avoid repeat breakdowns.

1. Washing Machine Not Turning On

Problem:
You press the power button but your washing machine won’t start.

Technical Causes:

• Faulty power supply or blown fuse
• Defective door switch (machine won’t start unless the door is locked properly)
• Faulty control board (PCB failure)
• Burnt-out power capacitor

Solution by Refitec:
Our Nairobi repair experts will test your power socket, wiring continuity, door interlock mechanism, and PCB board. If needed, we replace faulty switches, fuses, or PCBs with genuine parts.

Maintenance Tip: Always use a stable power source or a surge protector to avoid PCB burnout from Nairobi’s fluctuating electricity supply.

2. Washing Machine Not Spinning

Problem:
The washer fills with water but won’t spin, leaving clothes soaked.

Technical Causes:

• Worn-out drive belt
• Motor failure
• Defective spin solenoid
• Faulty tachometer sensor (used in automatic machines to regulate motor speed)

Solution by Refitec:
We’ll check the motor windings, drive belt tension, spin clutch, and tachometer sensors. If parts are worn out, we replace them with genuine spares.

Maintenance Tip: Do not overload your washing machine – it strains the motor and damages belts.

3. Washing Machine Not Draining Water

Problem:
The washer finishes the cycle, but water remains inside the drum.

Technical Causes:

• Blocked drain hose or pump filter clogged with lint/coins
• Faulty drain pump motor
• Damaged pressure switch (which tells the machine water level)

Solution by Refitec:
We unclog drain hoses, clean filters, and test the pump motor resistance. If damaged, we replace the pump with a genuine spare part.

Maintenance Tip: Clean the filter monthly and avoid washing clothes with coins, keys, or heavy debris inside.

4. Washing Machine Making Loud Noise or Vibrations

Problem:
Your machine shakes violently during spin cycles or makes grinding sounds.

Technical Causes:

• Unbalanced load (common in Nairobi households washing heavy blankets)
• Broken shock absorbers or suspension springs
• Worn-out drum bearings
• Foreign objects stuck between drum and tub

Solution by Refitec:
We realign the machine, replace shock absorbers, springs, and bearings, and remove foreign objects.

Maintenance Tip: Always place your machine on a flat surface and balance heavy laundry items.

5. Washing Machine Leaking Water

Problem:
You notice water pooling under your washer during operation.

Technical Causes:

• Damaged door seal (front-load washers)
• Loose inlet/outlet hose connections
• Cracked drain pump housing
• Blocked detergent drawer

Solution by Refitec:
Our Nairobi washer repair team checks the door gasket, hoses, detergent drawer, and pump housing. Damaged seals and hoses are replaced on-site.

Maintenance Tip: Clean the door seal regularly to prevent mold and avoid harsh detergents that erode rubber.

6. Washing Machine Door Not Opening

Problem:
After the cycle, the door remains locked.

Technical Causes:

• Faulty door lock mechanism
• Water not draining completely (safety feature prevents opening)
• Control board malfunction

Solution by Refitec:
We manually release the door lock, test the door interlock switch, and repair/replace faulty locks or PCB.

Maintenance Tip: Do not force the door open. Always wait 2–5 minutes after the cycle ends.

7. Washing Machine Producing Foul Smell

Problem:
Bad odor coming from inside the drum.

Technical Causes:

• Mold and bacteria buildup in the drum or detergent drawer
• Stagnant water in hidden parts of the machine
• Using too much detergent (soap residue breeds bacteria)

Solution by Refitec:
We perform a deep drum cleaning, sanitize detergent compartments, and run hot water cycles with special cleaning agents.

Maintenance Tip: Keep the door slightly open after washing to allow airflow and clean with vinegar once a month.

8. Washing Machine Error Codes (E1, E2, F01, etc.)

Problem:
Modern washers show error codes on the digital panel.

Technical Causes:

• E1: Water supply issue
• E2: Drainage failure
• F01: PCB malfunction
• LE: Motor lock error

Solution by Refitec:
We decode the error messages based on brand, run diagnostics, and replace faulty parts accordingly.

Maintenance Tip: Always refer to your washing machine’s manual, but call professionals for error codes that persist.
