WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

LOUD NOISES

The most reoccurring type of washer repair is for loud noises coming out of the washer. Technicians is able to diagnose the reason of the strange sound and decide if we will need to repair or replace the broken appliance parts in the washing machine. The cause of the noise is usually because of a broken pump motor or worn-out belt or bearings.

WON’T AGITATE

In the event your washing machine won’t turn on, first take a look to see if it is not plugged in or if a circuit breaker is flipped off. The issue could also be from a broken door latch, timer or thermal fuse. A washer that does not turn on or agitate means the cogs, drive belt, coupler or transmission need repair or need replacement.

DOES NOT SPIN

A washing machine that does not spin means there’s a problem with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. Albany Appliance Repair can fix these problems fast and have your washer spinning again ASAP!

OVERFLOWING

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

NO HOT OR COLD WATER

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

DRYER PROBLEMS

LOUD SOUNDS

The most common dryer problem is strange noises coming out of the appliance. Broken bearings, seals or worn-down belts often lead to loud sounds from dryers.

DOES NOT DRY

A dryer that won’t produce enough heat to dry clothing won’t be very useful. The cause of the problem is likely a broken high-limit thermostat, heating element or cycling thermostat. These same parts can also cause a dryer to be too hot too. The repairman will troubleshoot the machine to determine the issue and solution.

WILL NOT TURN ON OR TUMBLE

When your dryer will not turn on, you want to be sure the dryer is plugged in and that all of the circuit breakers are on. If the dryer is plugged in and still will not turn on or tumble, the heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat will likely need to be repaired or replaced.

WILL NOT TURN OFF

The exact opposite problem happens when the dryer will not turn off. The reason for this problem is either a broken timer or door switch.

TIMER DOES NOT ADVANCE

A dryer timer is required to advance in order to complete the drying cycle. If the timer will not advance, it might mean there is a broken cycling thermostat or timer motor.
