If the washing machine fills and washes but the drum will not spin the problem may be caused by a drainage fault, unbalanced load, door-lock problem, drive-system fault, motor problem or electronic control problem. Smart Appliance Center CC will diagnose the problem and advise the best course of action.

Our Washing Machine Not Spinning Repair Service

Smart Appliance Centre will diagnose the reasons why your washing machine isn’t spinning and repair the underlying fault where possible. We identify the root cause, rather than simply replacing parts based on the symptom.

Our technicians can investigate and repair

Washing machines that do not spin at all
Washing machines that spin intermittently
Slow or weak spinning
Machines that stop before the spin cycle
Machines that leave clothes soaking wet
Drainage-related spinning problems
Drive-system problems
Motor-related faults
Door-lock and interlock problems
Washing machine error codes
control faults

Our Original Take on Repair One of the best clues to the diagnosis is what happens just before the machine refuses to spin. First check the drainage if any water remains in the drum. If it drains OK, but the drum never turns, the technician can move the diagnosis to the drive system, motor, door interlock or controls. This symptom-first approach allows you to differentiate a spin-cycle problem from a more general washing machine failure.
