Frequently asked questions for washing machine repairs

  • 1. My clothes are still soaking wet after the spin cycle. What's the problem?

    • The Load is Unbalanced:  if there are too many heavy items on one side of the tub can cause this. Smaller loads are always best. Redistribute the laundry and try the spin cycle again.
    • Drain Pump is Clogged: Lint, coins, or other small objects make their way into the drain pump. Carefully remove the access panel (refer to your owner's manual) and clear the clog. Its important to unplug your washing machine before you take this next step 
    • Worn-out Drive Belt: Older machines use a belt to spin the drum. If it's broken or loose, it needs replacing. This often involves more complex disassembly – time to call

  • 3. why wont my washing machine fill with water?

    Washing machine service centre near you in Durban 

    • Check Your Water Supply: Are both the hot and cold water valves behind the machine fully open? A kinked supply hose can also restrict flow.
    • Inspect the Inlet Screens: Where the hoses attach to your washer, there are small mesh screens. Clear out any debris, such as rust or mineral buildup, clogging them.
    • Faulty Inlet Valve: This valve controls incoming water. If the screens are clear, the valve itself may be faulty. Replacing this part is a bit trickier – consider calling the pros at Smart appliance centre 
  • 4. what causes my washing machine not to drain?

    Appliance repairs Durban 

    • Pump Clog, : Same as the issue with the spin cycle - clear out any obstructions within the pump.
    • Kinked Drain Hose: Straighten out any kinks in the hose running from your washer to the drain.
    • Drain Line Blockage: A clog further down your drain line might be the culprit. Call a plumber if you suspect this issue, but your friendly technicians at Smart appliance centre  can often lend a hand as well.
  • 5. why is my washing machine leaking?

    • Worn door seal (for front-loaders)
    • Clogged or cracked drain hose•Loose water supply connection
