WASHING MACHINE PROBLEMS

STRANGE NOISES

The most common type of washing machine repair is for loud sounds coming from the appliance. Repairmen can uncover the reason of the loud sound and decide whether we should repair or replace the broken appliance parts. The source of the sound is typically due to a worn-down pump motor or worn belt or bearings.

DOESN’T TURN ON

In the event your washer won’t agitate or turn on, check to see if it is unplugged or if a circuit breaker flipped off. The issue might also be due to a broken latch, thermal fuse or timer. A washing machine 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 won’t spin means there’s something wrong with the door latch, wax motor or motor coupling. Jacobs Appliance Repair is able to fix these problems right away and have your washing machine spinning again ASAP!

OVERFLOWING

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

WATER TEMPERATURE ISSUES

A broken temperature control switch or inlet hose is often the reason a washing machine will not produce cold or hot water.

DRYER PROBLEMS

STRANGE NOISES

A very common dryer issue is strange noises coming from the appliance. Broken seals, bearings or worn-down belts can lead to loud noises from dryers.

WILL NOT HEAT

A clothes dryer that does not produce enough heat to dry clothing won’t be very useful. The cause of the problem is either a broken high-limit thermostat, heating element or cycling thermostat. The same parts sometimes cause a dryer to be too hot too. Our technician will troubleshoot the dryer to determine the issue and solution.

WILL NOT TUMBLE OR TURN ON

If your dryer will not turn on, you first will want to be sure the dryer is plugged in and every one of the circuit breakers are on. If the dryer isn’t unplugged and still doesn’t turn on or tumble, the heating element, high limit thermostat or cycling thermostat will need to be repaired or replaced.

WILL NOT SHUT OFF

The opposite problem happens when the dryer won’t turn off. The reason for this particular problem is usually either a broken door switch or timer.

TIMER WILL NOT ADVANCE

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