Miele W830 / W820 machine not commencing cycle (ie filling) on some Program Settings

G'day Folks

I have Miele W830 (same as a W820 in Europe though unsure of the US equiv.) Washing Machine that's approximately 17 years old and is now not starting it's cycle (ie does not commence filling) on some Program Settings, but is ok on others. The machine starts correctly in the following positions:

- In the 'Cottons' programs the 70,80&90 deg C positions work (not 30,40,50&60)
- In the 'Minimum Iron' programs the 40,50&60 work (not 30)
- In the 'Delicates' programs only the Cold works (not 30,40,50&60)
- In the 'Woolens' programs only 40 works (not Cold & 30)
- None of Starch, Spin, Drain & Quick Wash programs work

They didn't all fail simultaneously & there seemed to be some indeterminacy when the failures began to occur (a few months ago).

I have taken out the electronic control module (from behind the front panel) & cleaned the selector switch contacts with Deoxit (though you can't get to the inside of the switch the spray would have penetrated) & have buzzed the contacts which seem ok. I'm assuming the problem is with this selector/control module, but the failure mode does seem odd.

Has anyone got any ideas on fault finding to help narrow the problem down? – I know there's another larger PCB behind the front section as I opened it up a few years ago to change the shocks. Is there a service manual out there somewhere?

Thanks in advance
Gavin

Bad sounds from my Kenmore front load HE3T

Washer has worked flawlessly since purchase approximately 11 years ago. No the barrel seems to wobble and sounds like it is about to blow apart due to spin cycle sounding unbalanced. Can anyone identify the probable issue and remedy? It looks like the actual Model number is #110.44921301

WM2050CW LG Washer - Can turn screw on back panel of washer

I'm trying to replace the shock absorber on my LG front loader. Well, I didn't get very far. I can't seem to turn the screws on the back panel. The Phillips screwdriver fits into the screw just fine but it won't turn. Tried it with 3 of them. What am I doing wrong? Time to call a professional?

Maytag 2000 series front load washer

Good day guys,
Over last few months, we had a couple wash cycles finish with clothes still wet as if the high speed spin didn't kick in.
But this has only happened a hand full of times over the a total of 60-100 cycles. I noticed I have a scraping noise
coming from my washer when I spin the tub ( by hand) and thinking it was going to be the bearings.
I took machine apart and when I did, I noticed the noise was coming from around the drive motor. When I took the belt off,
the noise pretty much diminished. When I put belt back on the noise starts again. Belt seems to be in good shape,
but it is six years old. Is this the belt making the noise or is this the drive motor beginning to go bad. When I spin motor
by hand its pretty quiet when belt is off, when belt is on.. not so much. Thank-You

Front Loader Door Won't latch

My Maytag Front Load Neptune Model# MAH6700AWW will not latch, it is giving a DS code, had to slam the door quite hard for the last few years, and also the machine stopped running just before that and is buzzing with a ND code, after reading Jake's reply (thank you for the helpful info) to another member it sounds like it is the drain pump might be stuck.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
Andy

What is this?

Can someone identify this part please? I have a matching dryer that the part could be from, but I doubt it. I'm not even 100% certain it's off our washer, but it sure looks suspicious. The design looks like it hooks to something and the spring applies tension to possibly seal something. I am suspect of it because the bottom of the washer is exposed. Any help would be appreciated. This thing is not even 2 years old.

Thanks

ADMIN- Maybe move this to the Maytag section? Sorry if I messed that up.

Roper Washer weak agitator

My Roper Wash Model# RTW4340SQ0 agitator motion is week. It seems to agitate slow as it moves around the tub in the wash cycle. It moves back and forth but only slightly. The top portion of the agitator is working properly. Last August I replaced the following parts: Clutch Part#285785, Drive Block part# 389140, Agitator Repair Kit (dogs) part # 80040.

The Dogs are in good shape. The drive block looks good but I was able to tighten it up some. The clutch hasn't been inspected as of yet, but the machine runs through all the cycle properly spin, drain, etc.

I pulled the agitator and the splines look ok however I can't get my hand inside it to feel the splines. I ran a screw driver over them and they seem rigid. The transmission shaft turns back and forth without the agitator on it. However with the agitator on the shaft and a small cycle load in the washer I was able to place a tool against the agitator while it was running and the agitator stops but I can hear the transmission moving.

My question is the transmission suppose to stop agitating when it gets put in a bind or should it have kept agitating? Could I have a stripped transmission? Or is there something else I need to check?
Thanks, all help is welcomed.

Maytag Bravos XL drive shaft stuck

So I have a Maytag Bravos XL. The bearing went out. Easy fix I thought. I ordered the kit and started the repair.
I can't for the life of me pound out the drive shaft from the tub. I've check and double checked. It's should come out. I tried letting some WD40 soak on it an still won't budge. Has anyone ever had this issue or know a way to get this super stuck shaft out? Right now my laundry room is a mess of parts and I'd like to get this fixed asap.

WF364BVBGWR Samsung washer not getting water, no error codes

I'm getting some strange behavior with my Samsung front load washer. Yesterday we did a load in it, checked the clothes and they were perfectly dry, the washer went through it's entire cycle with no water and no error codes.

I tried restarting it, you could hear the pump start for a few seconds, then stop and the washer would start it's cycle as if nothing was wrong. I cleaned the filter on the bottom front, even thought I had recently done it, but it was unobstructed and it made no difference. Then I moved the drain hose up and down a couple of times and could hear water gurgling and the hose felt heavy. I tried starting it again and away it went, filled with water and did the load, there was no water left at the end of the cycle so it drained ok.

The next load I had to go through the same exercise, wiggling the drain hose seemed to free something up and it would fill with water, if I didn't the pump would go on for a few seconds, but pump no water, and the washer would continue on as if normal, again no error codes show up.

I thought if there was a drainage block it would give an error code of some sort, and/or not drain properly. I just ran an empty cycle and had to do the same drain hose routine to get it to fill, it ran its cycle and finished with no issues.


Any ideas what is wrong and how to fix?


thanks in advance

Whirlpool making noises during spin - tub creaks if rotated manually

Hi all,
purchased this washer new from Sears in September 2013, recently during the spin cycles it makes a really loud squeaking sort of noise and then as the drum comes to a slow stop it makes a creaking noise. it only happens during the spin cycles. during the wash cycles the agitator is nice and quite and runs normal - the entire wash cycle completes Ok and clothes are washed. When empty, if I manually rotate the agitator it makes a creaking noise at every full turn or so.

Here is a link of what the washer sounds like during high speed:

Any ideas would be appreciated - Thanks!

Frigidaire Affinity Washer not draining/pausing mid-cycle

So I've already been a few rounds with this washer and am prepared for another LAST battle here. After replacing the main control panel, the water intake and the latch striker, I'm again faced with issues.

This time, the cycle stops midway through. And it seems as though it's at the point when it's about to go through its spin cycle. At first, it just paused for a while and would eventually spin. But now it seems as though it's stopped all that and just isn't functioning.

My first inclination given what I've read is that it's got a clogged drain. When I put it on spin cycle, I hear a hum...the water doesn't drain...the spin cycle doesn't start. But now I'm thinking maybe it's the drain pump. But maybe that hum is the pump simply not being able to pull water through the clog?

Now given the giant pain in the ass that it looks to be to replace this drain pump...or even get at the drain, I figured I'd ask around to see if anyone has any other thoughts as to what this might be as I slowly start to dismantle it. Or even better, if there's an easy way to get to said drain/ drain pump that doesn't involve removing the dryer that is on top of this machine, dismantling the front of it, and, well, the rest of the process to get at this area, which looks to be a pain in the ass so large that I'm already wanting to use this washer as a sparring partner.

Someone please. Help me prevent the swelling of my knuckles. I'm too old for this.

Maytag bravos x basket wont spin f7 e1

Hello, I have a Maytag bravos X washer model number MVWX700XL2 that won't spin. Codes f7 and e1 stored. Basket will not spin freely. Was able to agitate during manual test mode. Lid lock works properly. I ohmed shift actuator- 2456 ohms. Belt is OK. Feels like basket is jammed. Removed agitator and basket found no obstructions. Before this condition noticed on spin cycle very noisy. Similar to bad bearing. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I think it's the gearbox/transmission but not 100%. Thank you

WM2050CW LG front loader out of balance

I recently purchased a used WM2050CW front loader. The tub frequently wobbles during the wash cycle. When it's really bad there is a noise. If I pause it and pull some of the clothes forward, that helps. But I have to do this over and over (or fear the washer is being damaged). Can I ignore this, fix it for a reasonable price, or did I buy a piece of junk? I generally do small loads.

LG Washer WM2250CW, GFCI trips

Located in the garage plugged into a dedicated circuit with one AC outlet and a GFCI outlet nearby, but in the same circuit, and worked for a couple of years until recently when the GFCI started to trip. Now, that I plug the unit in the GFCI trips. I replaced the GFCI put a 20 AMP. However, if I connect the washer via an extension cord in the living room outlet the unit works. Any Electricians out there??

Kenmore washer, not sure model, first time poster

Hey guys first time posting, I've got a kenmore top loading washer that doesn't seem to spin or agitate? I feel like it does both sometimes, but generally it doesn't work. The not spinning was what I first noticed because the clothes would come out wet, however if I ran it on a drain/spin cycle it would end up spinning, but not as well as it used to. That still seems to work, however I washed some towels and noticed they hadn't even been unfolded from how they were put in the washing machine. I decided to wash them again, and when it started to wash I went to look and the lock wasn't on which I had not seen before. So I took a peak inside and it was making noise but not agitating at all. Any idea whats going on? I have a video and will upload in just a second

Thanks!
