If the door is not locking properly the machine will not start. Try pressing the door closed firmly and if it still does not start its problem for the landlord.
Washing machine stops at the spin cycle - light flashes. Have to drain water out manually. Happened last week and was then able to run an empty rinse cycle. Machine worked normally for another week. Same problem today but have had to drain water manually from the drum after trying an empty 90 wash and rinse cycle (both stopped on the Spin and flashed). Any ideas? Thanks. x
The first thing I would check would be the screens located where the washer hoses connect to the machine . Shut off the water and carefully uscrew the hoses. You may get a little water leaking from the hoses when you unscrew them but that should stop shortly. After removing the hoses inspect the screens located where the hoses were connected they can get plugged with sediment and can slow or stop the flow of water into the washer. Clean them off with a small brush( an old toothbrush works) . Before reattaching the hoses run some water out of them into a pail to flush any remaining dirt or sediment that may be in them. Reattach the hose and see if that works. If it still wont fill it may be a faulty solonoid valve. To replace this I recommend a appliance repairman.
Problem: Bosch Classixx WVF 240S Front Load Washer/Dyer... Won't spin.Solution:Recently I had problems with both washer and dryer and I decided to fix them myself.. I did this successfully..My washer had leaking pump..The dryer wouldn't heat..I did the following.. I went to Google and typed in the Make and Model number. I found some info on the Maytag units so I began a note pad on what I was finding.. I would recommend that you do the same...I found the following: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wlMoT9rgvAgThe information may prove to help you but sometimes calling the repairman may be the best solution. I listened to a couple of videos on the Bosch and did not feel that I would rely on the information.In your case I would go to the dealer and ask him what are the most common causes of a Bosch that won't spin.Next I would ask if they have a manual to DIY as I would like to repair this myself.Asking these questions from the parts department is also useful if I didn't get plausible answers. I also found the following on Fixya:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqGWjxzY-twThese machines have a level of complexity. I trained repairman is best. If you are very mechanically inclined you may be able to figure it out, order the parts, get a DIY manual (usually availble online through manufacurer), and have fun learning... That is what I did..I fixed them both and saved a few hundred dollars at the same time learned that I could do it (that is valuable to me)..I hope this helps you,cmilton111
This is
almost certainly a simple problem with your empty pump filter being clogged.
The empty cycle is timed and if it can't get all the water out in time because
the filter is blocked and slowing the empty down, then it will fail safe and
won't step on to the final spin cycle with excess water in the drum. While it's
trying to get the water evacuated, you will probably see the machine doing a
slow tumble for up to 8 minutes and you may also hear the empty pump running
too.You need to
locate and clean the filter. Depending on the model (not familiar which with
the model you mention) there is probably a round filter cap on the front of the
machine at the bottom (It may be behind a small door or hidden behind a clip on
panel on the bottom) Many models of this design also have a small hose to the
right of the filter cap that you can pull out, remove a plug from and drain off
any water in the filter before you remove the filter and get your floor wet, so
take a look for this before you remove the filter and get soaked.
If it is not draining the water, then either the pump is faulty, or there is a blockage in the outlet hose from the pump, or possibly a blockage in the hose from the drum to the pump.
If a fuse blows.....the worst thing to do is to just replace it! A person who understands the electronic and electrical complexities of your machine should be hired to check it out. Better to find out if it is worth fixing first.
