Electrolux washer playing up!

Electrolux EWF1282 Front loader washer. Timer counts down on the clock but the machine doesn't operate. Makes a humming noise but the cycle won't start even though the clock is counting down. Have tried it on every wash setting.

Remove the top panel, there should only be 2 or 3 screws on the back of the panel, then slide the top panel back about 1/4 inch and it should lift off. Look to see if the belt has come off. Post your results back.

Hello,

Check the drain hose where it goes into the wall, make sure it's only 6 to 10 inches in the standpipe. I have seen this issue countless times.

SOURCE: Our washing machine starts up like it is going to

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France
,
If you have checked that the hot and cold water taps are turned on fully and the hoses are not kinked or squashed at the back, it is worth while checking both the hot and cold water inlet filters. Turn the taps off and remove both hoses at the washer end. Inside each inlet port there is normally a little filter which should just slide out. Clean if necessary and replace each one and the hoses. If after turning the taps back on there is no improvement, the problem is symptomatic of a malfunctioning hot or cold water control valve. Sorry but it needs a service call and a check that it isn't the control PCB ;-0(

If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck,
John C

SOURCE: my electrolux 1320140-63/3 front loader washing machine has stopped working. the timer still starts and counts down but does not start other than to fill with water. any suggestions please

The output from the timer to the motor has failed and so it seems that the timer program controller unit is faulty. You will need to confirm the failure of the output using a multimeter. Also of there is power to the motor, check if the motor is warm or hot . If so the capacitor to the motor can be a suspect. Also failure of the motor winding's or a mechanical jamming cannot be ruled out. check the free movement of the drive.

I am after a picture of the motor wiring on an ewf1282 front load Electrolux washing machine. There is a spare yellow wire which comes from the ECU, but the only place it looks like it will attach to

Good Morning Friend,

I understand that you are looking for a picture of the motor wiring for your Electrolux washer, model# EWF1282. This appears to be an Australian Electrolux dishwasher. I suggest contacting the manufacturer directly. They might be able to get you a picture of the motor wiring. Hope this is helpful.

-Best Regards-

E9F code

Communication problem. Check the wiring between the Main Control Board and the Speed Control Board. Wiring bad, correct wiring problem. Wiring good, replace the Main Control Board. If the problem is not corrected, replace the Speed Control Board. Here is the part you need.

Stopped working mid cycle. The timer still counts down but does not fill, agitate, spin, drain. And before it stopped, the water that was draining out smelled really bad.

The filter on your pump is probably clogged with lint and stuff. You have to remove the bottom front panel, 3 torx screws underneath. The panel will drop and come off. Drain off the excess water from the hose you see. The white filter cover is right in front. Get yourself a bunch of towels or a good big plastic bag to collect water. Unscrew the filter cover and twist the filter out. Clean out all the stuff and put it back in carefully.

Next: You can use Affresh to clean your front loader. Deposits of soap and other such things can be stuck around the inside tub of your washer. Try this product, it works great on all front loaders. Use quite hot water with the Affresh pellet with no clothes and run the machine through a cycle. Also helps with any stagnant water smells. Have you cleaned out your pump lately. Put the pellet inside the machine, not in the soap dispenser.
Pl give me a good rating for the free help, thanks.
