How to Repair a Washing Machine

Causes of Damage and Repair:

Damage Cause How to Repair

1. The water overflows in the washing cabin, the pump is clogged: The pipe line clamps shrink, replace it with a new one

                                                           

2. Water is too hot or cold: Incorrect selector button settings, Setting back, Setting the water heater wrong, Setting back Thermistor over, Reset or replace with a new one.

3. Discharge of water is very slow: Valve the entrance to the clogged water, open and fix the valve

                                                                                               

4. Clogged suction line: The water filter needs to be cleaned

5. Low water pressure: Fix the pumping machine

6. Water exceeds the limit or too low: Switck water level control is damaged, Repair it by cleaning the rubber membrane

                                                                                

7. Tangled laundry results: Lack of water needs to be added to enough

                                                                                            

8. Pulsator rotation does not work back and forth: the timer turns off next and changes if the timer is broken

                                                                                      

9. The washing machine is trembling hard enough: the bolt fixes on the loose body tighten the loose bolt, replace the new one if it is damaged

10. Washing machines come into contact with other equipment: move to another place

11. The washing machine leg is not a floor meeting: set the adjustment bolt of the washing machine's feet until the whole floor forms

12. The position of the drying cabin is unbalanced: replace the join plastic bearing and join coupling set

13.Drum dryer loose: lift and store it back regularly

14. Laundry printing is not balanced: unload and replace with a new one

Damage to the stator

To find out the damage of the stator and repairs to the stator, check with the steps as:

1. Be aware that there are symptoms of damage to the stator, such as a broken coil, there is a smell of burning components or black color in the coil.

2. Measure the motor current strength using an amperemeter with a 1 ohm scale. If the amperemeter needle does not move, it can be ascertained that there is a broken wire coil. Reconnect disconnected turns, but if there is serious damage to the motor, replace it with a new one or rewind.

If you are going to rewind the number of turns and the diameter of the copper wire used must be the same as the old stator winding. To make it easier to make a twist using a coil winder (conter), then tie each coil with a nylon rope, but even though there are several turns with different diameters between windings must be connected in one strand of copper wire, do not let the parts break.

Gearbox (Speed reducer)

Gearbox or speed reducer is a device that is connected to a motor that serves to reduce the very high rotational speed of the motor. In addition the component gearbox moves the pulsator. If the gearbox is damaged the washing machine cabin will not spin even though the motor rotates normally.

3. Parts-Parts Gearbox

In general, damage to the gearbox is caused by too large laundry loads, lack of water when washing and damage to the gearbox seal so that water enters the gearbox system. Following are the characteristics of gearbok that has been damaged:

1. As Gearbox looks worn

2. His teeth are damaged or broken

3. The pulsator does not rotate or the rotation is weak

4. There is noise coming from the gearbox when operating the washing machine

5. The seal on the gearbox is damaged or broken

The following steps to check and repair gearbox damage:

1. Remove the V-belt and pullay from the gearbox

2. Remove the fastening screws on the gearbox

3. Lift the gearbox and watch for the condition

4. Replace the damaged gearbox with the same specifications so that the washing machine can return

work optimally.

Washing Exceeds Capacity

The number of clothes put into the washing machine needs to be adjusted to the capacity of the washing machine. If not, the motor work is too heavy so the motor is hotter (over heating) or can even burn. Ordinary manufacturers have provided the maximum capacity instructions listed on the body of the washing machine.

Tips on how to wash clothes

• Use your hands to wash baby clothes to make them cleaner. Use water, bucket, soft brush, an   so clean
• Separate between clothes that get pup poop, pee, and other dirt.
• Clean clothes that get dirt in the bucket that has been filled with water and given detergent (detergentspecial baby is better).
• Rub wi th a toothbrush or a soft brush to make it clean. If it is clean, remove detergent water.
• After the dirt has been cleaned, it can be combined with clothes that do not get dirt in December containing new detergents. You can also keep it separated so that you do two washing.
• Wash, scrape and squeeze the baby clothes clean.
• You can also wear a softener to make it more fragrant and soft.
• Dry in the sun to dry completely and the remaining germs die. Use a clothesline that forms like octopus to make it easier to dry.
• When ironing baby clothes you should not use lubricants and fragrances for fear of causing skin allergies.
• Store in a clean and closed place, or put in a plastic basket if used frequently.

CONCLUSION

1. Currently there are 3 types of washing machines, namely twin tube or two tubes, front load and top load.

2. Guidelines if you want to buy a washing machine based on capacity and needs

• One person: <5 kg
• Childless couples: 5 kg - 5.5 kg
• Couple with 2 children: 5.5 kg - 6 kg
• Pair with 3-4 children:> 6 kg

3. The placement of the washing machine also affects the durability and durability of the washing machine. Place the washing machine

in the right position, although washing machine work is directly related to water does not mean

the washing machine can survive in a humid place. What if placed in a humid place or

often exposed to water body and machine parts made of metal will be susceptible to rust (corrosion).

4. The most important thing in putting a washing machine is:

•      Place the washing machine in a place that is well-ventilated and tightly closed. Avoid dust, damp and places that allow direct contact with sunlight or rain because it can shorten the life of a washing machine or cause rust.
•       The washing machine is not too attached to the wall and is given a distance of about 10 cm from the wall to reduce the risk of moisture in the back of the washing machine body.
•      The floor must be level because the sloping floor conditions can cause vibration and noise.

The vibration and noise are caused by friction with the washing machine with the floor when the engine is on.
