10 reasons why the indesit washing machine does not drain water

No household appliance, even the most modern, is insured against breakdowns ✔. Its performance is affected by age, operating conditions and the quality of parts used during assembly. Therefore, if the Indesit washing machine does not spin or drain the water, there is no need to perceive this as a tragedy. Each breakdown has its own reasons. Knowing them, you can fix the problem yourself, saving a considerable amount on the services of specialists. The washing machine has a simple device; if you do everything correctly, fixing the problem will not take much time and effort.

Problems in the control unit

The electronic module of the Indesit washing machine is a small computer that controls all devices.
With its help, the variety of modes inherent in modern machines is realized. In the current approaches of car manufacturers, if a module breaks down, it changes. Repair is not provided. It should be noted that in our country there are professionals who repair these devices. There are not many of them, and they prefer to work with masters. You can diagnose the malfunction as follows - if you have excluded all the above reasons for the lack of spin, then the problem is in the control module.

Indesit washing machine control module

There are many reasons why the Indesit washing machine does not spin clothes. And some of them can only be identified by a repairman. Therefore, if you are unsure of your own abilities, then invite a specialist.

Causes

Let's consider the sources of lack of spin:

• the program options are set incorrectly;
• exceeding the permissible weight of the laundry;
• imbalance in the drum;
• the drive belt is stretched;
• the drain pump is faulty;

• the pressure switch has failed;
• tachometer is broken;
• short circuit in the motor winding;
• the brushes are worn out;
• failure of the electronic control module.

Let's look at each reason in more detail.

How to check faults yourself

Filter check

A drain hose is installed next to the filter.

If you remove the cap from it, you can carefully drain all the water. Next, unscrew the filter and look inside, assessing the state of its clogging

Sometimes it is enough to clean it, remove accumulated debris from it, and try to start spinning on the machine and start draining.

If you plan to drain water from the tank, do not open the hatch. Otherwise, the flow of water will be spontaneous and the apartment can be flooded. It is for this reason that to drain the water yourself, you must use a drain hose, checking its condition.

A filter that is clogged or blocked by a coin or other objects is blocking the drainage of water. This is usually the cause of the problem. It is advisable to carry out cleaning activities regularly to avoid unwanted problems.

Pump performance

The pump may behave strangely. It usually makes strange sounds when it is clogged with threads or has accumulated lint. This often happens with Atlant washing machines that are used intensively over a long period of time.

The ideal option is to disassemble the pump and carefully inspect it. If threads are wound on the shaft, it must be cleaned. After this, you need to assemble the washing machine to find out the functionality of the pump and the functioning of the drain.

You can also carry out diagnostics using a multimeter. However, it is advisable to entrust such a responsible procedure to professionals.

It is important to understand that the pump is a sensitive part. If it breaks soon, numerous failures will occur

Checking the condition of the wires

If there is no voltage on the pump being used, determine the cause of this malfunction. This is usually due to broken electronic parts or broken wires. You can only check the wires in Atlanta yourself. Electronics repairs should be left to professionals.

Invalid program

Some washing machines have a special spin-free mode. Applicable when selecting the following programs: wool, silk, down jacket or gentle wash. These modes may vary depending on the model. Therefore, it is necessary to study the instructions for your sample, in particular, the description of the programs. In advanced brands, the drum rotation speed can be independently adjusted. And for example, turn off push-ups, as in the photo below.

Control Panel

This situation is not related to the breakdown of your assistant, but is a consequence of haste or inattention.

Prevention recommendations

The lion's share of problems can be easily avoided by following simple recommendations for operating washing machines:

• Before washing, check your clothing pockets to ensure there is nothing in them. You even need to get store receipts. Do not allow the grinding and crackling of foreign objects to come from the drum.
• Do not fill the drum with clothes to capacity. It is better to wash clothes twice;
• It is better to wash bras in a special bag - a flying bone can damage the impeller;
• Do not pour too much powder into the tray, as it may become clogged. Lumps of powder settle on the walls of the pipe, and the drain hole narrows because of this. The problem may cause water to begin to accumulate in the air conditioner compartment.
• Buy a surge protector and connect the device through it. This will help prevent the consequences of voltage surges;
• Occasionally clean the machine parts to remove hair, foreign objects and debris. This can also help in cases where the machine is making a lot of noise.

Calling a master: where to find and how much to pay?

If it is impossible to carry out diagnostics and repairs yourself, you must call a specialist. It is better to search for a company that repairs household appliances on the Internet.

The companies' websites have contact information and prices. You can read reviews about companies on the Internet. Firms that have been operating in the market for a long time are fighting for their reputation.

The cost of work depends on the company’s pricing policy and the complexity of the breakdown.

Average prices are:

• changing the drive belt – from 900 rubles;
• replacement of motor brushes – from 1,400 rubles;
• replacement of tachometer – from 2,100 rubles;
• engine replacement or repair – from 2,000 rubles;
• repair of the control unit – from 2,000 rubles;
• replacement of heating elements - from 1,400 rubles;
• repair of the pressure switch - from 1,600 rubles;
• replacement of a temperature sensor – from 1,300 rubles, etc.

It should be borne in mind that the cost of work does not include the price of new parts if replacement is required. If a new part that needs to be installed instead of a worn one is already in stock, this must be reported to the dispatcher accepting the order.

Contacting random repairmen whose phone numbers were found through an ad may result in poor-quality repairs. In addition, there is a chance of falling for scammers who will carry out the work negligently. After the repair work is carried out, the company representative gives a guarantee.

A lot of important and useful information about repairing Indesit washing machines is presented in this section

Drive belt stretched

On a new car this is unlikely. But if your washer is more than 7 years old, the belt may stretch. This problem will resolve itself. To do this, remove the back cover and try to twist the belt along the axis. If more than 3 revolutions can be completed, replacement is necessary.

A stretched belt washes clothes without any problems, but slips in the spin mode - there is not enough traction with the drum pulley or the motor shaft.

Drive belt

Call the master

If you can’t diagnose LG SMA yourself, you can always call a specialist for repairs. It is advisable to contact companies that have been on the market for providing services for several months and have a decent reputation.

It is not difficult to find such a company on the Internet by additionally entering the name of your city in the search. You can contact the company by phone listed on the website or by leaving your contact information for the manager to contact. After eliminating the malfunction, the master gives a guarantee for the work performed.

The average cost of services in Moscow is:

• repair of damaged wiring – from 2,000 rubles;
• repair of the control module – from 2,600 rubles;
• replacement of the drain pump – from 2,100 rubles;
• blockage in the drainage tract - about 1,500 rubles.

The cost of work may vary by region and even vary widely within the same city.

How to protect your washing machine from blockages?

Most often, washing equipment refuses to drain water and spin clothes due to a clog in the filtration system.

First you need to understand that there are two types of blockage:

• mechanical. The cause of this type of blockage is the presence of dangerous small objects in the drum, which subsequently end up in the drain. These can be small coins, seeds, nuts, buttons, fasteners, decorative items of clothing, bra underwires, badges, toothpicks, matches, toys and other small items from pockets;
• natural. This type of clogging occurs as a result of long-term accumulation of lint, hair, threads, animal hair, cotton wool or fluff from clothing in the filtration system. These items lead to a complete blockage of the drain system, due to which the equipment may completely stop functioning.

In order to prevent unpleasant consequences in the operation of equipment, you need to follow a number of simple rules:

• always check the contents of your pockets for small items;
• use special bags, covers or containers for washing;
• completely fasten all fasteners, buttons and clasps on clothes before putting them into the drum;
• Carry out preventative cleaning of the filtration system every couple of months.

Indesit is a brand of washing machines that meets many customer needs, has a decent set of functions and has an affordable price, but is considered not very reliable. The last factor directly depends only on compliance with operating rules.

You need to carefully monitor household appliances, pay attention to alarm signals and promptly clean the garbage filter. Then questions about draining water and spinning clothes in the Indesit washing machine will no longer arise.

Options for removing liquid from the tank

If the automatic machine does not respond to any user commands, then it will not be possible to drain the water using a special program. There are several ways to manually empty the tank. It is necessary to evaluate the situation and choose the preferred method. Main options for forced drainage:

• through the drain hose, without activating the pump;
• unscrewing the waste filter plug;
• opening the hatch door of the washing machine;
• by disconnecting the drain pipe.

Regardless of the nature of the problems that occurred in the system, you can use any of the listed methods. Each draining method requires certain preparation. Let's look at what actions will have to be taken when choosing one or another option for removing liquid from the unit.

Electrical wiring fault

The washing machine is a heavy and powerful piece of equipment. All its parts, components and mechanisms are subject to increased loads during operation. These include strong vibration, temperature changes and high power consumed by the heating element and electric motor. All this can affect the electrical wiring of the product.

Both during washing and in between work, the following malfunctions may occur:

1. Short circuit in the cable. Occurs as a result of a manufacturing defect or in places of inflection. Poor quality or old wiring overheats, the insulation melts, the wires come into contact - short circuit and shutdown of the equipment.
2. Loosening contacts. In the machine they are made with bolts and nuts. Due to shaking and vibration during spinning, the connections loosen, unscrew and fall off. The danger of this phenomenon is that the released wire may touch a metal part of the device.
3. Oxidation of wires. SMA is installed in bathrooms and kitchens. These are rooms with high humidity. Steam settles on the contacts, which oxidize, causing metal corrosion, leading to the formation of rust. Over time, contact disappears completely.
4. Defective plug or socket. A circuit break occurs due to wires falling off the contacts or loose terminals.

All of the above faults can be easily fixed with your own hands. To carry out repairs, there is no need to drain the water from the tank, since all electrical communications are located under the casing. The defect is detected visually or using a tester. After this, the wiring is replaced or the contacts are tightened. It is advisable to replace plugs and sockets with rusty or charred terminals.

If the sunroof lock light is blinking

One of the common problems is the door lock lamp blinking. At this time, the machine may not start, work or stop in the middle of the cycle, the door cannot be opened.

This problem can happen for several reasons:

• the tamper protection function is activated (parents often turn on the Child Lock mode to protect the device from curious kids who may accidentally mess up the program settings);
• no water flows into the machine;
• the hatch door is not completely closed;
• failure in the control program (this problem usually occurs due to power outages or power surges);
• the door lock does not work;
• The heating element is faulty (with this breakdown, the machine continues to operate, only washing takes place in cold water).

Each of the listed reasons causes the door lock indicator, next to which an open lock is drawn, to light up and go out.

Preventive actions

In order to prevent damage to a Zanussi washing machine or another model, you need to follow a number of recommendations when using this equipment.

First of all, it is important to check the contents of the pockets of dirty clothes that are loaded into the drum of the machine. Small and larger parts can get inside, which leads to disruption of the washing equipment.

If there are small children in the family, you need to make sure that they do not throw small toys into the drum or powder container.

Do not exceed the permissible weight of the clothes loaded into the drum. This leads to breakdown of machine parts, as a result of which water stops draining.

The operating instructions indicate the permissible weight of clothes for washing, which is important to adhere to. Also, for the washing process you should choose high-quality powder for automatic machines.

A properly selected product will contribute to a long service life of the washing machine, proper draining and spinning functions. Professionals recommend giving preference to liquid washing gels because they cause less harm to equipment without affecting the cleanliness of washed laundry. Also, the service life depends on the quality of the water. With hard water, the machine will quickly fail.

It is recommended to use a surge protector to protect your washing machine from high electrical voltage surges. This will prevent internal parts and wires from burning. It is better to leave repair work to professional craftsmen, because independently intervening inside the equipment without special skills will only complicate the situation.

If the breakdown is more complex than a clogged filtration system, then it is not recommended to experiment with deeper repairs. If you follow preventive measures, the washing unit will last a long time, maintaining proper spinning and water drainage.

Features of the Indesit washing machine

The Indesit range of washing machines includes both full-size and very compact devices. The machines are available with front and vertical loading. The products are equipped with a large or small display, which makes it convenient to monitor the progress of the wash and select the necessary functions. In models without a display, its function is performed by light indicators located above the buttons.

Over time, even the most reliable equipment can break down, and having it repaired by professionals is expensive. The owner can independently determine the cause of the malfunction of the Indesit machine and eliminate simple breakdowns.

The disadvantages of this company's products include the fact that many problems cannot be solved without contacting a service center.

Diagnosis of Indesit washing machine errors

It should be borne in mind that the absence of drainage during operation of the washing machine does not always indicate a serious breakdown. This may be an easily fixable failure , which will not be difficult to cope with.

When stopping the cycle without draining, it is necessary to sequentially analyze the situation and study the condition of the nodes involved in the water discharge process. You can start with the simplest and, according to statistics, more frequent problems, gradually moving on to more complex ones.

Some wash programs include a water stop. If the user selects this washing mode, then stopping is not a failure, this is a normal situation.

Most often, stopping without draining occurs in the following modes:

If a fault code appears on the display, it should be analyzed as it indicates the cause of the problem. Based on this information, you should check the functionality of the nodes:

1. 
   Codes F05 and F11 may indicate a pump malfunction.

2. A problem with the control module is often indicated by codes F09 or F18.
3. A failure of the pressure switch can be signaled by code F04.
4. Problems with the electrical system and drain pump contacts are indicated by code F05 and code F11.
5. Drain filter clogged.
6. Installation and connection of an Indesit washing machine with irregularities (kinked drain hose, incorrect installation, etc.).
7. Clogged sewer system.

In addition to the listed node failures, a one-time failure in the operation of the equipment is possible, which will not recur after a reboot and is caused by a random combination of circumstances.

Solution

By gradually checking all Atlas nodes that are involved in the water drainage system, you can determine the place that needs increased attention - cleaning or repair.

The sewer is clogged

Sewage problems are not uncommon. In this case, the device is simply unable to remove water.

You can simply determine the problem - pull out the end of the drain hose, which is connected to the sewer, and throw it into the bathtub or sink.

If water flows, then the cause of the problem is a clog in the drainage system of the apartment itself. The solution to the problem is to call a plumber or clean the drain yourself.

User error

The Atlant washing machine allows you to set washing modes without draining. If these settings were chosen, then the remaining water in the tank after the cycle is completed is a normal situation.

You can check if this is the case by selecting “drain”. If the water begins to drain, then the situation does not require additional intervention.

Kink/squeezing of the drain hose

Another possible problem for which the user himself is to blame is a careless attitude to the supply of communications. The drain hose in the Atlant washing machine is quite strong, but if it is accidentally bent or squeezed when moving furniture, the passage may be impaired. It is necessary to check the condition of the hose along its entire length: from the device to the insert into the sewer.

If there are places where there is bending or compression, this must be corrected. If there is visible damage, the hose may even have to be replaced with a new one. The part cannot be repaired.

The drain filter is clogged

The drain system filter is a unit that should be cleaned regularly. It is designed to catch small debris from waste water that accidentally fell into the drum and further into the tank - scraps of thread, torn buttons, coins, paper clips, etc. It is accessed from the front of the Atlant washing machine below.

To clean, you need to open the door. The filter is a purely mechanical unit that has no contact with the electrical circuit. To clean it, carefully turn it to the left.

If there is still water left in the drum that has not been drained, it will begin to flow directly onto the floor under the washing machine. To avoid a flood, you need to prepare rags and low containers in advance to collect the leaking liquid.

A filter clogged with debris may be one of the reasons for the lack of drainage. But if after unscrewing it the water does not flow, we may already be talking about a more serious blockage.

The video will show you how to clean the filter in Atlanta:

Pump or pipe clogged

After the Atlanta drain filter has been cleaned, you should proceed to cleaning the pipe and pump. If the fine (and not so fine) suspension is not retained in the filter, it may collect in the pump. And even block the passage of water. To clean the pump and pipe, the washing machine is partially disassembled.

Pump fault

If the pump, which is supposed to drive water through itself and direct it into the sewer, burns out, the drain does not occur. Another possible breakdown is a deteriorated impeller, the blades of which must rotate when water passes through. If a part is broken, it is replaced with a new one.

Control module failure

The control module is the “brain” of the Atlant washing machine. If individual elements burn out, malfunctions are possible precisely with those nodes that are connected to them, including the drainage system. When a burnout occurs, the passage of impulses is disrupted.

This situation requires partial disassembly and removal of the unit for diagnosis and repair. In rare cases it may need to be replaced.

Repair of the control module - on video:

Failure of the water level sensor

If the Atlanta water level sensor fails, it may send unreliable information to the control module or not send any information. This leads to the fact that the control module does not receive a command to drain, and the water remains in the tank.

Wiring violations

If there is a break or poor contact in the wiring that connects the nodes involved in the process of draining waste water from the washing machine, the signals may not pass through or may not always pass through.

In the latter case, the situation becomes unstable, and failure occurs from time to time. The solution to the problem is to analyze the condition of the wiring and carry out repairs.

Clogged filter, siphon or impeller

Often the washing machine does not go into spin mode, water remains in the tank, but the pump continues to work. In this case, it is necessary to inspect the mechanical parts of the unit.

First you need to drain the water from the tank. There are the following methods for this:

1. Turn off the device and wait for the electronic lock to open. Then place a container under the hatch, open the door and pour out the water.
2. Tilt the machine back and lock it in this position. Unscrew the filter from the bottom and all the liquid will drain through the opened hole.

After this, you need to gradually inspect the paths through which the water should leave the tank.

The filter is checked visually for the presence of small items, solid objects, organic or lime deposits. If they are present, they are removed and then washed under a strong stream of water. But you shouldn’t stop at the filter, since the problem may not be isolated.

The next thing to check will be the impeller. It is designed in such a way that it can wind hair and threads not only on the body, but also on the shaft. Cleaning should be continued until the part rotates easily and freely.

If a beating is felt, this means that the bushing is broken.

The product should be replaced with a new one, otherwise it will soon break.

Then you need to check the condition of the siphon. Since there is always dirty water in it, there is a high probability of clogging. You can check the hose by running a stream of water through it from the bathtub tap. Cleaning is carried out with a steel cable or knitting needle after preliminary soaking, but it is easier to replace the part itself.

The unit does not drain water: do-it-yourself washing machine repair

Some washing machine malfunctions can be corrected yourself if you follow certain rules. Let's try to figure out the main problems that the owner of a washing machine may encounter. Among them:

• failure of the pressure switch (water level sensor);
• electrical wiring faults;
• electronics failure;
• pump failure;
• clogged filter or pump impeller;

What to do if the pressure switch fails

First, you need to make sure that it is the pressure switch that has failed. Let's figure out how to check it. To do this, first turn off the power to the washing machine (SM), unscrew the 2 screws from the back that hold the top cover. We remove the top and see a rounded part on the wall to which the hose fits, and several wires. This is a pressure switch.

Now loosen the clamp and remove the hose from the fitting. Instead, install a piece of hose of the same diameter, clamp the clamp and blow into it. You should clearly hear one or three clicks, indicating that the pressure switch has activated. If this does not happen, you will have to replace it.

Electronics failure: is it possible to solve the problem without calling a specialist?

This problem often occurs on SMs with a large number of functions. The set program, without completing the cycle, jumps to another, as a result of which the SM stops. Don't panic, you can solve this problem yourself. First, turn off the unit from the button and wait 15-20 seconds, then turn it on and load the desired program again. If this does not help, and the water remains in the drum again, turn off the machine completely (from the button and from the network) and wait 5-10 minutes. Then we turn it on again, load the program and wait. If the problem recurs, we can say with confidence that the program failure has nothing to do with it. Just in case, if the SM has a self-diagnosis mode, it should be turned on. By displaying an error code on the display, it will tell you why the washing machine does not drain water. All error codes are available in the technical data sheet of the unit.

Damaged electrical wiring: how to identify it yourself

To identify this malfunction, we need a multimeter. We find the pump and unhook the wires from it. Next, we perform the same procedure with the terminals on the board. We set the multimeter to sound resistance - it will be easier, you don’t need to look at the display. We call each wire individually and replace it if necessary.

Pump failure: is it possible to do without replacement?

So, the washing machine does not drain water due to the pump failure. Unfortunately, if the impeller breaks or the pump motor fails, you will not be able to do without a replacement. It’s another matter if threads and hair are wound around the shaft. In this case, we dismantle the pump, first removing the filter, and clean the shaft of foreign objects. Their presence can be determined as follows. We take out the filter, you can see the impeller inside. Let's try to check it out. It should rotate easily, perhaps with slight jerking - this is normal. If the rotation is tight, it means there are foreign objects on the shaft. If it does not rotate at all, it means that the engine is jammed, and such a unit cannot be repaired. You'll have to buy a new one.

Helpful information! It is better to go to the store with an old pump. It is not a fact that there will be a part for your model in stock. In this case, you can choose an analogue from another model - many pumps are the same, even from different manufacturers.

Clogged filter or pump impeller: what actions should be taken

A clogged filter is not a problem at all. To clean it, you need to unscrew the plug (it is located at the bottom of the CM and can be hidden by a decorative hatch), pull out the filter, remove large debris from it and rinse it. But with threads wound around the impeller it is a little more complicated. Here you will have to remove the pump, only after this will you be able to clean the impeller of hair and threads. However, even novice home craftsmen can do this work. The main thing here is attentiveness and accuracy.

The drain in the washing machine does not work for other reasons

If after all the work done there are no changes, and the water still does not drain, most likely the problem is in the electronic module. Here you will not be able to carry out repairs yourself if you do not have the appropriate education. In this case, the only solution is to call a technician to your home or take the SM to a service center.

Helpful information! Transporting an automatic washing machine to a service center is a better decision than searching for a repairman through advertisements. It may happen that a person comes to your home who knows less than you about SM, and learned how to repair them from videos on YouTube.

Checking the correct connection

It is worth understanding that the correct position of the drain hose is above the tank. From the floor to the connection with the siphon or sewer pipe, the distance should vary from 50 to 60 centimeters. This must be taken into account when connecting.

However, it is not possible to check this in all cases due to its inaccessibility. A cabinet or “screen” on the bathroom may interfere.

In this case, you should perform the following algorithm of actions:

1. Start the program (you can quickly wash).
2. Wait until the tank is filled with water.
3. Enable drain mode.
4. As soon as the water begins to decrease, press pause, and if at this moment the water remains at the same level, then the machine is connected correctly.
5. If there is a characteristic sound indicating a drain, or visualization of a decrease in the water level, it is recommended to postpone the wash and seek help from a specialist.

1) Check the drain filter - debris trap

Blockage - in 70% of cases, is the first reason why water stops draining from the washing machine tank. The first step is to clean the filter of debris. These Indesit brand models have very good filters - traps. What doesn't go there: pins, buttons, ear sticks, small laundry.

Where is the filter located?

The filter is usually located in the lower right or left corner of the washing machine. This is a plug with a thread with a diameter of 4 to 6 cm. It is unscrewed counterclockwise. It should be noted that it needs to be cleaned at least once a month. Otherwise, if you unscrew it less often, it will “coke” and you won’t be able to unscrew it. Many users try to turn it with pliers, but this method leads to the filter cracking and becoming unusable. It is better to call a specialist in this case.

Fill valve failure

The fill valve (FV) consists of an electromagnetic coil and a membrane, which opens when voltage is applied to the valve. The electromagnetic coil usually fails. In modern models, Indesit KEN consists of two sections: one section of the valve is responsible for the supply of water during washing, the second - for the supply during rinsing.

* Spare parts are not included in the price and must be paid separately.

Why did it freeze during the washing process?

Reasons that may cause the washing machine to freeze during washing:

Problems with water collection

There are many reasons why this could happen.

The most common of them:

• lack of water in the tap,
• shutting off the water valve,
• pinched or clogged hose,
• dirt getting into the water supply valve or its malfunction,
• control module failure,
• malfunction of the hatch locking device.

All these factors will lead to the equipment freezing at the initial stage of washing. If a blockage is found in the hose or valve, they need to be cleaned. If faulty parts are found, they must be replaced.

Breakdown of the pressure switch

If the water level sensor fails, the control board stops receiving signals and stops the washing process. A broken part must be replaced.

Checking the pressure switch is easy. It is located under the top cover of the washing machine. It needs to be removed, unscrew the bolts holding the part and inspect for blockages.

Then you need to blow into the tube. If you hear a click, the sensor is working. No sound indicates that it needs to be replaced. Read about troubleshooting pressostat failures in this article.

Electric heater malfunction

If the heating element in a washing machine breaks down, it cannot heat the water. The control board is waiting for the liquid inside the drum to reach the desired temperature. Since this cannot happen, the wash stops.

You can understand that the heating element is faulty by error code F08. In addition, the glass will remain cold even though the wash temperature has been set to high.

This situation requires a forced stop of the device and replacement of the electric heater. In Indesit washing machines it is located under the tank. To gain access to it, you must remove the back cover. The heating element is attached to self-tapping screws that are unscrewed. A new part is inserted into the vacated slot.

Instructions for replacing the heating element in a washing machine are presented in this article.

The brushes are worn out

This problem is relevant for commutator engines. Brushes wear out during prolonged or excessive use.

If their length is less than 1 cm, they cease to perform their function. As a result, the drum simply stops rotating during washing.

To restore the operation of the device, it is necessary to dismantle the engine, disassemble it and replace the broken brushes.

Foreign object stuck between tank and drum

A bra wire or other small parts can cause the wash to stop. To understand that the reason for the machine freezing lies precisely in this, a forced stop of the wash and draining the water will help. Then you need to try to spin the drum. If it stands still or turns but with force, it needs to be disassembled.

Violations at the water drainage stage

There may be several reasons:

• clog in the area of ​​the drain filter or pipe,
• pump malfunction,
• failure of the pressure switch or control module.

The blockage is removed by cleaning the parts, and broken components are replaced.

Failure of the control board

It can fail for various reasons, but the most common of them is a voltage drop in the network. If a software failure occurs, the machine will freeze during the washing process.

It is difficult to repair the board yourself. It is better to entrust this work to professionals.

The video will tell you about repairing the control module:

The motor is broken

It may fail during prolonged use or due to water exposure. If the motor burns out, the device will simply stop the wash.

You can repair or replace the motor yourself. It is located at the bottom of the machine. To access it, you need to unscrew the back wall of the case. Further actions depend on the condition of the part.

The pressure switch is broken

Pressostat is a device for determining the water level in a tank. If it fails, the control module cannot determine whether there is water in the tank or not. The spin cycle will not start.

The level sensor needs to be replaced. It must be selected for a specific model. It should be noted that this is a very reliable washing machine mechanism and rarely breaks down. The photo below is shown with a red arrow.
