Washing machines, like any other type of equipment, tend to break down. As a rule, such malfunctions take us by surprise. So you threw the laundry into the washer, poured in the powder, closed the door and turned on the program. And the washing machine does not draw water or draws water, but slowly, what to do in such a situation? We will tell you about the causes and how to fix this problem. And the first thing we would like to recommend to you is not to panic!
If you notice that no water is being drawn into the washing machine, then you need to stop the washing program and turn off the power by pulling it out of the socket. See below for possible causes of failure.
The washing machine does not draw water well - reasons
If the washing machine draws water, but very slowly, then the reasons for this may be different. Also, the reasons that relate to this behavior of the machine can also serve as a complete cessation of the water supply. Those. If your machine does not draw water at all, then see also these reasons:
Weak water pressure
If water flows slowly into the washing machine, then check the water pressure from the tap. Maybe he's just weak. Also check the water inlet to the washing machine, it may not be fully open. If everything is in order, and the water still does not enter the washing machine well, then read on.
Inlet valve filter clogged
In front of the inlet valve there is a filter, which is a fine mesh. It is needed to trap large particles that are present in the water. Over time, this filter becomes clogged and the washer does not draw water well.In order to rule out this option, clean the inlet filter. Read on our website how to do it.
If the machine did not draw water well precisely because of this malfunction, then the problem is easily solved. If the filter is not cleaned in time, then over time it will completely clog, and the machine will stop letting water through at all.
Also, the cause may be a blockage of the additional water filter for washing machine, which you can have installed in front of the inlet hose. if you have one, then check it out.
The washing machine does not draw water at all - reasons
If you start washing machine if you select a washing program, and water does not enter the washing machine at all, then any of the following breakdowns is possible here. Check the machine for them in order to determine the exact cause.
The water supply to the washing machine is closed
The first thing to check is to see if the water supply tap to the washing machine is open. Usually it is placed in the place where the rubber hose from the washer is connected to the pipeline. Here's what it looks like:
The faucet is in the open position in the photo, make sure yours is also open. To do this, the lever that opens the tap must be located in the direction of water movement, i.e. along the hose.
No water or low pressure
The first and most banal situation is when there is simply no water in the tap. In our country, this, unfortunately, happens very often.Therefore, if you notice that water does not enter the washer, then in order to eliminate this cause, open the water tap. If there is no water, or the pressure is too low, then consider that the reason has been established.
To solve it, you need to call your housing office and find out the causes and timing of troubleshooting. In any case, you will have to wait for them to fix everything and only after that continue washing.
Loading door not closed
The washing machine has a lot of different protections, one of them is that when the door for loading laundry is open, water will not be supplied and the washing program will not start. First, make sure the door is tightly closed and not loose. To do this, close it tightly with your hand.
If the door does not lock when manually closed, then you have the fixing tab on it is broken, or the latch which is located in the lock of the washing machine body. The tongue can simply be skewed, this is because a stem falls out of it, which serves as a fastener.
This happens due to the fact that over time the door hinges weaken, and the hatch warps. Either way, you will need to align the door or take it apart to fit the stem. Also, if the lock itself is broken, then it needs to be replaced. Watch the video, which clearly demonstrates the repair of the door lock:
The second problem that may arise with not closing the hatch. it not working door lock. The fact is that in any washing machine, the hatch is blocked before washing in order to protect you. If the machine cannot lock the door, then it will not start the washing program, which means that water will not be drawn into the machine.
Broken water inlet valve
The inlet valve is responsible for supplying water to the washing machine. When the programmer sends a signal to it, the valve opens and water is supplied to the machine. When a signal comes that there is already enough water, the valve shuts off the water. A kind of electronic faucet. It turns out that if the valve is not working, then it will not be able to open itself and we will not see water in the washing machine. The easiest way is to ring it, because most often the coil burns out at the valve. It is located behind the washing machine, and the inlet hose is screwed to it.
If the water supply valve is broken, it should be replaced.
Broken software module
The software module is the central "computer" of the washing machine, which performs all the intelligent actions. It contains all the time data, washing programs, and in general it controls all the sensors.
If it was the programmer that broke down, then this is a rather serious breakdown, and you cannot do without calling the wizard. It may be possible to repair it, if not, then you will have to change it completely. In any case, before checking and changing the software module, first check all of the above, because in 99% of cases the problem lies either in a clogged filter, or in a closed tap, or in a broken door.
Comments
Do not use the word programmer. It's from a completely different area. Where the buttons and indicators are located is either the control board, or the control module, or the control panel.
Hello! I have a fairly new and not old washing machine. Beko 3.5kg 800. She washed perfectly, but then it was that I pressed the time button to reduce the washing time. I clicked on - and now the washer does not work.I turn it on, the time is also at 1 hour 30 minutes, and I put washing powder there. it turns on and does not work, water does not come, but time goes by.
My machine does not turn on the eco valve .. water flows from one tube, but where there are many holes above the compartments .. what to do
water does not enter the washing machine at all. Tell me what to do, who faced such a problem. Thank you in advance
The water is running slowly, the valve has changed, the pressure has been checked, the grid has been pulled out, nothing has changed, what else could it be?
The washer didn't get any water at all. And the problem was just simply bad contacts on the water supply solenoid valve! Pulled the wires and put it back, and voila, everything works)
Water was not drawn into the washing machine, I changed the valve, I turn it on, it starts to buzz but there is still no water supply, what could be the problem?
