Most of us
aren’t experienced repair technicians, especially when it comes to our affordable home appliances from the Philippines.
As such, if something should happen to one of our appliances, we wouldn’t know
exactly how to repair them. When it comes to our daily needs, appliances have
made it easier for us to move quickly.

One of
those basic appliances we use most of the time would definitely be our laundry
washing machine. As owners of this device, we are entitled to look out for
their maintenance and to at least know a little about its metal parts from the
Philippines. When there are minor complications and glitches, one must be
able to at least trouble shoot. Hiring a professional is the best thing to do
but in today’s modern age and hectic life style, we want to make repairs
quicker and more affordable. So as much as possible, if we see or feel that our
washing machine might be damaged, self-repair and check-up should be the first
thing to do.
To help
you out with that, here are a few things you need to know whether your washing machine needs repair:
Makes
Excessive Noises
Although,
washing machines are generally known to be quite loud when it’s operating, you
would still hear something out of the ordinary. Especially if your washer is
off balance, they would make louder rackety noises. What you can do in this
situation is to try evening out the clothes inside the machine. Don’t lump them
all in one space and rearrange the clothes. Also, check if the washer is
standing up right and if it’s well balanced. If it still makes unnecessary
noises then check if the drum or motor mount might be loose. Don’t worry
because the fix is very simple and easy. If you don’t want to that or you’re
scared of doing it yourself, call a washer repair service.
Water
Doesn’t Fill Up the Drum
This is a
common error when using the machine. If the water isn’t filling up, there are
many possible causes. It might be because of the kink in your hose, a delayed
cycle selection or the hot and cold water faucets are not turned on. A clogged
filter or a water intake valve may be to blame as well. If you’ve addressed
such issues correctly then you wouldn’t need to seek for professional
assistance anymore.
Water
Remains in the Drum
Once the
laundry finishes its cycle, the water should automatically drain off. If your
machine doesn’t have this feature then you have to press on something to drain
the water. If the water doesn’t drain then you should check to see if the
clothes have tangled up and blocked the pump. You can also evaluate the drain
hose for clogs. If these aren’t the problem, the cause may be your water pump.
Now, you may think that replacing the pump is an easy task but this is
something that you should leave to the professionals.
If you
absolutely have no idea what’s wrong with your washer then simply call an
expert. An expert can easily determine the problem quickly especially since the
inner workings of your washer are composed of many intricate components. Your
problem could get worse if you tamper something very delicate. If you don’t
know what’s wrong anymore, simply call up professionals for help.
