Washing machine: a new noise appears
Does it happen while filling, turning, draining or spinning? The timing helps distinguish a loose item from a drive, pump or bearing concern.
First, record the result.
Does it happen while filling, turning, draining or spinning?
The timing helps distinguish a loose item from a drive, pump or bearing concern.
Watch from outside the machine: the selected programme, remaining water and display are useful clues.
When the fault comes and goes
A simple time line helps: what you selected, what happened and when it stopped. Do not keep using an appliance that leaks, overheats or trips the supply.
What this guide cannot establish.
A matching symptom does not prove a particular faulty component. Give the complete model and the exact display message, if present. We confirm whether an inspection and the requested work can be accepted; do not dismantle the appliance or keep recreating an unsafe fault.
