Washer And Dryer Repair
Before conducting any dryer repairs, make sure that you switch off all power to the unit. Here are a few basic steps you can take to fix your dryer before calling a professional dryer repair service. One of the most common dryer repair problems is a dryer that doesn't turn on. If this happens, make sure that the dryer is receiving enough power. Check the power receptacle, and if there is no problem with the power supply, then look for a properly functioning door switch. In case of a defective door switch, you may have to replace the part. There could also be a problem with the main wiring connection, like burnt or broken wiring. If this is the problem, then the terminal block located inside the dryer, as well as the power cord must be replaced. If the dryer doesn't heat, again check if the power supply is sufficient. It could also be because of a burnt out heating element. If there is a burnt thermal fuse, this may have to be replaced. In case of a gas dryer, make sure that the gas valve supply is turned on at the back of the dryer, and that the main gas supply is turned on.
If your dryer makes a lot of noise, but there is no tumbling movement, check the interior of the drum for any objects that have become loose. The noise could also occur because of any dryer parts that have become loose or defective components like a drum belt, motor bearings and support roller. In case of defective parts, it's best to rely on a professional dryer repair service. In case of a dryer that is too slow make sure that there is no obstruction in the vent duct that leads from the dryer to outside. The duct must be kept clean, and the dryer must never be placed too close to the valve. Slow heating can also occur because of a heating element that is partially burnt. Call a dryer repair service to replace the burnt element.
Washing machines can get overloaded which causes the motor to stop in the middle of the cycle. Simply remove a few pieces of clothing, and restart the machine. If the washer doesn't seem to spin, balance the load of clothes in the tub. Otherwise, check if the plastic tab on the lid switch is broken. If it is, get it replaced by a washing machine repair professional. Spinning problems can also result because of broken or worn out belts. If you have good DIY skills, you can tighten the belt or replace it yourself. Otherwise call an experienced washing machine repair person.
