Reasons for stopping the washing machine during the washing process

Modern household appliances crammed with all sorts of electronics, so that manual labor is automated, and the washing machine is no exception. She performs the programmed actions in the process of washing, but no one is immune from damage. It happens that the machine simply “freezes”, not bringing the program to the end. Consider the main reasons why a washing machine stops during washing.

Simple solutions to the problem

During washing, home appliances sometimes cease to perform subsequent actions or, in simple terms, can hang. Complicated reasons for refusal can not be removed by you, but there are also simple, sometimes ridiculously offensive.We give the most common causes of simple failures of the washing machine.

The weight of the linen exceeds the norm

Some models have built-in smart sensorresponsible for exceeding the permissible norms. What to do in this case is extremely clear - remove excess linen and start the car again. If everything is normal, then you have correctly identified the cause.

Invalid task

Sometimes users ask delicate wash, and then panic that the car stopped and does not squeeze. In this mode, there is no such function, and automatics has nothing to do with it. Turn on forced drain and then spin mode.

An imbalance has occurred

When washing small and large things, an abnormal situation may occur when the laundry is assembled in a single lump in one part of the drum. Unbalance sensor triggered, and a halt occurs. Not all users immediately understand the cause of equipment failure, however, when opening the loading door, everything becomes clear: it is necessary to evenly distribute erasable things inside the drum and start the spin mode first.

Special sensors are installed by the manufacturer to prevent accidents: the appearance of unacceptable vibration due to imbalance,heavy load on the motor with excessive weight of linen. These measures protect household appliances from overload.

Program selection error

Users sometimes make elementary mistakes by choosing several washing modes. As a result, the washing machine stops without finishing the wash. For example, the hostess chose the program "Soak", "Wash" and "Whitening". Smart technology will stop in the middle of the process, because it does not have the combined “Whitening” and “Soaking” modes: they must be started separately.

Manufacturers of modern automatic devices always very clearly describe all the programs and modes, they do not forget about the features. You should carefully study the attached instruction, to avoid annoying blunders. Household appliances erases in stages and strictly according to the program, so carefully select the desired mode.

 Mode selection

Serious damage

If the washing machine is stuck during the wash, and the above actions have not been successful, then there are much more serious causes. Find them will not be so easy - you have to turn to master from the service center.

If the machine does not perform the specified functions to the end, then the following parts and components could fail:

  • closed electric motor;
  • burned out heating elements or lead wire contacts;
  • a clogged drain filter or nozzle;
  • a drain pump has failed;
  • electronic equipment or programmer failure;
  • broken lock hatch boot.

The user needs to understand what happened, and what detail is the culprit for the failure of technology, what to do in each case. You can not act at random - it can only aggravate the situation. It is necessary to forget about the further operation of household appliances without consulting a specialist, otherwise repairs may cost more than the initial cost of the unit.

TEN does not work

If the washing machine hangs at the very beginning of the washing process, then there may be a failure TENA, or the burning of the power supply wires to it. Such a breakdown creates problems in the heating of water, disrupts the entire algorithm of specified actions.

When the timer hangs up, it is unlikely that someone will immediately give you the exact answer: you need to scrupulously check the entire electronic circuit.

Contamination system drain

When the washing machine stopped during the spin cycle, the cause may be a clogged filter or a nozzle fitting the drain pump. Here you need to check:

  • drain hose;
  • pump drain;
  • filter;
  • tank drain hole;
  • sewage system.

The easiest way out is to check drain filter, when clogged, clean it and the entire structure from impurities or replace it with a new one. The whole operation will take you no more than 10-15 minutes.

Worse if clogged drainage from sewage or the entire home system: you can not do without a professional plumber. You can still clean the tap with the help of chemicals like Mole or folk remedy (soda and vinegar), but you can not cope with the whole system.

Drain hose, if the stop occurred on the rinse, you can clean it yourself. Unscrew the hose clamps to disconnect the hose from the typewriter and siphon sink for dishwashing or washing, depending on whether the machine is in the kitchen or in the bathroom. Then rinse it from the inside with hot water under pressure. If not, then carefully remove the blockage with a wire, but bend the sharp end so as not to damage.

 Drain hose

In the case when your machine has stopped during the wash due to clogging in another place, it is better to call the master. Without certain skills and abilities it is better not to risk.

Broken hatch door

If the washing machine has stopped working, then the reason may be loose closing of the loading doorwhat happens due to a broken lock or a loose fit rubber cuff. On budget models, rubber seals are often installed rather stiff and poorly fitted.

To prevent the problem from reoccurring, sand the edges of the cuff with sandpaper to remove excess rubber.

Failures of important parts lead to the fact that the equipment can stop at any mode of washing, and an inscription is displayed on the electronic display indicating that the upcoming repair will cause serious damage to the family budget. In conclusion, I want to warn you: there are many reasons why a washing machine suddenly stops during washing, and only a certified specialist of a service center can establish a correct diagnosis.
