Causes of bad plum
What is the reason for the accumulation of water in the drum equipment? After all, modern devices for washing have a special function of protection from stains, called Aquastop. Everything is prepared in such a way that the aquatic environment does not have the ability to flow out and flooding. There are also devices with check valvesif the machine is not necessary to use.
However, even taking into account preventive measures, water appears. Immediately determine the source of water penetration in the car at rest. Let's analyze this water in the tank:
- with polluted water that stinks sewage, we are dealing with a machine connection in some way with sewage;
- subject to water without dirt and without smell - it is the fault of the aqueduct and malfunctions in the car itself.
When you connect not by the rules, there is a problem in the work of sewage, water drain does not function. This in itself causes the appearance of fluid in the tank, and if problems are added to the machine itself, this aggravates the situation. We turn to specific examples of the appearance of water in the drum, and consider ways to eliminate it.
Water appears in a broken machine.
Situation: the machine is not in use, and the water in the tank unit arrives. The first step is to block water refill tap in the technique. If the problem is not solved, then the question is in the false functioning. water drain. Often sewage enters the unit due to improper sewer connections, namely, inaccurate location of the hose on the drain.So, you need to carefully check the connection of the unit.
If all connections are made properly, then the source of the problem is most likely a blockage in the pipe. What drains from the sewage will accumulate inside the device, not to find a way out and go up the hose. What to do? Eliminate this kind of blockage.
If the water does not disappear, then apparently, the car will have to disassemble. Possible failure option gate valve. Why does this happen?
- If the water is of poor quality, then the presence of gravel and small pebbles is not excluded. As a result - valve clogging, failure in his work.
- Also wear of the valve is not excluded. Solve the problem will be possible only when it is replaced.
In addition, wiring may be faulty, which ultimately affects the valve with current. For diagnostics of this kind, it is better to turn to professionals: they will determine the broken part of the electronics and repair it.
If you are not sure that you can independently disassemble the machine, turn off the water supply and call a specialist.
Water appears when the machine is running.
If the water in the drum of the machine is not completely drained or does not go away at all, the problem lies in the breakdown of parts of the CMA drain system.
Drain filter clogged
Situation: after washing the water remained in the tank. To fix the problem, first of all you need to check drain and filterwhich is available on the floor under the closed lid. The most common cause of such stagnation of water - clogging drain filter. Follow the instructions:
- Drain hand water from the hose - otherwise there is a risk that all water will be poured onto the floor.
- Unscrew the filter and rinse with running water.
- Examine the pump, which is located behind the filter: you need to turn on the “drain” mode and see if the pump blades are spinning.
- If the pump is also clogged with dirt and the movement of the blades is difficult, carry out its cleaning.
- Reinstall the filter and rerun the drain program. If everything worked, then the reason was polluted plum.
Broken pump
If dirt is not detected when filtering and inspecting the pump, the breakdown may be more serious. If the washing machine is still trying to get rid of the fluid, and at the same time produces extra noise, then probably it is time to overhaul the pump. How to check if the pump is working? If in the discharge mode the blades (impeller) of the drain pump do not move, this clearly indicates its malfunction.
It is impossible to repair the pump yourself, it is necessary to call a specialist. In 90% of cases, the problem is solved by replacing a broken part with a new one. You can buy a new pump both independently and relying on the specialists of the service center. They will tell you where to get a pump that is suitable for your SMA model.
Preventive measures

- Make a rule to organize cleaning machineusing special tools. For example, the usual lemon acid.
- Periodically conduct monitoring of equipment for the possible presence of failures and malfunctions: timely detection of a problem will make it possible to more effectively eliminate possible failures.
If you are not quite sure that you will cope with the damage yourself, then there are specialists who will repair the damage. However, do not rush and try to inspect the state of the technology yourself: save time and money.
