Why when turning on the washing machine can knock stoppers

Sometimes users have to deal with the fact that when you turn on the cycle of the washing machine knocks cork. Naturally, the apparatus itself (with the unfinished washing process) and all the electricity in the house is immediately cut down. This problem cannot be left unsolved.

Reasons for shutting down the device

The reason for disabling the machine during operation of such a device can be found in the following points:

• wiring problems;
• problem in the technology itself.

Before you test both versions, you should definitely de-energize both the machine itself and other high-power electrical appliances. After that, you can already begin work on finding damage.

Wiring problems

It is best to check the power circuit according to the following algorithm:

1. At the very first launch of a new device, disable the automata.If this is the only problem, then only adjust the machines. An improper type of diphavtomat or RCD may be installed. On how to choose the right machine on the SMA, read here.
2. Traffic jams can break out when working in the neighborhood of such powerful electrical appliancesas a kettle, vacuum cleaner or oven.
3. Used wrong cable: only VVG type of 3 x 2.5 is suitable. The best solution for connecting the washing machine There will be a separate network laying, with a separate outlet for it. The extension cannot be used.

The answer to the question, what should be the correct traffic jams of the machine, can be found in the video:

Did not fit any of the proposed options? Then it is necessary to check the integrity of the wiring and the outlet itself, in which it will be sufficient to include a similar power appliance.

By the way, it is best to buy sockets with a special case protected from moisture.

If all of the above does not give an answer to the question of why electricity is knocked out when the device is turned on, then the problem is in the washing machine itself. It is necessary to proceed to Plan B - troubleshooting the unit.

Checking TENA with a multimeter

Washing machine problems

It happens that knocks out the machine when you turn on the washing machine because of problems with the equipment itself. The solution lies in troubleshooting:

1. One of the frequent prerequisites for the failure of the machine becomes breakage of the tubular electric heater (TENA). This part, like no other, is constantly exposed to the aquatic environment and detergents. The protective shell gradually erodes: moisture gets inside, on the spiral itself. The result is a failure of the device and a short circuit in the network. Of course, TEH is subject replacing.
2. Control board defective. Blame, again, moisture. It falls on the control board and leads to oxidation of the contacts. The logical outcome is closure. The degree of damage will be estimated by the master, who will decide whether to replace or repair the board.
3. Motor is faulty. The closure in this part occurs due to natural wear or water ingress. Unfortunately, only a replacement will definitely be needed here - such a breakdown cannot be repaired.
4. A short circuit can also cause power button because of its old age and the likelihood of oxidation. The wizard can change contacts or suggest replacing a button.
5. Similarly, problems with wiring and terminals inside the unit.

Problem diagnosis

Even with a single case, when you turn on the washing machine when the cork is knocked out, it is impossible to ignore what happened. But many owners do just that: they simply go to the electrical panel, put the tumbler in place and continue to erase further. Such an approach is very dangerous - the next overload will simply destroy the equipment. The reason must be found, but if the user has never had experience with electronics, and he does not know which way to approach the multimeter or tester, it is best to entrust this matter to a professional. If the owner of the equipment is self-confident and has the relevant experience, then he will be able to detect the problem by following such step-by-step instructions:

1. From the washing machine is removed Control block.
2. With the help of a multimeter, everyone calls up button contacts and wires going to them.
3. It is important to check and power cord - you can get it after dismantling the bottom panel.
4. If everything is in order with the above item, check network filterwhich is next to the cord.If a fault is detected, both the cord and the filter are changed.
5. Failure of the plugs of the machine after starting the device can be affected by faults of contacts, terminals, sensors and wires. With the control unit already disassembled, the diagnostics should begin with it. But it is better to give this complex detail to the testing of specialists - it is quite possible that you simply do not have enough experience and knowledge to notice the fault.
6. If the problem is not in the control unit, then you should continue the movement - now we diagnose the wires going further, and after them engine, pump, heater and other sensors and parts.
7. If any burnt element is detected, it must be replaced without fail (so as not to disassemble the entire machine again because of it).

This technique has long been an indispensable assistant in everyday life. So that she can continue to wash and maintain the cleanliness of the laundry, you need to pay attention to everything, even the smallest details of her work, to conduct regular prophylaxis. Such tactics will help to avoid the financial costs of expensive repairs.
