Signs Your Washer and Dryer May Need Service
Your washer and dryer are an investment and are essential to your day-to-day life, so you want to keep them working their best and prevent small problems from turning into big problems. Appliances wear out with time and may need service. Some signs that your washer or dryer needs service are obvious while others are more subtle.
Loud Noises
There are noises that washers and dryers make that are normal, but if they’re much louder than normal, you should pay attention. Banging noises could mean the load is imbalanced and clothes need to be rearranged. If that’s not the problem but you still hear loud banging, you may need an adjustment to the drum or motor mount.
Leaky Washer
A puddle under your washing machine is never a good sign. There are a variety of possible causes, such as an overflowing tub or a crack in your washer. It’s best to have an appliance expert look at it to identify the cause.
Buttons Don’t Work
If you try to turn on your washer or dryer and nothing happens, it could be something as simple as an unplugged appliance or the child lock is on. You could also have an electrical problem with the appliance or in the outlet. Call for service right away, especially if you see sparks.
Drum Doesn’t Turn
It’s pretty clear something’s wrong when the drum doesn’t turn. The belt could be slipping or worn, which is best addressed by a professional.
Temperature Problems
Both washers and dryers can have temperature problems. A burning smell near your appliances needs to be investigated right away. Or, if clothes come out of your dryer too hot or if it never heated at all, it’s time for appliance maintenance.
Other Washer and Dryer Problems
Whether your clothes aren’t getting clean, not getting dry or you notice strange sounds or smells, don’t try to ignore the problem.
