Washer Problems We Diagnose in Scarborough Homes
These are the most common washing machine symptoms Scarborough homeowners search for. If the symptom is active, stop using the washer until the cause is confirmed.
Washer Not Draining
Standing water, pump noise, or wet clothes can point to a drain restriction, failed pump, or blocked hose.
Washer Not Spinning
A no-spin washer can be caused by a door lock, motor issue, belt, control issue, load imbalance, or drain problem.
Washer Leaking Water
Leaks should not be ignored. Water can damage floors, cabinets, ceilings, and nearby electrical components.
Washer Shaking or Vibrating
A shaking washer can be caused by leveling, suspension, load issues, shipping bolts, flooring, or worn internal parts.
Washer Making Noise
Grinding, scraping, banging, humming, or squealing can point to pump, bearing, motor, belt, pulley, or drum issues.
Washer Will Not Start
A washer that will not start may have a door lock, lid switch, control board, power, motor, or user-interface problem.
