Glenview Washing Machine Repair

When your washing machine breaks down, the laundry pile up can begin to look like an Appalachian mountain range. And then this means once your washing machine is fully operational again, one or two things will happen: an entire weekend wasted running the machine nonstop to clear away the pileup, or that dreaded trip to the laundromat where you blow through two rolls of quarters.Of course, the prudent thing to do in order to avoid the above-mentioned scenarios is to keep your washing machine running on all cylinders, so when you notice an issue with your washing machine, our advice is to place a call to your local Glenview washing machine repair company for a little preventive maintenance.

What are some of the problems that you may notice when your washing machine may be showing signs of trouble?

If your washing machine is making noises you don’t recognize or there is an excessive amount of vibrations, problems with the washing machine’s agitation, this could be anything from your washer isn’t leveled properly (the feet on the bottom of the washer is adjustable, so over time, it can become unbalanced) or the drive belt is wearing down and may need to be replaced

A problem with the drive belt can also be indicative of problems such as improper spinning or you notice a slight burning rubber odor.

Now, what about leaks and standing water in the washing machine tub? This could be any number of problems such as clogs in the drain pipes, some of the hoses may have become loose (a distinct possibility that requires periodic checks), again with the possibility of a defective drive belt, and the washing machine’s pump could be to blame.

What about if your washing machine fails to turn on all-together or starts up then abruptly turns off? This could be a mechanical issue such as a problem with the circuitry inside the washer or a tripped fuse. But the most common reason is a simple one: most washing machines are built with what’s called an “off-balance” switch. Simply put, if you have a load that is unbalanced, these machines will automatically shut off until the load is balanced properly. So try to redistribute the clothing in the tub more evenly, then start the washing machine over again.

Sometimes the spin cycle doesn’t work properly leaving you with soaked clothes. Yes, this could be problems with the drive belt again, but it also could be something as simple as a switch on the lid (a safety feature), there also could be some damaged wires or there could be clothing (socks, probably) stuck underneath the spin solenoid.

Finally, if you notice that there are spots or discoloration on your clothing, check to see if seems like an oil-based spot problem, because this could mean that the transmission is leaking (not just a car problem) and needs to be addressed by a certified washing machine repair technician.

Of course, there is a multitude of additional issues that could lead you to call upon a Glenview washing machine repair professional, but just make sure that you don’t wait until it’s too late before you call.
