Al Raha Beach Abu Dhabi Washing Machine Repair



[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]The only time doing the washing is probably even remotely exciting is doing your first load with your shiny new washig machine - freshly unboxed and ready to go. You have high hopes for this machine, after the old one was due to be put out to pasture. You picture your new purchase gently caressing your clothes - rather than beating them to a pulp - as the drum rotates majestically. Washing machines are pretty advanced bits of technology when you think about it, and there's a lot of moving parts involved in making your life easier. However, what's not fun is when your washing machine starts acting up.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]There's no doubt you've heard the horror stories. Your neighbour Bob was just washing his rugby kit last Saturday when - suddenly - the washing machine spontaneously combusted. While this is obviously a bit of hyperbole, washing machines can act up majorly, and the ACCC often issues a series of recalls on parts, or whole washing machines, that are faulty. For example, back in June 2015, Samsung had no less than four top loaders issued for recall after some machines shorted out and caught fire. [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Short[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] of major catastrophes like your washing machine catching fire - which is an obvious ground for complaint - here are some common problems with washing machines, and how to fix them, especially if your machine is out of warranty.[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] Al Muroor Abu Dhabi Washing Machine Repair[/FONT]


[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Common Washing Machine Problems[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]There are a few main problems that can arise with washing machines, and some simply come down to good old human error![/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My front loader is foaming like a rabid dog![/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Did you use the right detergent? It's a common mistake to use top loader detergent in your front loader as packing design is pretty similar between the two varieties when you pop into the supermarket. Top loader detergent is designed to foam and produces suds, but front loader detergent is not. Front loader detergent in a top loader will not likely prove disastrous, but your clothes probably won't be properly cleaned. Suds pouring out of your front loader can look like a snowstorm has happened in your laundry.[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If you can, stop the cycle immediately and wait for the drainage system to do its thing[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If there's a mess, all you can do is clean it up, and make sure you buy the right detergent next time[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Your clothes might not be damaged but they'll still need a solid wash[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My washing machine doesn't run![/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Have you tried turning it off and on again? Aside from that age-old IT hack, if your washer doesn't operate or make any noise, your power cord may lead to some clues.[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Make sure that the plug is actually plugged in and that the cord isn't frayed or damaged[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Check any kill-switches or auto-off mechanisms and check the user manual to reset them[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Beyond that, like a car that simply won't start up, it comes to a point where seeing a repair technician is probably just the least stress-inducing way to go. With a washing machine, the controls and switches may be faulty and any electrical work should be left to the professionals.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My washing machine is noisy or jumps around![/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]You've probably seen that scene from The Simpsons where the patrons of Moe's Tavern race some particularly shaky washers and dryers for a bet. Chances are if your machine is bouncing around or makes a huge raucous, it's probably not sitting on its legs or feet properly.[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Like a table with uneven legs, washing machines can rock: Adjusting the feet and making sure it's on a level surface can eliminate the rocking[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Going from a front loader to a top loader: Top loaders can generally be considered the more unwieldly of the two, with big agitators and big drums doing all the work[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]As washing machines get older, they may get a little noisier. If the noise doesn't sound unnatural, then it's probably just your noble steed getting on a bit. If it's a new machine, then it's worth looking at what it's sitting on and if it rocks about.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If your washing machine dances around like this, it's probably because you're being a bit silly! Don't try this at home. [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]LG Washing Machine Repair Abu Dhabi[/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My washing machine doesn't wash my clothes properly![/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]This is another one that could be caused by user error due to piling in too many clothes, using the wrong type of detergent, not using enough water, or using the incorrect cycle. However, if you're confident everything is hunky-dory in this regard, most of the potential issues may be sorted by taking a look at where the water is coming from:[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Check the supply valves and hoses: Check the valves are open fully, and that hoses are straight and not kinked[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Check drainage and cold water hoses. If your drain hose is clogged, there's every chance the gross grey water is washing back into the drum. Similarly, the cold water hose should flow freely and be free of blockages. You can test this by disconnecting it and testing it in a bucket or sink[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]As usual, if it's anything more than a blockage or an easy fix, it's probably best to contact a technician.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My laundry floor is wet![/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If it's not Fido's accident, then it's probably a washing machine leak, my friend. Once again, looking to your hoses and making sure they are working properly - and not backed up with crud - can be a good indicator. Similarly, supply hoses can burst, and this means turning off the cycle immediately or using the shutoff valves.[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Check how valves and hoses are fitted. If they're worn or leaky, replace them. The connections to taps should be tight, as should clamps[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Your detergent may be producing too many suds. As mentioned earlier, too many suds can cause the washing machine - especially front loaders - to overflow[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Beyond that, your washing machine may have a faulty seal, gasket or bearing, causing it to leak in another way. This is when it's time to call the washing machine guy.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]My front loader door won't unlock![/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]This is obviously less of an issue with top loaders, as top loaders don't need to lock in their doors to remain water tight. Most of the time, front loader doors are locked until the cycle is completed and the water inside the drum is drained. It should unlock automatically, however sometimes it may not, leaving your clothes damp and sitting idly.[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]First check the drainage hoses mentioned earlier to see if there's a block. If there's water in the drum cause by a blockage, the door will remain locked[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]The locking mechanism could have jammed: This is where turning the machine off and on again may trigger its release[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Your clothes may also be jamming the lock. Setting the washing machine to another short cycle may dislodge the problem article of clothing[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]It could be electronic. The washing machine still thinks its mid-cycle. In this case, water is probably still present in the drum[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If it seems like an electronic or cycle-related issue, it might be wise to contact the manufacturer or get in touch with a technician.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Top Loader Reviews & Ratings[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]How can I fix my washing machine?[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Save for a few instances where washing machines short and catch on fire, most problems are pretty minor and can be resolved quickly. But first there are a couple questions you'd need to ask yourself.Is my washing machine in warranty?This is probably the most important first step to consider. Manufacturers and retailers often offer a warranty on their products - commonly three months (90 days) - but it can be up to a year, and some extended warranties can be purchased for a longer period than this. Under ACCC guidelines, suppliers or manufacturers may supply a warranty to promise consumers that:[/FONT]


  • []"[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Products or services will be free from defects for a certain period of time"[/FONT]
    [] "[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Defects will entitle the consumer to repair, replacement, refund, or other compensation"[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Under warranty, consumers are also entitled to not pay for any repairs undertaken to remedy a defect or failure. Usually, you have the right to claim a remedy from the supplier, and have them deal with the manufacturer directly.Usually problems are categorised as 'minor failures' or 'major failures'. Minor failures refer to problems that can be fixed in a reasonable amount of time. Minor failures do not initially "allow the consumer to reject the product and demand a refund, replacement or compensation for the difference in value".[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Suppliers can choose to provide a repair or refund, or replacement, of similar value. An example of a minor problem includes things like a door locking fix or a hose blockage.Major failures on the other hand, include problems that a "reasonable consumer would not have bought the product if they had known about the problem". For example, you can reasonably expect a washing machine to not catch on fire or have the motor burn out within three months. Major failures also include products that are just downright unsafe.[/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A warranty is a safety blanket for the consumer, but also means consumers have a few obligations, such as to not use the product abnormally (see the video above) and to seek professional repairs and quality parts as per warranty or manufacturer specifications.Also make sure you add your major appliances to your home and contents insurance cover as back-up in the event that your warranty has expired.[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Should I get a professional to repair my washing machine?[/FONT]

[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]A warranty may disallow you to repair your washing machine yourself, and often it can just be less of a headache to simply seek professional repairs. If your washing machine is out of warranty, you'll usually have to front up for the cost of minor failures yourself, and some repairs can be costly, so it's tempting to undertake them yourself. However, here's when to[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] not[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] repair anything yourself:[/FONT]


  • [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]If the fault is electronic:[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] Only licensed electricians can legally undertake electrical work[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]Anything you're not comfortable with:[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] Major mechanical or electronic problems may be too much to tackle by yourself[/FONT]
    [][FONT=Times New Roman, serif]It involves hazardous materials:[/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman, serif] Water present - plus electricity - is also a hazard[/FONT]
[FONT=Times New Roman, serif]In any case, while a callout fee from a technician may be expensive, they likely have the knowledge needed for that quick fix. It can often just be less of a headache to call 'the guy' than source parts, look up DIY videos on YouTube and find time to do your own repairs. Furthermore, some repairs can be just downright dangerous, especially when dealing with water and electricity. Though following some of the measures we've listed above could provide the quick fix you're after, while also ensuring the correct maintenance and longevity of your new washing machine.We hope this guide has been useful. Remember to throw all your socks in before you wash, and check pockets for phones and coins![/FONT]
