Washing Machine Repair in Toronto

Washing machines are a staple in countless Canadian households. Instead of spending hours washing your clothes by hand, you can set it and forget it for 30-60 minutes and come back to find your clothes fresh and clean. The time-saving aspect is incredible, making one of the most time-consuming chores a treat to do on a daily or weekly basis.

While many people use drying racks, clotheslines, and hangers to dry their clothes, there are not many alternatives to a washing machine when it comes to getting your clothes clean. Sure, you can hand wash your clothes in the sink or bathtub, but this can take a significant amount of time. For many families who work full-time jobs and have kids, this would be impossible. The other alternative is using a laundromat, but the cost and travel time makes this difficult for many.

Benefits of a Home Washing Machine

A home washing machine can save you hundreds of dollars per year compared to washing your clothes at a laundromat. For a family who does 8 loads of laundry per week, that expense can add up over a year. Throughout its lifetime, a washing machine can save you thousands compared to its up-front cost. Especially when you wash your clothes on a cold setting, the energy-usage is minimal, helping save you money on your electricity bill and maintain a responsible environmental footprint.

Washing Machine Repair FAQs

Your washer won’t start, what to do now? That can be a big hassle, especially when you have a pile of laundry waiting to get washed. Take a look at some possibilities for the cause of this issue:

Power Cord

First ensure that power is getting to the electrical outlet. If the electrical outlet is receiving power, but the washer won’t start, the power cord might be defective. However, this is very rare.

Display Board

The display board might need to be replaced, or there could be a problem with the power to the board.

Line Fuse

The line fuse blows if the washer circuits are overloaded. If the line fuse blows, the washer won’t start.

Incoming Power Problem

The electrical outlet may not be getting power. To determine if the outlet is getting power, try plugging something else into the outlet. If the outlet is not getting power, check the home circuit breakers or fuses.

Door Lock

The door lock secures the washer door shut during operation. Once the washer door is closed, the washer can begin operating. If the washer door is not latched shut, the door switch will prevent the washer from operating. If the door lock is defective, the washer will not spin or start.

Main Control Board

The main control board might be defective. However, the main control board is rarely at fault for this symptom.

If your washer doesn’t spin, there might be a part that needs replacement. Some parts that may be faulty are:

Lid Switch Assembly

The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin.

Drive Belt

If the drive belt is broken or loose, it needs replacement.

Motor Coupling

If the washer is overloaded, or because of normal wear, the motor coupling could fail.

Clutch

The clutch assembly makes the connection between the transmission and the inner tub. It helps the tub to gradually get up to the proper spin speed. If the clutch is worn out, it may prevent the tub from spinning.

Drive Pulley

The drive pulley connects to the washer drum and works with the drive belt and motor to rotate the drum. If the drive pulley is worn out, the drive belt might slip off, preventing the washer from spinning.

There could be a clog in the drain, or a damaged drain pump or hose that need replacement. Moreover, If the lid switch assembly fails, it prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open, and the washer will not drain. Lastly, some older washing machines are equipped with a water pump belt. If the water pump belt is broken or worn out, the washer will not drain.

There are a few things that may cause your washer tub to become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during operation. One or more of the shock absorbers or suspension rods or springs might be broken or worn out. If one of these breaks, the tub might become unbalanced, causing it to shake and vibrate during operation. Lastly, washer vibration can occur if the shipping bolts have not been removed.

Leaks around the washer are usually caused by a leaking hose. You have three hoses on a washer — two supply hoses and one drain hose. They might be disconnected or damaged and need replacement. Moreover, water could leak from your machine Because of a worn out tub seal or door boot seal.

If your machine isn’t filling with water, there’s probably a problem with the water control or inlet valve, or one of the hoses. Moreover, the home water pressure might be too low. The water inlet valve requires at least 20 psi to function properly. Check the water pressure to the valve to determine if it is sufficient.

The most common causes for a washer to become noisy during operation are one of the bearings, they need to be inspected for damage. The drive pulley might be worn out, cracked, loose or bent. Furthermore, one of the drive belts might be defective. Over time, the drive belt can dry out and start to crack or burn. Eventually, a piece of the belt can break off, causing the belt to make a loud noise whenever the motor is running.
