Top Load washer not Spinning
Top load washers are a popular and convenient appliance that can save you time and energy when it comes to doing your laundry. However, like any other appliance, they can experience problems from time to time. One common problem said many ways Local Solutions Appliance Repair deals with is when the "washer won't spin, clothes not spinning out, or the clothes are still wet after the washer has finished.". Here are the top five reasons why your top load washer might not be spinning properly:
The washer is overloaded: If your washer is overloaded, it may struggle to spin properly. To fix this problem, try removing some of the clothes from the washer and redistributing the load more evenly.
The washer is unbalanced: If your washer is unbalanced, it may struggle to spin properly. To fix this problem, try redistributing the load more evenly or adding a few towels to the washer to balance it out.
The washer is not level: If your washer is not level, it may struggle to spin properly. To fix this problem, try adjusting the legs of the washer until it is level.
The belt is broken: If the belt that connects the motor to the tub is broken, your washer may not spin properly. To fix this problem, you will need to replace the belt.
The motor is broken: If the motor that powers the washer is broken, your washer may not spin properly. To fix this problem, you will need to replace the motor.
The lid switch is broken; If the lid switch or lock has malfunctioned then the washer will not proceed to spin. Bypassing the lock is dangerous and shouldn't be a solution given the relatively low cost of this safety feature.
