To prevent the need for washer and dryer repairs, conduct regular maintenance of your dryers, and washing machines to keep them running properly. Check the rubber hose of your washing machine periodically, and look for wearing and tearing. There can be cracks in the hose which can result in leakage and even flooding. Replace the washing machine hose at least once in 5 years. You can expect your timers, switches, agitators, motor bearings and other components to wear out over a period of time. Avoid the need for regular dryer repairs by keeping the unit clean, and insuring proper venting. Get your vent hose cleaned at least once a year by a professional dryer repair man. Most dryer repairs that you can do at home, tend to involve checking to see if the power or the gas supply is turned on.
In case of a dryer that makes a lot of noise, but doesn't tumble, look for any parts of the dryer that have become loose. Look for defective parts of the dryer like a faulty support roller, worn out motor bearings, a defective drum belt that may be causing the noise. Call a trusted dryer repair service to replace these parts. If there is a lack of heating in the dryer, again look to see if the dryer is receiving enough power. In case your gas dryer begins to smell of natural gas, turn off the gas valve immediately, as well as the main gas supply line in the house. Open all doors and windows, and then make a call to your gas supplier. A dryer that's too slow may not be properly vented. Make sure that the vent duct is clean, and place the dryer away from the valve or any other obstruction. Dryers may also not function properly if there is a clog in the internal duct work. These clogs usually need extensive disassembling of the unit, and you are better off calling a dryer repair professional to clean the duct work.
Common washing machine problems involve a machine that doesn't run. In such cases, check the power supply to the unit. In case the motor stops in the middle of the cycle, remove some of the items of clothing from the machine to reduce the load. If the power receptacle is dead, look for a fuse or circuit breaker that's blown. Check the power cord, and replace if necessary. If none of these seem to help, you may have a problem with a washing machine control. Call a professional washer repair service to fix the problem.

My oven is by Kenmore and the problem is that I can't get it to go off when I press the off button and so therefore, I have to unplug the whole thing to turn it off. So when I plug it in the broiler comes on but not bottom of the oven. I need it repaired! |
My dishwasher overflowed during the last wash that we ran. We pulled the dishwasher out and realized that the drainage tube was loose but wanted to have someone look at it to verify that - that was the problem before we run it again! |
