Common Frigidaire washer problems we fix
A washer's symptoms help direct diagnosis, but the same symptom can have more than one cause. We inspect the relevant components and explain the repair before work begins.
- Won't drain
- A kinked or clogged drain hose, clogged pump filter, or failing drain pump can leave water in the tub.
- Fills slowly
- Restricted supply, clogged hose screens, or a faulty water inlet valve can keep the tub from filling at a normal pace.
- Won't spin
- An unbalanced load, lid-lock failure, worn drive belt, or problem with the motor or control can stop effective spinning.
- Leaks during a cycle
- Supply hoses, drain connections, a door boot on applicable designs, or an overflowing tub are common places to investigate.
- Excessive suds
- Too much detergent or detergent that is not HE-rated can create suds that interfere with washing and rinsing.
- Loud banging
- An uneven load or washer that does not rest firmly can cause movement; worn suspension components can also contribute.
- Will not start
- A power interruption, lid-lock fault, or control problem can prevent a cycle from starting.
- Clothes remain wet
- Incomplete draining, an interrupted spin, or an unbalanced load can leave laundry wetter than expected.
