Common washer problems
Before calling for service, check these:
Is the lid closed?
▼
Is the Cycle Control Knob set and pulled out?
▼
Is the power cord firmly plugged into a live outlet with proper voltage?
▼
Have you blown a household fuse or tripped a circuit breaker?
▼
Are both the hot and cold water faucets turned on?
▼
Are the water hoses kinked or clogged?
▼
Is the drain hose higher than the water level in the washer? It must be higher for
proper operation.
▼
Is the washer making noises (see page 8) or vibrating?
Is the wash load properly distributed around the agitator?
