Typical malfunctions of Ardo washing machines and their elimination

Over time, any washing machine breaks down, Ardo is no exception. Faults can be both typical and rare. You can cope with certain breakdowns of Ardo washing machines with frontal or vertical loading on your own (cleaning filters, for example), but most of the problems require the participation of a qualified technician.

In most situations, the circumstances under which the Ardo washing machine does not spin the laundry is rather trivial. And the subject of discussion is not associated with the failure of the unit - the user often makes mistakes by initiating the refusal to spin. In this case, the following reasons are implied.

• The drum of the washing machine is overloaded with laundry or there is an imbalance in the rotating parts of the machine. When loading laundry above the standard or one large and heavy item into the machine, there is a risk that your washing machine will freeze without starting the spin cycle. A similar situation occurs when there are few or all light objects in the drum of the machine.
• The operating mode for the machine is set incorrectly... In the latest modifications of Ardo, there are a considerable number of functions and modes of operation that are customizable according to certain conditions. In an incorrectly set operating mode, the spin may not start.
• Improper care of the machine... Everyone knows that a washing machine needs to be constantly monitored. If the waste filter is not cleaned for a long time, it can become clogged with dirt and create obstacles to normal spinning. To eliminate such a nuisance, in addition to regular cleaning of the filter, it is advisable to perform this operation with a detergent tray, inlet and outlet hoses.

Inspect hoses, connections and filter for clogging, dismantle the pump and check its functionality. Find out if the electric motor is working, check how the tachogenerator is functioning. Then run diagnostics on the water level sensor. Complete the inspection with wiring, terminals and control board.

In washing machines with a vertical load, an imbalance also occurs with an excessive load or a small amount of laundry. The unit locks after several efforts of spinning the drum. Simply open the loading door and remove excess laundry or distribute items throughout the drum. Do not forget that such difficulties are inherent in old modifications, since modern washing machines are equipped with an option that prevents unbalance.

It will not be possible to immediately establish why the washing machine stopped turning on. For this, it is necessary to carry out a survey of equipment. Moreover, attention should be paid to both the external components of the unit and the internal ones. So, for example, the main reasons for the lack of performance are:

• electrical network problems - this includes problems with extension cords, electrical outlets, automatic machines;
• deformation of the power cord or plug;
• overheating of the mains filter;
• failure of the door lock;
• overheating of the contacts of the start button;
• the failure of the control unit can also be the cause of the malfunction.

Most experts call the first 2 factors "childish", and in fact, it will be easy to solve them. Nevertheless, most housewives, being in a panic, are not able to reasonably assess the situation, for them such a failure is incredibly serious.

The other 3 reasons require a painstaking survey and specific repairs. So, for example, due to a malfunction of the hatch, the indicators may not light up, their rotation is quite fast.

Here are some typical reasons why water might not come out of the washer.

1. The hose is squashed, and for this reason the water is not drained.
2. A clogged siphon and sewer can cause water to remain in the unit for a long time. At first, it leaves, but since the siphon is clogged and there is no passage to the sewer, the water from the machine comes out through the drain hole into the sink, and then from it ideas back into the machine. As a result, the unit stops and does not wash, does not spin. Be careful not to block the sewer system during the washing process. To find out where the blockage is - in the car or in the pipe, disconnect the hose from the siphon and lower it into a bucket or bathroom. If water comes out of the machine, then the sewer is clogged. It should be cleaned with a cable, kwacha or a special tool.
3. Inspect the drain filter. It is located at the bottom of the car. Unscrew it. Just first, put a rag or substitute a container so that water does not drip onto the floor. Thoroughly rinse this part and remove foreign objects and debris from the filter. The filter needs to be rinsed regularly.
4. If the filter is not clogged, the drain hose, pump or pipe may be clogged. Rinse the drain hose under a powerful pressure of water or blow it out. Clean the hoses through which the machine collects and drains water in a timely manner so that the washing machine does not fail due to a blockage.

Ardo machines use direct drive motors. The motor has a small pulley and the drum has a large one. They are interconnected by a drive belt. When the engine starts, a small pulley spins and transmits the torque through the belt to the drum. Therefore, with such a problem, examine the belt.

1. Observe safety precautions: before starting work, check that the machine is not energized.
2. Disconnect communications.
3. Remove the 2 screws on the top cover. They are in the back.
4. Remove the screws along the outline of the rear panel.
5. You will find a belt behind it. If he jumped out of place, put him back. First put on the small engine pulley, and then, turning, onto the large one. If the belt is worn out, torn, or stretched, replace it.

There can be several key factors that the washing machine does not open the hatch (door).

• Probably, there was not drained water from the tank of the machine. Even when the presence of water is visually imperceptible through the glass of the door, water has the ability to remain in a small amount on the bottom. However, this small volume is sufficient for the liquid level sensor to block the door opening for safety. You can try to clean the filter on your own, for example.
• It is possible that the door of the washing machine is blocked due to a broken door lock on the unit. As a rule, natural triggering can be the cause. If the lock does not function, then it will be necessary to either repair it or replace it with a new one.
• Failure of the control unit may be due to the fact that the door of the washing machine does not want to open.
