Why won't the Candy washing machine spin the laundry and what should I do?

Breakdown of the Candy washing machine can occur at any time, one of the most common problems with SMA is the lack of spinning. Of course, this problem is unpleasant, but do not panic ahead of time, most of the faults can be eliminated on their own without resorting to the services of a specialist. Why SMA Candy stops squeezing and how to deal with it is discussed in our review.

If you are faced with the fact that your machine has stopped working for push-ups, then first you need to exclude the possibility of user errors - that is, to make sure that the unit is really out of order. The fact is that such errors are often caused by operational deficiencies that can be easily and easily corrected... So, among the most common reasons, one can single out the installation of the wrong mode. Some things - delicate linen, shoes or outerwear - are washed on special programs without spinning. It is likely that you could accidentally turn on the reduced mode of operation of the washing equipment instead of the full one.

The reason for the error may be a tank restart. - in this case, the spin option simply cannot cope with such a load of laundry. At increased speeds due to disturbances in the operation of the motor, the sensor simply blocks the rotation of the drum. The maximum weight that the SMA is able to handle is always indicated in the instructions - be sure to read this paragraph before using the machine.

Quite often, the reason for the lack of effective spinning becomes clogging of the drain filter - it often turns out to be clogged with rubber bands, small coins and other small objects. They interfere with the withdrawal of liquid, and the program pauses the spinning of the laundry. If these actions did not lead to the desired effect, it is possible that there is a blockage in the hose itself. In some cases, the reasons for the error are more complex.

The CMA operates on a programmable algorithm that is responsible for the correct operation of all options. If it does not work, then the washing is paused, the program needs new firmware, which not all models can do. The reason for the failure of the spin option may be the burnout of one of the elements. Most often this happens when the sensor that regulates the volume of water in the drum is malfunctioning. When it sends a signal to the control unit that the waste liquid has been drained from the drum, the system starts spinning. Respectively, if the sensor does not respond to changes in water in the tank, then spinning is not performed.

Another reason comes down to a breakdown of the sensor responsible for fixing the drum. The rotation in the machine is regulated by a sensor fixed on the motor shaft, it determines the number of revolutions per minute. If the wiring in it has burned out, then the signal simply does not go to the automatic system, it does not pick up speed and does not wring out the laundry well. If the SMA does not wring out, then the reason for this unpleasant phenomenon may also be in a failed engine.

In the absence of spinning, there is a high probability that worn out graphite brushes... Another common breakdown is associated with a malfunction of the electrical module. Most of the expensive Candy washing machines are equipped with an electronic control system based on a stabilizer. If it breaks down, the module will stop giving all the commands necessary for the correct operation of the machine - in this case, a situation arises when the drum is spinning, but the spinning does not turn on.

First of all, check condition of the drain hose - it should not bend. If a mud plug appears in it, it should be knocked out with a powerful jet of water. Carefully check the branch pipe that connects the reservoir to the pump - it may also need to be cleaned.

As you know, it is easier to prevent any problem than to fix it. therefore, in conclusion, we will give a few recommendations that will allow you to avoid the troubles associated with the lack of spin in the CMA.

• Before loading laundry, make sure the pockets are empty, remove all batteries, small coins, tokens, rubber bands and cigarettes from there - these items clog the filter and adversely affect the operation of the machine.
• Purchase only high quality powders and fill them in the amounts indicated in the instructions. You should not save on cleaning agent or, on the contrary, add too much powder - an excessive amount of foam can lead to failure of the water sensor.
• Any fluctuations in the network can cause problems with the wiring of the Candy, therefore, whenever possible, use surge protectors that will insure your equipment against power surges,
• Be sure to keep your machine clean, after each wash, it must be wiped both outside and inside, special attention must be paid to the elastic and the drum. Be sure to clean the powder container and fabric softener.
• Keep the door open for a while after washing - the tank must dry thoroughly from the inside.
• Avoid acid-based powders, they dissolve the protective layer of the tank and cause rust.
