If your washing machine doesn’t respond when you turn it on, there may be a simple fix. There’s a number of solutions that range for serious to simple, but the best place to begin is with the power supply itself.
• Power The first thing to check is if your washing machine is getting power. If there isn’t electricity flowing into your washer you’ll need to check your household electrical panel to see if any circuit breakers may have been tripped.
• Motor If the washer’s motor overheated the washer will shut down to allow it to cool before you start it again.
• Lid Switch Washing machines are designed to stop working when the lid is open. The lid switch is a small plastic piece located under the lid. In order for the switch to activate, the lid must be shut. Check to see if the switch is in good repair and properly positioned.
• Timer Knob Some models require the timer knob to line-up exactly with the control panel graphics. To check this, simply advance the timer and try to restart the washer again.
