How to identify a possible breakdown?

In this section, we will help the reader identify the main causes of the breakdown of his equipment. In order not to resort to the help of a master from a service center who will take a lot of money for the diagnosis of the machine, we will try to independently understand whether there is a breakdown in the washing machine, and if so, what is it connected with.

Breakdowns can be as follows:

• The water in the apparatus either does not heat up, or heats up too much, as a result - the machine “does not obey” its owner, things are not washed at the temperature that is required.
• The manhole cover does not close, due to which washing cannot start.
• The Beko washing machine gives an error code and flatly refuses to wash things.
• Water is not poured into the tank or poured for a very long time.
• Water after the washing procedure does not drain along the hose, and sounds that are not characteristic of it are heard from the machine.
• The rotation of the drum during washing clothes is accompanied by an incomprehensible noise, rattle and creak.
• The machine does not turn on even if it is plugged in.
• It is impossible to start any program, although the machine issues it, but does not execute it.

Attention! If you notice any other strangeness in the operation of your washing machine and cannot determine what is wrong with it, contact the master - he knows his business. A specialist will diagnose your washer and may be able to fix it right on the spot.

Two types of faults

Masters specializing in the repair of such equipment divide all breakdowns into two types:

• External Usually caused by damage to the case. External damage to the control panel (hole, deep scratch), a crack on the glass of the hatch, or breakage of its handle can also be characterized.
• Internal They are connected with the breakdown of internal parts providing the main work. Most often, this problem occurs when some part of the loaded clothes gets inside (for example, a small coin or a button from a shirt), or wear of an element has appeared, due to which the whole machine fails.

If the temperature in the device does not match the temperature selected by the user

Most likely, the cause may be a malfunction of the heater (part that heats the water) and / or control board. It is imperative to check both elements.

Important! For the future, you should understand one thing that the heater fails due to poor water quality. To prevent such a breakdown, it is enough to follow our tips so that from time to time descale in the washing machine.

If water does not flow into the tank or flows, but very slowly

There may be several reasons for this:

• The first of them - the filter that is in the hose is very clogged, so water cannot pass through it.
• The second is the lack of water in the water supply system.

Also, the cause may be damage to the control unit, which often fails because voltage surges are often present in the network. Protect your equipment is possible and necessary. For this, only put a good surge protector.

If the hatch does not close

Try to lightly push it with your knee, perhaps it just can not slam due to weak pressure. However, if the machine generates an error, and the code is decoded that the hatch is not closed, although this is actually not the case, the sensor has broken down, which blocks the device during washing.

If the machine does not drain used water and at the same time buzzes strangely

The problem may be a blockage in the hose from which water should pour out or in the control board.

If the machine turns the drum noisily

Such a malfunction of the Beko washing machine may result in damage to the bearings or the ingress of a small foreign object into the device. In this case, you must immediately turn off the machine, because this malfunction often is dangerous.
