to the contents ↑The most common failures of Ardo and how to solve them
If the Ardo washing machine with vertical loading does not turn on or its operation does not conform to the usual norms, then most likely you had to face one of the following typical faults.
The water in the drum is not heated
This trouble is common enough - both in units with vertical and in models with a horizontal loading principle. If you study user feedback and statistical studies, in 95% of cases this is due to a malfunction of the heating element. Also a malfunction of this kind can occur in the event of damage to the electrical heating circuit, which most often occurs due to the failure of one of the terminals.
Important! The most rational solution in this situation will be a complete replacement of the heating element of the automatic washing machine. It is quite difficult to cope independently with the solution of such a problem, and the slightest inaccuracy can lead to more serious breakdowns. Therefore, in such situations it is recommended to contact the service center for assistance.
After turning on the drum is not filled with water
Such a breakdown is most often found in washing machines of vertical loading. There is a problem with the overlapping of the water supply tap. The reason for this blocking is often a malfunction of the valve of the washing equipment. Two factors can provoke such trouble:
- control unit malfunction;
- contamination of the filter.
Important! In the event of a failure of the power supply unit without the help of specialists, the replacement of the valve mechanism itself is indispensable. If you are faced with a dirty filter, then cleaning it yourself will not be a big deal.
Washing machine pours too much water
If your washing machine pours an excessive amount of water into the drum, you can distinguish the two most likely causes of the failure:
- A draining that results in the water being thrown into the drum space by the system almost immediately after the set. Most often, this behavior of the equipment is observed in case of incorrect connection of the system to water pipes.
- Failure of the program, which may indicate problems with electronics or breakdown of any parts.
Important! If the machine is properly connected to the water supply, and therefore the software fault is not diagnosed in its operation, do not try to solve the problem yourself. Correctly identify and eliminate violations of electronics will be able to only a highly qualified maintenance technician.
