Do not drain water from the drum

One of the most common causes of malfunction in washing machines from different manufacturers is the lack of draining. Almost every person faced with the fact that the unit after draining the program does not drain the water.

• blockage in the drainage pipe;
• filter clogging;
• clogging that originated in the sewer;
• breakage of the electric pump responsible for draining the water in the stylalk.

Before repairing the "Virpul" washing machine, whether with vertical loading or frontal, it is necessary to empty the drum from the water that was formed during washing:

• You can use the emergency drain pipe, which is located next to the main hose. To do this, you just need to open the cork and replace the basin.
• The second way to drain the liquid from the washing machine is to unscrew the filter. You need to do this very carefully and arm yourself with a lot of rags, since all the water( there is a lot of it, despite the fact that at first glance, there is not more than five liters) will rush out of this hole. With such a drain, you can not substitute the pelvis, since the filter is located at the very bottom of the device.

To solve a malfunction associated with a bad or missing drain, you must flush the filter and hoses from dirt and debris. Sewage is also worth cleaning with a flexible cord made of wire.

Breakage of the heating element

Have you thought about the fact that you need to repair the washing machines "Virpul", because the water does not get warm when washing? Then you need to independently ascertain the cause of the failure. If the temperature does not match the one declared when choosing a program, then the only reason is a failure of a TEN or a thermistor.

In any case, it is necessary to diagnose this fault.

How to replace the heater:

1. Use a screwdriver to unscrew the bolts that hold the back cover.
2. Remove the bracket, which prevents you from getting close to the TEN.
3. In front of you is a heater - a metal plate with contacts and wires.
4. Disconnect the wires.
5. Using a special meter, measure the resistance.
6. Measure the resistance of the heating element.

At this stage you will notice that the readings are zero. In this case, it is necessary to produce a washing machine "Virpul" repair by one's own hands, namely the replacement of the TEN.To do this, you need to remove the old heating element.

Important! Often, it is possible to determine the failure of a TEN without a multimeter. The plate so burns to the surface that a thick layer of scale is formed, which can be up to one centimeter thick.

With a strong scale and the inability to detach the plate from the first time, you need to use a special tool WD-40.The

heater is mounted on a rubber gasket, which must also be replaced with a breakdown of the heating element. This is due to the fact that not replaced gum in the process of operation can occur, which will lead to serious consequences.

After you have installed a new heater, it is necessary to reconnect all wires and screw it. Replace the back cover. Simply put, the assembly process is the same as disassembly, only in reverse order.

Water flows from the hatch during washing

One of the most common problems is the leakage of water from the window during the operation of a program. Before thinking about repairing the washing machine "Virpul", you need to know exactly the cause of this fault.

Water can escape from the hatch only because of a bad rubber cuff that is fixed from the inside of the window. This part is designed to not allow water to pass through.

Important! It is necessary to constantly monitor the purity of the gum. So, when washing at the bottom of the cuff is going to constantly dirt and a small amount of water. As a result, the rubber can burst, crack and let in water.

How to replace the old cuff with a new one:

1. Open the hatch as far as possible.
2. With a small screwdriver we support the plastic holder, in which the rubber band is fixed.
3. On the rubber lining we find a bolt - this is the place of attachment of the cuff.
4. We unscrew the bolt, thereby spreading the cuff.
5. With a small force pull on the cuff, and it succumbs to you.
6. Carefully insert a new rubber band. It is not recommended to use sharp objects at this stage.
7. Dress the collar.
8. We screw the bolt.
9. We use a washing machine.

Important! When buying a new cuff, we strongly recommend to stop your choice on the original model, which is produced by Slovakia or Italy. Do not buy cheap cuffs that will not last for long and will do more damage to the device.

In order not to worry about repairing the washing machine "Virpul" with your own hands, it is worthwhile to take care of the unit constantly. Namely:

• clean the filters after several washings;
• wipe the cuff;
• check pockets before washing;
• only use special detergents.
