The washing machine does not collect water

Household appliances is a modern assistant housewives. We are all so accustomed to use various devices every day, that any wrong work of theirs causes genuine horror. For example, you started washing, put things in the washing machine, filled up the powder, chose the program and. .. Nothing happens, the washing machine does not pick up water. It seems that the situation is complicated, because without water "not there and not syudy."But do not aggravate the situation, since the reasons that the machine does not pick up water can be quite commonplace. Let's look at and see what simple or complex reasons led to the cancellation of the washing process.

Washing machine does not pick up water - causes

Usually, after several years of operation, a malfunction often occurs when the stylalka does not gain water at all or does it slowly enough. In most cases, this problem can be solved manually, without calling the master.

We list the simplest and most common reasons for the poor performance of the unit:

• Absence of water in the water supply system or insufficient pressure. The only way to solve the situation is to wait for water. Perhaps, the municipal services started another preventive work. In case the head is weak constantly and there is no required required pressure, the issue can be solved by installing the pump by mounting it on the inlet line that supplies water to your apartment. Choose a device of such power that the pump would provide water not only with a washing "assistant", but also a kitchen, a toilet and a shower.
• Incorrect position of the water supply faucet in the unit. In this situation, it is useless and foolish to panic, as well as to call a master - just try to open the tap until it stops. If the valve is broken, replace it.
• The lock in the hatch is broken( the door is not closed properly).Reasons for not closing the washing machine:
  1. Lock does not occur when the door is closed.
  2. The door lock elements do not work.

Important! If there is no fixing of the door in the hatch, the plastic guide located below the tongue for fixing is damaged. Such a breakdown could occur due to the skewing of the hatch door - during the long operation of the unit( the hinges on the door loosened).In some models, the door is not locked because of a broken hook or special tongue, which could move or deform. Correct the failure and the problem will disappear - the equipment will work as before .

• The inlet filter clogged. To date, in front of such a device, it is necessary to install a filter made of metal mesh. It detains sand, pieces of rust, dirt, which come from a centralized water supply network. If the filter is clogged, then, accordingly, it reduces the water pressure. As a result, the device does not work qualitatively and you are tormented by the question of why the washing machine does not gain water. To correct the situation, you need to check the filter itself and part of the adjacent pipe for clogging.
• Hose clogged through which water is fed to the machine. If the water is recruited slowly, then the cause may be a hose, through which water is supplied from the water pipe to the unit. Disconnect the hose from the machine and wash it, pushing the hose to the hands to break the formed blockage. If you did not manage to rinse it, replace the part.

These are the most elementary reasons why the stylalka does not gain water in full. Household appliances of this type - a fairly complex device with an electronic control unit. We will analyze the most complicated reasons why a washing machine Beko, LG, Samsung, Ariston, Zanussi, Ardo, Indesit, Atlant does not gain water.

Complex reasons for lack of water in the

stylalky In addition to the above factors, there are a number of reasons for the lack of water supply. Most of them can be fixed only in the conditions of a professional service center.

The programmer or the

control module has broken. Electromechanical programmers are a very complex functional unit. The main defects of the high-tech unit arise in the contact systems of the control modules, because of the contact of the washing solution or directly with water. Also, the cause may be a short circuit in the external circuit.

Complex defect, of course, will cause you a lot of trouble, because the device must be sent to the service center and completely replaced. If the defect is not very complicated, then it can be eliminated at home. But only a qualified specialist can determine the complexity of the breakdown.

The valve on the water supply is broken.

Water is supplied to the household appliance under pressure, which is inevitably present in the water supply system. The opening of the flow takes place through a special shut-off valve, the valve. Its position is corrected by signals from the control module. If the intake valve is worn, deformed or covered with corrosion, the sterilka "physically" can not collect water.

Causes of failure can be:

• Filter grid clogging.
• Coil winding burned out.

Almost all coils are interchangeable. If the cause is a coil break in one of the valve sections, replace the breakage with a coil from another valve.

Valve testing can be performed independently, without removing them from the machine. To do this, you need a power cord with contacts and a switch. The first should be in insulating covers. Procedure:

1. Connect the valve inlet to the pipeline with a nominal pressure.
2. Apply voltage to the winding - this should open the valve.
3. Carefully observe how fast the valve closes after turning off the power.
4. If without water for some time the water is still leaking, this indicates that the flexibility of the cuff is lost. The item must be replaced with a new one.

Broken pressure switch

The water level sensor( pressure switch) is installed to measure and control the amount of water that is needed for washing. If the sensor fails, the machine is not able to determine the water level, and therefore - to make the washing process.

The whole thing is in the design of the pressure switch:

1. In the process of water entering the tank of the unit, the air in the lower chamber of the sensor and the hose acts on the flexible rubber membrane.
2. The diaphragm( diaphragm) is bent under the air pressure, the tip of the pressure pad presses against the spring of the contact group.
3. Once the desired level of water in the tank has appeared, the contacts switch and turn off the power from the water supply valves - the washing machine is put into the washing mode.
4. Once the laundry has absorbed the water entering the tank, the pressure sensor will again supply power to the water supply valve - the machine will drain the water to the required level.

Important! To fully verify the operation of the pressure sensor, disconnect the pressure hose and attach a piece of the same rubber or silicone hose instead. Blow it and, when switching the contact springs, you will hear distinct clicks. If you are convinced of a malfunction of the water sensor, then call the wizard to replace it. It will fix the breakdown, it means - you will no longer be puzzled by why the washing machine does not gain water.

If the inspection of the valve, head and filter fails to produce the expected result, consult qualified personnel for assistance. It is almost impossible to see what has broken down with the naked eye. So do not play with the technique in charades, because self-repair can often lead to more serious, and therefore - more expensive in terms of elimination, breakdown.
