Washer Not Working - The Most Common Fix

[@eseglorious4547]

May God Almighty continue to give you more inspiration Thank you very much for saving me from the stress my machine was given me Much love ❤️

[@christinethornton7451]

Absolutely brilliant! I thought I'd have to buy a new integrated machine but all it needed was shown on this video. I'm a 75 year old woman and even I could understand it. Just wonderful! Thankgoodness my sisrer advised me to check out problems via KZbin. Well done the young man in this video. From a grateful pensioner in Dundee, Scotland. xx

[@alfredwoodard6912]

Great advice. The repair guy said it is the pump and ordered one. I drained the water out and found all kinds on junk and a rag blocking the drain. Works great again!!! Thanks a million!!!

[@BrightAndAmazing]

Spent half a day checking error codes and running diagnostics, cleaned pump filter housing, but did not work, suspected it was a problem With the door lock on our zannussi zwf16070w1, BUT THEN i i came across your video, I cleaned pump housing as per your instructions , with machine tilted at an angle and drained excess water, and now running again, Thank you so much for the help

[@martinbeck8514]

You saved the day and probably a new washer! Never even knew it had a filter! Took it out, full of grit, 2 coins, 2 hair bands, one was wrapped around the pump cog, had to pull it out of it! Plenty of towels needed!! Now our washer is working again! Fabulous! Thank you so very much :-))

[@zamazee5047]

Thanks alot, I did exactly what you demonstrated and my washing machine is working just fine now. You saved me lots of money. Much appreciated. Zama from China.

[@DarrylPinto-rp3yu]

Thanks for recommending this fix. It worked instantly...whereas as a technician would've charged me just to inspect! Thanks again for your help.

[@jimmywilliam7832]

My washing machine was just making a buzzing noise and tge drum is not rotating nor the water flowing... cleaned the filter... worked as magic... thanks man

[@BillyDhillon]

I did this for the first time due to slow drain. Pulled out coins, lint and a sock. Drains perfectly now. thank you so much!

[@johnadeniyi7006]

Thank you very much @word of advice. I couldn’t believe it, after doing this, my washing machine that I have abandoned for two months started working! Amazing! Thank you again.

[@B750-k7n]

This worked in our case! My dad couldn't fix it and was sure I would never be able to do it but thanks to you I fixed it easy.

[@laurakidd2627]

I thought it was utterly broken. I was literally 10 minutes away from calling the mechanic....I did this and now its working perfectly. Thank you so much!!@

[@asifrashid119]

Thank u so much for solving the problem for thousands of people. God bless you.

[@soniaemmer-robson8269]

Fixed in 10 seconds after trying everything and scratching my head for ages!!😂 thank you so much.

[@brendadailey3137]

Anytime my front loader has ever glitched, it is the drain. Once, a child gave me a small shell (I’m a teacher) and I left it in my pocket. The shell had wedged itself in the little blade that pushes the water out. The second time, I made the mistake of being cheap and diluted my liquid soap. I had to drain and reset. My son is an engineer and he always says, “look for the most simplistic thing and work up the ladder and stay calm”. Both times I fixed it myself. The hardest part was moving the washer/ dryer combo out from the wall and cleaning up the water spillage as my front loader gives no clearance between the drain and the floor. I wish someone would install lockable wheels on these machines- it sure would make life so much easier.

[@mubzadz9538]

Bro, thank you!!!!!! I was a bit skeptical at first but it sorted the issue..£1 coin stuck in the filter. You've saved me some serious money. Thanks again!!! All the the way from the UK baby 👍

[@brok790]

WHAAAAAT??!!! 🤯😱- wow I’m SO TOTALLY excited to try this🤩… and I’m going to RIGHT NOW 🤗… i will comment again with an update! 👍🏻👐🏻

[@brunitoz]

My washer was spinning twice then the door kept unlocking. Decided to try this and ended up with a whole bunch of water coming out. Drained it and clean the filter a bit, which wasn’t too bad. Washer works fine now. Didn’t have to bother my condo maintenance man. Thanks!

[@Ojeramup12]

It's 1:00 am but I will try this tomorrow when I wake up. Thanks, I will let you know the outcome.

[@triedhardbutblessed]

After I already watched, close to a dozen of videos, with same topic, so far, your video is the best, like always. Thank you for keeping up with your high quality explanations. Great teaching talent always comes from a gift of God. Many blessings to you and to your business!

[@eringuexclark107]

OKay....okay. I've watched the video, gathered my confidence and I'm going in. Wish me luck!

[@mickweg8512]

How it go?

[@erinkay218]

You helped me fix my furnace and now you’re gonna help me fix my washer. Thanks! Lol.

[@naomisahlstrom]

I always wondered what that little door at the bottom was for! It’s our first time with a front load. Of course I had to check the filter, but ours is new enough it didn’t have much (yet)! Great video!

[@WordofAdviceTV]

Hi Naomi!! Hope all is well on your side of the state! :) Glad I could teach you what that little door is!

[@NikeNikster2]

Bro, you are literally my hero of the day-

[@rossrichards5936]

You just saved us a lot of money and time and frustration! Thank you so much! I cleaned it out and it runs like new. Never knew about that filter.

[@lorddabber3016]

Jay --- Also check the drain hose coming out the back of the washer! Mine was filled with some gunk - maybe because the tube had a dip (like a trap) before looping up into the wall hole. It became completely plugged so the point that my drain motor & impeller broke. After cleaning the drain hose (with a dryer lint brush --- that's some irony there!) and some dawn soap, it is now perfectly clear. Bought a new drain motor for $18 on Amazon and replaced it myself. All is good now!

[@nadnad3802]

Thanks a lot. I just clean the filter and got my washing running . U saved my money and time.

[@sky_deep]

may i know my washing machine cant wash at all .its because the filter or something else .please help me out

[@nadnad3802]

@@sky_deep there was something stuck in filter. I removed that it started running properly. Check the filter . If not filter then its something else.

[@sky_deep]

@@nadnad3802 okay i will check this morning .btw hi & thankyou from malaysia .

[@Jack.333]

You are a KZbin Legend forever Thanks for all your help

[@WordofAdviceTV]

Haha thank you John! I appreciate you watching and commenting!

[@barbaral9347]

Thank you so much!!! I hate to admit that I was not aware of the filter. My machine was at the point where it would'nt do anything. So, I followed your instructions (and yes it was full), put it all back together again and when I started the washer it was working again!!

[@mikegrok]

The title image solved it for me. My washer was rocking by 3/8 of an inch. So it would spin to medium speed, be unable to balance the load due to frame wobble, then never spin to full speed. When we bought the washer used it came with that foot missing and the stated condition of being unreliable. This is the first time for me in 5 years that it was unreliable. Sticking a piece of gravel from the driveway under that corner fixed it. Now to get an actual foot with a lock nut.

[@santoyo4563]

thank you so much for sharing your knowledge to us laymen, we would be lost without you.. 🤗

[@noellecasey9488]

Thanks so much, simple and did the job👍☺️

[@hindrizq6657]

Hi, thank you i fixed my washing machine based on your video, thanks a lot It was very useful

[@new_frontiersman9064]

Great video. Informative, precise, and entertaining. I like making old appliances work again and come to life when people give up on them or discard them. Sometimes the fixes aren't too bad. The cost of the part is how I weigh whether or not it's worth fixing.

[@oluchukwuonyekosor3672]

God almighty bless you for this information am a testimony to it my machine is working perfectly now 🙌

[@carlsrobey]

Good morning from Houston, Texas. The video information / advice regarding the front load drain and filter was absolutely correct. The tip on tilting the washer back excellent, there was more water than I expected. After clearing the filter the washer started operating. Initially, I had gone to the online manuals and the codes indicated out of balance; after following the suggestions without success, the last suggestion was to call for either telephone diagnostics and or a repairman. I watched two KZbin vides before finding yours; and decided to check the filter...Thank you. I will also check out your various advice videos.

[@sky_deep]

May i know my washing machine cant wash .its because the filer or something else .please help me out

[@bipialakaoyisaegerton3954]

Please guys my washing machine is showing me paused and play I really can't understand why

[@rbilardo47]

Another good video, a must know for homeowners. I always look forward to the joke at the end. Keep them coming lol.

[@WordofAdviceTV]

Thank you Robert! I appreciate you watching till the end, haha glad to hear you are enjoying the jokes!

[@pkpk2972]

thank u I fixed my washing machine as per your instructions & it worked

[@wayfaringoverlander]

Great video thanks. My great grandfather repaired washing machines during the Great Depression. His job had such good job security that he was the only man in his local church to own a car. Whereas my other great grandfather lost apartment buildings and properties and was reduced to little. So having this skill is valuable

[@thomasduffy1744]

Mine kept making that “on” sound but wouldn’t turn on. This did the trick. Thank you!!

[@KendiSharon-s3k]

What did you do for it to start working

[@asianguru1244]

Thank you for the tip,it was useful.I found a sock stuck in the filter. It’s working perfectly fine now

[@MichaelHall-rh4tz]

It's as much fun to read the comments as it is to watch the help video. I had to go check my washer after watching this. Thanks.

[@CT9905.]

Very informative, that is why I make it a habit to clean my filter after each laundry load.

[@jesicas8918]

Bless you hundred times -- what a super great help Without spending 100 s Sterling for a repair man

[@holtrussell]

Word of Advice TV Jay I was somewhat expecting you to release or announce the vaccine (heresy I know) for Coronavirus. Given you have all other world problems and challenges figured out, I’m surprised you don’t have a release on this Coronavirus. Maybe you’re saving that for a future video or working closely with President Trump in flowing that out to the American public.

[@WordofAdviceTV]

Hahaha, I actually wanted to post a video on the topic but it's best for my channel if I don't.. Especially since KZbin is demonetizing coronavirus videos and flagging channels that post on the topic. I think there is enough stuff already out there so no need to put my channel on the red list :)

[@holtrussell]

Word of Advice TV Interesting. There are maybe a few different ways to try and understand the motives there (both good and bad). None the less, good decision! I’m sure you have some interesting thoughts on the topic. Good thing is that you work in an industry that is relatively sheltered from the economic impacts. I don’t think you do new installs so you might see no change at all from a demand perspective. Aerospace - talk about changes! Impacts hit pretty quickly! Good job on surviving the apocalypse so far!

[@WordofAdviceTV]

@@holtrussell Thanks for supporting my decision! :) I may actually make a video on some of the things I bought in light of current events though. Want to share some of the trinkets I got and would be curious to know what all everybody else got. (Hopefully toilet paper wont dominate the comments... Sigh) Yes, luckily I am in a good industry when things like this happen and I can also enjoy making videos if I will be stuck at home haha. I have a feeling the apocalypse is still in it's early beginning stage though... If this will be a global economic collapse, crap will hit the fan. Hard. I hope you and family stay well and healthy! Keep calm and don't join the panic party :)

[@Mike15o]

Too bad the engineers that design these appliances design them have problems with time. You shouldn't have to take your washer apart to access these filters and make them work.

[@VideoExpert666]

100 percent! But that’s just how the world works now a days. A .10 cent part is keeping the company from making another sale. Because if the customer doesn’t know how to fix or someone who doesn’t have the time they will just get a new one. And 10 of 10 most of the time they will buy the same company appliance for whatever reason (color matching, function layout, etc.)

I knew the filter needed to be cleaned periodically, but I never knew it could stop the washer from working properly. My wife and kids normally do the laundry. So when the washer stopped draining water, I simply called the repairman. I’m about to cancel the appointment now.
