Owners of the Carrier washers as well as those who use other brands don’t expect troubleshooting during the first years after a purchase. Nevertheless, five and more years old washing machines have a tendency to stop spinning or agitate. Today we will talk about solving the problem in washer Carrier MWMFL080CDR. In this article you will find common solutions for this washer.
- Check lid switch assembly. The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not spin. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test the lid switch for continuity. If the lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.
- Check the drive belt. Inspect the drive belt to determine if it is broken or if it is loose on the pulleys. If the drive belt is broken or loose, replace it.
- Door Lock Motor and Switch Assembly. The door latch secures the washer door shut during operation. Once the washer door is closed, the washer can begin operating. If the washer door is not latched shut, the door switch will prevent the washer from operating. If the door latch is defective, the washer will not spin or start. The door latch can fail either mechanically or electrically. Inspect the door latch for damage. If the door latch is damaged, or does not close properly, replace it. To determine if the door latch has failed electrically, consult your washer’s wiring diagram and use a multimeter to test any switches on the door latch for continuity. If one of the switches does not have continuity, replace the switch.
If your washing machine is still won’t spinning you may need to call out an engineer to take an expert look at it.
