Typical causes
Most washer repairs come down to a handful of parts. Here is how each one fails and how the technician confirms it.
It empties the tub after every wash and rinse. Small items that slip past the filter, like hair ties and coins, can jam it or crack the impeller.
Signs you'll see
A tub that stays full and a pump that hums without moving water.
How it's confirmed
The filter is opened and cleared, then the pump is tested with power applied.
The washer won't spin until the lock confirms the lid or door is shut. Latches wear and contacts burn after years of daily loads.
Signs you'll see
No spin, a door that stays locked, a door error code.
How it's confirmed
The lock's switch and solenoid are tested with a meter.
Two bearings behind the drum carry the load of every spin. Once the seal in front of them wears, water reaches the bearings and they start to roar.
Signs you'll see
Rumbling that worsens at high speed, rust streaks behind the drum.
How it's confirmed
The drum is checked for play by hand, and you hear whether the repair makes sense for the washer's age.

It depends on the washer's age, the failed part and what a comparable new machine costs. After the diagnosis you get the repair price and a straight view on whether it's worth doing.
Stop using it for now. Close the taps behind the machine, wipe up the water and book a visit. A slow leak can damage flooring or the ceiling below.
Water trapped in the door boot and leftover detergent let mould grow. Leave the door open between loads and wipe the boot. If the smell keeps coming back, the drain may be slow.
Sediment and minerals can clog the screens where the hoses connect and slow the fill. The technician checks them during the visit.
