Washer Repair Questions Answered

Quick answers to what Des Moines homeowners ask most.

What causes a front-load washing machine to display an OE error code?
An OE error code indicates that the washing machine is unable to drain the water within a specified timeframe. This is almost always caused by a clogged drain pump filter, a kinked drain hose, or foreign objects like coins, buttons, and pet hair lodged inside the pump impeller housing.
Why is my washing machine shaking violently during the spin cycle?
Violent shaking during high-speed spins usually stems from an unbalanced laundry load, unlevel machine feet, or failed suspension rods. On older units, worn-out tub bearings or broken shock absorbers are the primary cause. Continuing to operate a shaking washer can crack the outer wash tub assembly.
Why is there standing water left inside my washer tub after the cycle finishes?
Standing water points directly to a drainage failure caused by a worn-out drain pump motor, a blocked household drain pipe, or an electrical failure in the main control board. If the pump motor burns out or loses power, it cannot lift the water out of the drum into your home drain system.
Why won't my washing machine start even though it has power?
If the washer turns on but won't start a cycle, it is usually due to a faulty lid switch or door latch assembly. For safety reasons, modern top-load and front-load washers will not initialize a wash cycle or fill with water until the control board confirms the door is securely locked.
