Sometimes situations arise when a Kandy washing machine filled with powder and dirty laundry does not turn on, not reacting in any way to any manipulation. Such cases, unfortunately, are not uncommon with units from this company, so it is worth considering in more detail the possible reasons why the Candy machine stops turning on, as well as solutions.
Damage not related to the machine
Before looking for a reason, why did the washing machine stop turning on?, in itself, it is worth paying attention to external factors. For example, a device shutdown may occur as a result of power problems. The occurrence of such malfunctions is influenced by the following reasons:
- The Candy washing machine plug is not plugged into the socket. The situation is quite funny, but it is precisely this that answers the question of why the device may not turn on.
- Turn off the electricity. Also a fairly common problem. To organize the operation of the unit, you will need to wait until the light is turned on.
- Knocking out traffic jams. To make sure that this is the reason, it is worth inspecting the general apartment panel. It may turn off due to a short circuit. To fix it, it will be enough to weigh the bag.
- Automatic switching on of RCD.The residual current device may turn on as a result of current leakage, and an electrician must be called to solve the problem.
- The socket is faulty. To check the outlet, just connect another electrical appliance. If the equipment does not turn on, this will be evidence of a problem. A broken socket will need to be replaced, which is usually done by an electrician.
Door faults
After inspecting the electrical systems, it is worth paying attention to the unit door. So, for example, if the Candy machine does not block the door, its functionality, namely its tightness, is impaired. The equipment stops turning on, which is why water can pour out during washing, flooding the floor around the device and increasing the risk of overheating of the wiring.
Therefore, before washing it is recommended check door lock, eliminate the malfunction if it is found.
Power cord and FPS
If everything is in order with the electrical network and the door is working properly, you can begin to inspect other components washing machine Kandy. You should start by checking the power cord. To do this, you will need to inspect the wire for the following signs:
- squeezing;
- reflow;
- combustion.
Also, in the absence of visible violations, the following diagram of sequential actions will help to check the functionality of the cord:
- It is necessary to disconnect the machine from the power supply.
- Make room next to Kandy's washing mashine.
- Remove the top cover.
- Find the place where the wire comes from.
- Disconnect the cable from the FPS and disconnect the cord.
- Use a multimeter to check the cord for breakdown.
Program switch and control module
Next, if no problems were found during inspection of the external and internal wiring, proceed to checking the program switch and a general system control module.
The easiest way is to replace the broken part when a malfunction is detected, however, often such repairs can be expensive and can hardly be called justified.
Other reasons
Below are additional reasons why a Kandy washing machine may stop working.
- The lack of water drainage in the Kandy washing machine is evidenced by wet items after washing, which should be slightly damp during normal operation of the device. The main cause of the breakdown lies in a clogged drain system, as well as a malfunction of the drain pump. In the first case, it is necessary to clean the system from debris that has gotten inside the pipe. The second option involves replacing the pump.
- Loss of tightness, the main symptom of which is a puddle of water under the Kandy washing machine. The reason may arise, for example, if the washing mashine door does not lock. If this is discovered, it is necessary to find the location of the leak as quickly as possible and begin direct repairs. It is worth noting that the electricity must be turned off to avoid the risk of electric shock.
- If the indicators do not light up during operation of the device, unexpected changes occur in the performance of the Kandy washing machine, which is why you have to turn it off ahead of time. Replacing indicators should be entrusted to specialists in this field, who will deal with the problem quite quickly.
