Common Washer Symptoms

  • Washer will not spin or agitate
  • Leaks under or behind the washer
  • Water left in the drum after the cycle

Common Dryer Symptoms

  • Clothes still damp after a full cycle
  • Cycles take two or three runs to finish
  • Outside of the cabinet gets unusually hot

What a Washer Repair Involves

Motor, belt and couplerIf the washer fills and drains but will not agitate or spin, the drive motor, belt or motor coupler is tested. Some direct-drive washers have no belt at all.
Bearings and tubA loud rumble or roar that rises with spin speed usually means drum bearings. It is the biggest washer repair, and a technician will talk through cost against replacement before starting it.
Inlet valve and hosesWater enters through an electric inlet valve fed by hot and cold hoses. Slow fills, no fill or a washer that keeps filling point to the valve, a kinked hose or clogged inlet screens.

What Gets Checked on the Dryer

Door switch and start circuitA dryer that does nothing when Start is pressed may have a failed door switch, start switch, fuse or control board. Checking power at the outlet comes first, since an electric dryer needs both legs of a 240-volt circuit to heat.
Airflow and the ventA long dry time is most often an airflow problem. A technician checks the lint screen housing, the duct behind the dryer and the exhaust hood outside before replacing any heating parts, because a restricted vent can make a healthy dryer look broken.

Most visits cover one machine; mention both if both are acting up. More: dryer not drying and dryer not spinning.

Before You Book in Oak Park

  • Can you look at the washer on the same visit if it is acting up too?

Washer & Dryer Repair FAQs: Oak Park, IL

What makes a dryer stop heating?
On an electric dryer the usual suspects are the heating element, a blown thermal fuse, a failed thermostat or a tripped breaker on one leg of the circuit. On a gas dryer, check that the gas is on, then the igniter and valve coils. A blocked vent can trip the safety fuse on both types, so it should be cleared first.
Can one technician fix both my washer and dryer?
Most appliance repair companies that service dryers also repair washers, and many will look at both machines on one visit. Mention both when you book so the technician can bring the right parts.
Which areas near Oak Park do these technicians cover?
The companies on this page are within driving distance of Oak Park. Each one sets its own service area, so check the distance shown and confirm your address when you call.
Why do my clothes come out damp?
Restricted airflow is the most common cause: a full lint screen, a crushed or kinked duct, or a clogged exhaust hood outside. Overloading and a dirty moisture sensor are next. If the vent is clear and the dryer still runs long, a technician can test the heating parts.
