It can be very annoying to have a washing machine that stops spinning all of a sudden, especially if it leaves you with a load of clothes that are drenched. You’re not the only owner of a DEXP washing machine experiencing this problem. There are a few common reasons why your machine might not be spinning as it should, and many users have experienced similar issues.
It’s wise to look into a few inexpensive fixes or replacements before you start worrying about more expensive repairs. You can save time and money by solving the issue quickly in many cases. Whether it’s an imbalanced load, a clogged drain filter, or something more complex, we’ll walk you through the process of identifying and possibly resolving the problem on your own.
You can take the appropriate action to get your DEXP washing machine back in working order by determining what might be causing it to stop spinning. With the help of this guide, you can troubleshoot the issue and save yourself needless stress by working through common causes and solutions. Let’s explore the information you require to restart your machine.
| Possible Cause | Solution |
| Overloaded Drum | Reduce the load and try spinning again. |
| Unbalanced Load | Rearrange clothes to balance the load. |
| Clogged Filter | Clean the filter to allow proper drainage. |
| Faulty Motor | Contact a technician to check the motor. |
| Drainage Issue | Ensure the drain hose is not blocked. |
What happened to the equipment?
A malfunction like this should never be disregarded. Yes, you can keep washing your clothes and then just wring them out with your hands, but doing so puts your home appliances at risk of breaking down even more and also reduces their functionality. Why does this issue even occasionally arise?
- The housewife activated the wash without spinning, or accidentally manually turned off this stage.
- The CM control module detected an imbalance in the drum, so it specifically turned off the spin for the safety of the system.
- There were problems with draining the waste liquid into the sewer, so the spin simply cannot start in conditions when the drum still contains water used during washing or rinsing.
- The tachometer is broken.
- The electric motor is out of order.
- A bearing unit malfunction has been detected.
- There is a foreign object in the drum that has blocked the free rotation of the container.
- A one-time failure of the control module has occurred.
You run the risk of further harming your broken household appliances if you keep using them.
Nearly every one of the aforementioned causes can be resolved on your own without the need to contact a service center expert. particularly if the warranty has already ended and you are not eligible for free repairs. The CM control module is an exception to this rule since issues with it can be very challenging to resolve without the right tools and repair experience. Let’s examine the most fundamental causes of spinning issues.
Select the appropriate mode
The most straightforward scenario is a poorly chosen work cycle. The home appliance in this instance doesn’t even require repair. Examine the device’s control panel. If the programmer is set to "Down," "Wool," "Silk," or "Difficult," or to "Wool" or "Hand Wash," then everything is in working order because none of the listed programmes are meant to spin at top speed.
Furthermore, it’s important to keep in mind that DEXP washing machines allow you to independently select the maximum and minimum numbers for the number of drum revolutions per minute. It’s possible that you just set the revolution count to 0 before you started working, in which case there was no spinning at all.
This theory is very simple to verify: just turn on the washing machine, start any quick cycle that involves spinning, and wait until the work is finished to see if spinning is present and of a high enough quality. You will need to give the device a thorough test if, despite everything, the clothes stay wet.
There are several reasons why your DEXP washing machine might not be spinning, such as an uneven load, a damaged motor, or a broken belt. In order to restore your machine’s spinning function, troubleshooting these common issues can help determine if a straightforward fix is achievable or if professional repair is required.
The drum is unbalanced
The imbalance of the drum is one of the most frequent causes of the lack of spinning. This can happen if the user has disregarded the guidelines regarding the maximum and minimum amount of dirty laundry that should be loaded into the machine at once. Clothes that have accumulated into a single, large lump during the working cycle may also have an impact on this. The control module will prevent the spinning from beginning if it notices this kind of activity.
Typically, washing machines with this kind of issue are those made five to ten years ago. The reason for this is that the latest models have unique sensors that regulate the drum’s balance, thereby averting system imbalance. Such a machine will simply stop the cycle and display an error code on the display if it is unable to handle the imbalance. How do imbalances in automatic laundry machines present themselves?
- When the washing machine finishes rinsing, it begins to intensively spin the drum.
- Each unsuccessful attempt will be accompanied by an extremely loud hum and knock.
- Excessive vibration will appear, due to which the device may begin to jump.
- At this point, the control module will cancel the spin.
- The system will move on to the next stage – drain the water into the sewer.
- The selected working cycle will end about 15 minutes earlier, because one of the planned stages will be skipped.
- The user will receive clean but wet clothes.
Fortunately, correcting the imbalance is a relatively simple process. If overload was the cause of the imbalance, all that needs to be done is open the hatch door, take out the extra clothing, and start washing again. It is therefore sufficient to add a small amount of laundry if necessary. You must stop the cycle and distribute the items evenly throughout the drum if an imbalance develops as a result of the items crumpled during operation. The only thing left to do is add a program.
Keep a close eye on the drum imbalance because it can harm the washing machine’s essential parts in addition to keeping you from using the spin function.
Since the control module takes some time to detect the imbalance, the washing machine may have time to either sustain minor damage or cause damage to the room where it is installed before the washing cycle is stopped. This is because when you jump and move around the room, the drum hits the tank walls and damages the shaft, bearings, and shock absorbers. As a result, it’s best to avoid allowing imbalance and to always fill the drum with laundry according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
While it can be annoying when your DEXP washing machine doesn’t spin, the problem might not be as serious as it first appears. Frequently, straightforward issues like an uneven load or a clogged drain filter are the cause. Without the assistance of a technician, these are simple to fix on your own.
But if standard troubleshooting fails to resolve the issue, a more complicated one, like a broken motor or worn-out bearings, might be at work. It is best to seek professional advice in such situations to prevent further harm to the machine.
Cleaning the filter and checking that the machine is level are two examples of routine maintenance that can help stop these problems before they start. Maintaining your washing machine will give you peace of mind every time you do laundry by ensuring that it runs smoothly and extending its lifespan.
