You want to know how to repair your washing machine that is no longer working. First, remove the belt between the two pulleys and select the spin cycle. Normally, the drain pump should remove almost all the water in about three minutes. This will allow the washing machine tub to return to its initial height and the main motor to activate. If the pump is not working properly and the water does not drain, check if the capacitor is defective. To do this, unplug the machine and open the back panel. Locate the capacitor, which is usually cylindrical and black in color. visually check if the capacitor shows signs of swelling or leakage. If this is the case, it is likely defective and needs to be replaced. Before proceeding with the replacement, make sure you have the correct replacement capacitor on hand. You can find this information in the user manual of your washing machine or by contacting the manufacturer. Once you have the new capacitor, unplug the washing machine and remove the old defective capacitor. Be sure to note the position of the electrical wires before disconnecting them. Close the back panel of the washing machine and plug it back in. In this case, it is recommended to seek professional help to diagnose and repair your washing machine.
