Candy washing machine does not turn on

It is unpleasant when the washer, filled with powder and dirty linen, refuses to turn on and does not react to your manipulations in any way. But there’s no need to switch to hand washing: in most cases, you can determine the source of the problem yourself. Moreover, it is not necessary to open the unit and sort out the cords with parts. If the Candy washing machine does not turn on, then just check a few possible reasons. Detailed instructions and recommendations are below.

Non-machine related malfunctions

Do not immediately blame the machine. Most often, the washer does not work due to lack of power. This happens for several reasons.

1. The plug is not connected to the network. It is easy to rush to forget to insert the cord into the outlet, so the troubleshooting should start from the very beginning.
2. No electricity. It is likely that there is no light in the whole house.
3. The machine was knocked out. Check the appropriate machine in the dashboard. If it disconnected, it means that a short circuit could occur. It is important to cock the bag again, and the next time you knock out, call a specialist for help.
4. The RCD worked. There are two options: the residual current device “malfunctioned” or reacted to a current leak. In any case, you can’t do without the help of an electrician.
   
5. Defective outlet. To exclude such a version is easy: just turn on another electrical appliance, check the voltage with a lamp or a multimeter. A broken outlet will have to be replaced by removing the old one, stripping the contacts, installing a working one and carefully fixing all the terminals. There is an alternative option: move the washer to a functioning outlet and finish the wash.

It is better to screen out problems, focusing on the above list, moving from common and “mild” problems to rare and complex ones.

When checking the power supply, observe basic safety rules and, in the slightest doubt, consult a professional. And if the wiring is functioning properly, you need to consider other options.

Power cord and FPS

Also, the Candy machine does not turn on with a faulty power cord. However, its performance is easy to verify on their own. First, inspect the wire for crushing, melting, burning, or try to catch the smell of burning. If there are no visible integrity violations, we test for a breakdown:

• disconnect the machine from the power supply;
• free up space around the machine;
• remove the top cover;
• look for where the wire "comes out" from;
• disconnect the cable from the FPS;
• disconnect the cord;
• set the multimeter to the appropriate measurement;
• test the cord for breakdown.
  

A negative result speaks for itself - the cord is fully operational. Then we start testing the interference filter, which often suffers from power outages and burns out. To do this, you will have to compare the voltage values ​​at the “input” and “output”, and if there are deviations, replace the part.

Program switch and control module

If there are no problems with external and internal wiring, and the machine still does not start, you need to pay attention to the control panel. More precisely, on the program switch and control module. It is easiest to replace an old part with a new one, but in most cases such an expensive repair is not justified. The time-tested module is cheaper and more reliable if it is properly repaired.

True, it is impossible to repair the switch without special knowledge and practice. Therefore, it is recommended not to experiment and immediately contact the service department for repairing washing machines.

Detailed instructions on what to do if the Kandy machine does not turn on will help you quickly and easily diagnose the source of the problem, fix the problem and finish the scheduled wash.The main thing is not to rush to conclusions, but to thoroughly check and exclude all possible causes. And it’s better to call an experienced master who will dot the “i”.
