Reboot the washing machine

rebootRebooting or restarting the washing machine may be required for various reasons. However, not many people know how to restart the washing machine.

In addition, many are interested in whether it is possible to restart the program at all, will this affect the operation of the equipment? Let us dwell on all this in more detail.

Why do I need to restart the machine

Note that in the framework of this article By the term “reboot” we will only mean restarting the washing machine program. We will not talk about reloading the machine by weight, so as not to confuse the reader. So, restarting the washing machine may be required in a number of cases:

  • most often, the washer is restarted when there is a foreign object in the car that they forget to remove from the pockets of clothes, or when children put toys in the drum, in general, a quick stop of the machine and a restart of the program are required;
  • some require a restart if they need to report something to the machine;
  • sometimes it is necessary to change the selected program, for example, you had to put a delicate wash for woolen things, and you accidentally chose the “Cotton 700", After this, woolen things will definitely become worthless, so you cannot do without a restart;
  • Also, a reboot is needed if the machine stopped during the washing process due to a power outage. Some models of washing machines will continue washing after turning on the electricity and you can do without a reboot;
  • and finally, a reboot of the machine may be required in case of program freezes washing, when the machine stops responding to signals, wash and wring clothes. In some cases, such a malfunction is solved precisely by rebooting the system board.

Reboot Instructions

On most washing machines, a reset button is not provided, usually the button that launches the program performs the function of this button. Just do not confuse this button with the button on and off the machine.

Important! Before any manipulations with the washing machine, refer to the instructions, on different models of machines restarting may not be the same.

So, if you need to turn off the machine in order to change the washing mode, then you need:program start button

  • hold the program start button for 3-5 seconds;
  • wait for the car to stop, some models of cars drain before stopping;
  • carefully select the desired mode;
  • add powder if necessary to the compartment for funds;
  • press the start button.

If there is a need to pull something out of the drum of the machine or vice versa, then restarting the machine will also be accompanied by a drain of water. First, by pressing the program start button, the machine needs to be stopped for several seconds, and then drain the water in one of the ways:

  1. through a special hose near the drain filter;
  2. through the drain filter;
  3. select the spin mode when the “No spin” function is on, in 1-2 minutes the washing machine will drain water and stop, the door will unlock.

If you drained the water yourself, then you need to turn off the machine by first pressing the power button, and then unplug the power cord. Depending on the model of the machine, after 5-10 minutes the door will unlock and open. After the necessary thing is retrieved or reported, the launch is carried out by the usual manipulations.

Important! Do not pull out the power cord if you need to restart the washing machine without first turning it off. This can not only block the equipment, but also lead to breakdown and malfunction of the system board, and this is already an expensive repair.

In the event of a power outage, you must unplug the power cord from the outlet so that the control board does not burn out during a power surge while the power is on. When electricity appears, you can turn on the machine again.If there was no automatic reset of the program, the machine will continue to wash. In some cases, when turned on, the machine starts draining water and stops, after which it will be possible to restart the mode.

If the washer stopped due to an internal malfunction, and does not respond to pressing buttons on the control panel, then perhaps disconnecting from the network for a while will help to solve the problem. As a result of a reboot of the system board, you can try turning on the machine again. But do not resort to this method all the time, it is better to contact a specialist who will conduct an accurate diagnosis of the equipment and identify a malfunction, if any.

Thus, restarting the washing machine is not difficult at all. We have provided you with general instructions, but still recommend reading the instructions for your typewriter. Good luck

    I ask for advice! BOSCH machine maxx5 (10 years). After breaking the water supply fitting, the plumber put the car on the sunroof. When I fixed the breakdown, I turned on the spin. The machine began pumping water and began spinning the drum. On the monitor, the luminous digits “12-00 min” were replaced by “0”. Turned off the washer, set aside part of the laundry. The board does not turn on, the modes do not start, only the pump works and that's it. Tell me what to watch? Respectfully!
