Haier washing machine does not spin

Haier washing machine does not spinIt is very easy to find out that your Haier washing machine is not spinning clothes. At the end of the cycle, the items in the washing machine will remain wet and water will drain from them. Usually in such a situation, after rinsing, the machine cannot spin the drum to the required 600-1400 revolutions, and immediately proceeds to draining.

What could be the reasons for such a malfunction? Which parts of the washing machine should you check first? Let's look into the nuances.

List of possible problems

You shouldn’t turn a blind eye to the fact that the automatic washing machine refuses to spin clothes. Of course, you can “unscrew” things by hand after washing, but this is not the best option. Firstly, you will have to waste your time and energy. Secondly, if you leave the washing machine without repair, it may become even “worse”.

Most often, Haier SMA does not wring things out for the following reasons:The washing machine does not always spin clothes

  • the user has disabled the spin option (perhaps a program has been selected that does not provide this function);
  • The intelligence of the machine detected the imbalance of the drum and, for safety reasons, canceled the spin cycle;
  • the drainage system does not work correctly (water is not discharged into the sewer, so the spin cycle does not start);
  • The Hall sensor has failed;
  • The SMA electric motor broke down;
  • problems with the bearing unit were recorded;
  • a foreign object has entered the drum and interferes with the free rotation of the container;
  • The electronic control module “fails.”

It is prohibited to operate the washing machine if there are problems with spinning - this is fraught with many troubles.

Most of these problems can be fixed yourself without calling a technician.You will only have to contact the service center if there are problems with the control module or if the washing machine is new and still under warranty. Let's look in detail at what to do with a machine that refuses to wring things out.

The wrong program is working

The most harmless reason is running a program that does not involve spinning. Automatic machine Haier will not spin the drum to maximum speed when turning on the delicate and hand wash modes, as well as the “Wool”, “Silk”, “Down” algorithms. Therefore, check to what position the selector has been moved.Hayer machine programs

All Haier washing machines allow you to adjust the spin speed from zero to maximum speed. Perhaps you turned off the function using the button, so the machine did not wring out the clothes and they remained wet.

To eliminate user error, turn on the machine, select any fast program that involves spinning, and start the cycle. Observe the operation of the device. If the situation with the washing machine refusing to spin things repeats, an in-depth diagnosis of SMA will be required.

There is an imbalance inside the drum

The automatic machine will not start spinning if there is an imbalance in the system. Unbalancing of the drum can be caused by non-compliance with the recommendations on the permissible load weight of the SMA and the “clumping” of things. The control module, noticing such a failure, stops the washing machine.

This problem most often occurs on Haier washing machines that were released more than five years ago. Modern machines are equipped with special sensors that monitor the situation and prevent imbalance. And if a problem is detected, the corresponding error code is displayed.

The imbalance on Hayer automatic machines manifests itself as follows:

  • Having finished rinsing the clothes, the washing machine spins the drum;
  • every attempt to achieve the desired speed is accompanied by a strong hum and knocking;There is an imbalance in the washing machine
  • the device begins to vibrate and “jump”;
  • spin is cancelled;
  • the washing machine drains the water;
  • the cycle ends 10-15 minutes earlier;
  • the laundry in the drum remains wet.

Dealing with imbalance is easy. If it occurs due to the machine being overloaded, simply open the hatch, take out some of the things and start the cycle again. When, on the contrary, there is too little laundry, “throw” more clothes into the washing machine.

Often, imbalance occurs due to things clumping in the drum. In this situation, you need to open the hatch and spread the clothes evenly in the machine. After this, you can start the wash again.

An imbalance not only cancels the spin cycle, but also threatens the washing machine itself.

While the intellect detects the imbalance and pauses the cycle, the machine will have time to “suffer” for a certain time. “Jumping” and hitting the drum against the walls of the tank are not beneficial for SMA. In such a situation, shock absorbers, bearings, and shaft deteriorate. Therefore, it is important to take measures to prevent imbalance, in particular, observe loading standards and prevent things from clumping.

The motor is not working well

The Hayer machine will not start spinning even if there are problems with the motor. A faulty motor will not be able to spin the washing machine drum to the required speed. And if the engine does not accelerate to a given speed, things will remain wet.

To check the Haier CMA electric motor, you must:

  • turn off the power to the machine;
  • disconnect the washing machine from the water supply and sewerage;
  • remove the rear wall of the case by unscrewing the bolts holding it;remove the back wall of the case
  • remove the drive belt from the pulley;remove the drive belt
  • disconnect all contacts from the motor;
  • remove the screws securing the engine;How to replace a washing machine motor
  • swing the engine to the sides and pull it out of the machine.

Next, the motor is inspected for damage. Usually the breakdown is noticeable immediately - you can smell the burning smell from the engine, and dark spots are visible. Insulation failure may also occur. Often the problem is worn out electric brushes - the graphite rods will have to be replaced.

If the engine visually looks absolutely normal, check the part with a multimeter. A resistance less than normal will indicate a short circuit, more - a break in the stator or rotor winding. In this case, the motor cannot be repaired; you will have to buy and install a new engine.
