🏠 GossTech: Your Trusted Washing Machine Repair Partner Across Kenya
A washing machine that refuses to spin can be frustrating. Whether you’re in Nairobi or other parts of Kenya, GossTech ensures professional, affordable, and prompt repair services. Below is a detailed guide on how GossTech handles such issues—from diagnosis to repair—across all major towns in Kenya.
1️⃣ Understanding the Problem: Why Your Washing Machine Is Not Spinning
Before diving into how GossTech handles repairs, it’s essential to understand potential reasons why a washing machine may stop spinning:
Possible Cause | Explanation |
---|---|
Broken or loose drive belt | The belt connecting the motor to the drum may be damaged or slipped off. |
Faulty lid/door switch | If the lid switch is defective, the machine won’t spin as a safety precaution. |
Malfunctioning motor coupling | Connects the motor to the transmission; a failure here halts spinning. |
Burnt-out motor | The motor that powers the drum may be faulty. |
Blocked or clogged drain pump | Prevents draining, thus stopping the spin cycle. |
Faulty control board/timer | Electronic failure may interrupt spin instructions. |
Imbalanced load or sensor error | Load sensor prevents spin due to imbalance or incorrect weight detection. |
2️⃣ How GossTech Will Diagnose the Problem
At GossTech, we follow a structured diagnostic process to ensure accurate identification of the problem.
🛠️ Diagnostic Procedure:
Step | Action by GossTech Technician | Tools Used |
---|---|---|
1. Visual Inspection | Examine belts, door latch, visible damage | Flashlight, screwdriver |
2. Error Code Scan | If electronic, scan for error codes using diagnostic mode | Multimeter, error code scanner |
3. Manual Spin Test | Manually rotate drum to check belt tension and motor resistance | Technician’s hands, spin gauge |
4. Electrical Testing | Test lid switch, motor, pump circuits for continuity and voltage | Multimeter, circuit tester |
5. Drain Check | Inspect drain pump and hoses for clogs or obstructions | Drain snake, pump tester |
6. Control Board Check | Verify output signals from control module | Oscilloscope, multimeter |
✅ Outcome: After diagnosis, GossTech will identify whether the problem is mechanical, electrical, or software-related.
