Speaking of faulty washers, our old customer called in regarding her LG washer that was not washing the laundry detergent from soap dispenser. While she managed by putting detergent into the drum directly, it was an inconvenience non the less. When our technician arrived to customer’s home, first thing to check was inlet valve filters, fine mesh filter get clogged with sediment in the water and create low pressure. Filters were checked and they were indeed clogged. Once cleaned with brush the filters were installed back but pressure was still low and not enough water was getting to soap dispenser to wash soap away. Just in case soap dispenser was taken apart for cleaning as it sometimes too can get clogged with sediment and limescale build up. Once all other options were exhausted, triple solenoid valve (cold water valve) was replaced and water pressure retuned to normal indicating that one of the solenoids was faulty and did not open all the way. Washer was tested to confirm other functions work well and customer was left with a smile and relief that she has one less inconvenience in her busy life.
