Washing machine makes about 15 of these noises 5 minutes into every cycle…any idea what is causing this? It has gotten a bit louder since this video

I feel like it is protruding more than it should but our inspector said it is installed correctly.

Last night we noticed a weird humming noise coming from the dishwasher and this morning I realized it never dispensed any water (detergent pod never got dissolved) and all of the dishes were still dirty. It would make a noise like it was trying to pump water in but no water would come out. I cleaned the filter in the dishwasher but after I put it back in it started making this noise. The filter should be installed correctly but maybe I messed something up?

Hello!

I have an LG WT715OCW top load washing machine. It's only about a year and a half old. We do laundry once to twice a week and use the recommended amounts of detergent and fabric softener.

For the last month or so we noticed these brownish flakes on our clothes and it started getting worse and worse. 2 sundays ago we had a repair guy come and steam cleaned the drum without removing it. We ran numerous tub clean cycles before washing clothes but the issue persisted. He came by again last weekend and took out the drum and steam cleaned it thoroughly. The issue persists unfortunately.

Now im reaching back out and no response. Is there anything else that can be causing this issue? I wanted to add that we also have used those Active brand washer tablets every month or so when we run the tub clean cycle.

Thank you!

I have a microwave which, when on, interrupts our Bluetooth baby monitor. Additionally, a phone inside it (while off ha) can receive phone calls.

Is this a concern about the shield being damaged? I'd hate to replace it only to find out that this is normal behaviour and not concerning. Hoping people in this sub know a thing or two about microwaves and damaged shields.

My Fisher & Paykel oven and microwave models OM60 Series 9 are stuck in demonstration mode. The screens are all touchscreen but I have a dial for navigating the menus, but I can’t see the demo disabling instructions anywhere online for these models…

Fisher and Paykel can only send a technician in 2 and a half weeks, and won’t give the instructions over the phone. I am hoping it is a secret combination of button pressing to turn it off.

If anyone knows how to disable demo mode on these ovens please let me know. Infuriating.

We just got this new dishwasher in our apartment and nothing on the top rack ever cleans. No matter how long or hot the cycle is. Bottom gets clean though. It’s brand new, nothing seems clogged because I checked the cycle midway through and water IS getting up there. We typically use Cascade Premium pods but I’ve been using Finish Ultimate since therw was a BOGO for them, would that matter at all?

Hey everyone,

My front-load LG WM3090CW is making washed clothes come out smelling like mold.

The issue seems to be persistent buildup behind/inside the rubber door boot gasket. The rubber itself is not torn or leaking.

I'm trying to decide the best path forward:

A: Clean existing boot: Pull off the current seal and do a deep bleach soak/scrub. B: DIY Replacement: Buy a new gasket (Gemini indicates MDS47123619 is the right one, could not confirm) and spring expansion tool to replace it myself.
C: Hire a Tech: Pay a professional to handle the tear-down and service.

Is deep-cleaning an existing boot worth the hassle, or does black mold always come back? How difficult is the DIY replacement on this specific LG series for a first-timer?
I appreciate any advice or experience!

Yes, I have tried many things (bleach cleaning/scrubbing the boot while in place, 5 tub clean cycles, etc), to no avail.

I would utilize the entire freezer for ice if I could.

Any suggestions?

So about two days ago the water and ice dispenser seemed to completely stop working out of nowhere. The control panel is completely out as well. None of the buttons work. Child lock isn't on either. However, the fridge and freezer still works fine. No signs of temperature change or spoilage. I don't think it's making new ice.

Tried unplugging it for 10 mins, twice now. Didn't fix. Anything else I can try? Thx.

I recently took apart my heat pump and filter assembly to fix what I assumed was a clog in the main vent. To my dismay it was clear. Why would my lint filter be getting wet like this? Is it a faulty RH sensor?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to diagnose a recurring F5 error on my Vestel VGS 60Y13 dishwasher (approximately 6 years old, regularly used for the past 4 years).

According to the manufacturer, F5 means insufficient water intake. However, my dishwasher successfully fills and washes before the error occurs.

What happens:

1. The dishwasher starts and takes in water.
2. It washes normally for several minutes.
3. It pumps water out.
4. It starts another washing phase.
5. I hear motor/water circulation noises.
6. The drain pump starts running.
7. A few seconds later, F5 appears and the cycle stops.

What I've already tried:

• Checked the inlet hose mesh filter: clean.
• Bypassed the kitchen sink siphon by draining directly over the sink rim with an open outlet: same error.
• Changed the routing of the drain hose several times.
• Confirmed that the machine can drain water.
• Haven't yet measured the incoming water flow or inspected internal sensors.

An unusual clue:

We experienced the same F5 problem previously. At that time, creating a downward U-shaped loop in the grey drainage hose immediately before its connection to the kitchen sink drainage appeared to fix the problem.

The dishwasher then worked again, but the error has now returned.

The dishwasher and a washing machine share the kitchen sink's drainage system.

I'm wondering whether the previous fix indicates a siphoning, drain ventilation or water-level sensing issue, or whether it was coincidental.

Questions for experienced repair technicians:

• Could the appliance detect insufficient water after successfully filling and washing?
• Is a faulty flow meter, pressure sensor, water inlet valve or water distribution chamber a likely cause?
• Could the drain hose geometry explain the temporary fix, despite the unsuccessful open-sink drainage test?
• Is there a simple diagnostic test to distinguish water loss from incorrect water-level measurement?
• Are there service diagnostics available for this Vestel platform?

A service visit would cost around €200 for diagnosis alone, so I'm hoping to identify the faulty component before deciding whether to repair or replace the dishwasher.

I can provide photos of the plumbing and a video showing the exact error sequence.

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

I would be grateful if anyone could give a preliminary diagnosis about the cause of this weird sound.

I have a Patton PCH4199 space heater that has a foam filter in the back and the filter is so old and like, falling apart that I want to replace it but I can't find a replacement filter from Patton. I guess they never made any for this one? I could use suggestions as to what to do because I don't need to replace the unit, it works fine. I just want a new foam filter in the back. I did buy an aquarium foam filter to cut to size and thinness because the back is where the air goes in so it doesn't get hot, at least to my knowledge. Would that still be a good idea?

Model: KDFA324SPS0 – Dishwasher Control Issue
I encountered this issue a few days ago and wanted to determine whether anyone else has experienced similar symptoms. The dishwasher is unresponsive to normal user input. Pressing the control panel buttons does not initiate operation or produce the expected response. However, the Control Lock function can still be activated by pressing and holding the designated button, and the unit can also be placed into diagnostic mode. This behavior suggests that the user interface is receiving power and retaining at least partial functionality. However, normal command inputs do not appear to be processed correctly. Potential areas of investigation include a faulty user interface/control panel, an issue with communication between the UI and the main control board, or a failure within the control circuitry. Has anyone encountered this specific failure pattern on this model, and if so, what was the root cause and corrective action?

Is this normal sound. This is the second step. The one before this is water. Then this sound. Then more water, then this sound again. And it repeats.

It hums doesnt spin. When i unplugged and hand turned it. It turned fine no issue. It says motor is issue per google but heard could be belt any idea?

Woke up this morning finding water around the water dispenser because the ice in the door was melting. Fridge and freezer seemed warmer than usual.

I pulled the fridge away from the wall and checked behind. It sounds like the compressor is turning on and humming. Feels warm. The fan next to it is spinning.

Went through the different diagnostics from the panel and everything seems normal there.

Lights turn on and the deli tray control are working so I dont think thats the issue.

Their is some air coming from the back of the fridge and it seems "cool" but obviously not cold enough. The freezer part had some air coming out but then seems to shut off when it shouldn't since it hasn't reached temp.

I put a thermostat in there and both are about 60 degrees. I'm giving up on saving any of the food so no rush now.

Any suggestions or anything else I can check before I call an appliance repair person?

Bonus: I found the water connection dripping all the way on the right at the valve. Not where the water line connects but an internal connection right after that. Who knows how long thats been dripping but there is some corrosion on the bottom of the fridge.

This is the model: https://www.manua.ls/kitchenaid/ksgg700ess/manual?p=7&page=4

It used to work fine. Then, it stopped heating up to the right temperature. It was way too cool. Then it stopped heating up at all, as far as I can tell. No fan turns on or lights or anything when I press bake, broil, etc. The stove still works (gas)

Also, before it stopped heating up the oven light wouldn’t turn off. Not matter what we did. It’s got a little digital interface to turn it on and off and it just stayed on, now it seems to be dead.

It's been over 24 hours and it's not very cold still. The compressor is making this strange noise. Is this normal. There's a noise, a beep or a ringing right before the chugging starts. I can't find anything about it. Anyone got any ideas??

Did a dryer load this morning, went to throw another one in tonight and dryer started making this sound, "see video". From what i see online they are pretty easy to pull apart was just wondering if anyone knew specifically what this may be! Any info appreciated!

only 5 years old. Used less than once a week. I live by myself. I have uniforms for work that work washes for me. Bought new, over $1,100.

Paid for a tech to come out says they generally replace both boards? Didn't even break out of voltmeter.

Reading through the flowchart, if all the user buttons work, the failure is in the motor controller board. Before I shred the thing and get a volt meter on it, anyone have an experience with this?
