Candy holiday 80 DIY repair

Details: candy holiday 80 DIY repair from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

Candy Holiday80 worked for about seven years, the bearings were noisy four months ago, and yesterday the drum was dead.
I disassembled, took out the bearings, and the question arises - is it worth repairing at all. The condition seems to be nothing, only along the shaft under the inner bearing corrosion has gone. Is it possible to do this - is it worth it? In general, for the entire service life, this is the second breakdown
(the first was - heating element)
Professionals, tell me, how much does it come out after repair? I myself am not on this business - I am repairing the KKM.
Thanks in advance.

The answer is: If you correctly replace the bearings, then perhaps it will go away for another 30 years, provided it is used no more than 1 time per month.

For the price of two bearings and an oil seal you can't buy a new one, probably.

An old woman with a stainless steel tank works decently, although changing bearings is not a pleasant one, but it's worth it. I myself use a similar Zerowatt, I plowed for 10 years, Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repair

changed the heating element and the plastic handle of the hatch door, the bearings are still high.

fed, this is not an hour X33 works that long
Besides that the respected one described in such detail Alexzz, there seems to be nothing to add
please pay attention to two things
there are bearings with different accuracy classes, there is CKF and there is China, there is the USSR Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repair

I highly do not recommend the cheap stuff yourself, then you will regret it
if the nest is a little weakened, you can safely use autochemistry (in particular Loktide) there are a lot of mixtures, but I work a beast
a separate word about lubrication - generally accepted ones can not be used in any case,

SergeySM, Zerowatt Lady Tropic C42X, Alexzz here I agree with you myself for them I take the dear one that the cap with bearings is glued to the tank, I remember my first time talking with these models, iodine and bandage were very popular then.

Experts from the Kandy service center are sure that many errors occur due to incorrect handling. By the way, I recommend contacting EuroBytService if you need a really high-quality and quick repair of a washing machine of this brand.

It is good if the machine is equipped with a self-diagnosis function. Then the built-in controller itself will determine what the malfunction is and will report it to the display with an alphanumeric code.

Common faults include:
  • The machine does not start.
  • There is water in the drum.
  • The water does not heat up.
  • There is no drainage of water or it is not collected at all.
  • An incomprehensible noise or strong vibration is heard during operation.
  • Failure of the electronic module. With this problem, the machine will not work, even if it is connected to the network, the programs are not configured, the indicators blink chaotically.

The reason for the absence of warm or hot water during washing lies in a malfunction of the heating element. In this case, the self-diagnostic function will inform the user about the E05 error or blink the indicator 16 times after 5 seconds.

There are many reasons for the breakdown of the heating element.The most common is wear or a thick layer of scale on the heating element due to hard water.

How to check its performance and, if necessary, repair the candy washing machine with your own hands?

  1. Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repairThe back wall of the washing machine is removed.
  2. The heater shank with two wires will be visible at the bottom.
  3. Using a multimeter, you need to determine the resistance of the device. If it is 20-30 ohms, then it is in working order.
  4. If the ten is defective, you need to get it. To do this, unscrew the bolt between the wires, and the part is pulled out of the machine. Teng can get stuck, then it is difficult to reach it without the help of a rubber mallet.
  5. Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repairWhen installing a new heating element, the hole must first be descaled.
  6. The operability of the heating element is checked by turning the machine into heating mode.

Another reason why the water may not heat up is the breakdown of the temperature sensor. In this case, the machine generates error 05 or 5 flashes.

Door malfunction

A breakdown of the hatch locking device is indicated by the E01 code or the indicator blinks only 1 time. The reason may be Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repair

electronics, then it is advisable to use qualified help, or try to repair the door of the candy washing machine yourself.

To dismantle the lock, you will need to remove the hatch seal. To do this, use a screwdriver to pry on the clamp holding it. After removing the elastic, the two screws that secure the lock are unscrewed. The part changes and the machine is assembled in reverse order.

Drainage problem

In this case, the machine cannot drain the used water and displays the message E03 or flashes the indicators three times. What can be done?

  1. Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repairRemove the front panel at the bottom.
  2. Find the filter and substitute a low container, unscrew it counterclockwise.
  3. Clean and rinse with water.
  4. The filter is attached to the tank with a pipe. It also needs to be checked, since it is often clogged with various deposits. This can be done with a screwdriver. But, carefully without damaging the pipe.
  5. Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repairNow turn on the machine to drain mode and see if the pump impeller turns. You will see it through the filter hole - this is a part with blades. Hair, threads, wool are often wound around the impeller. If it is spinning, the pump is working. If it rotates, but at the same time the pump hums strongly and the impeller itself is shaking, then the problem is in it and jamming occurs due to its looseness. Here you will have to change the pump. Access to the pump of the Kandy washing machine is open through the bottom or pallet, which can be easily removed.

The inlet hose also needs to be cleaned. To do this, it is detached and cleaned with a cable with a brush.

An inlet filter is installed on it, in which sand and rust are often found. The problem in this part is accompanied by the highlighted error E02 on the display or two flashes of the indicators.

The pressure switch located under the top cover may fail.

This sensor stops functioning if the tube attached to it becomes clogged.

After cleaning it from dirt, blow it. If you hear a click, the device is in working order.

Bearing failure

If the bearings are broken or worn out, the machine emits a loud hum during operation. To get to them in the candy washing machine, you need to remove the top cover and pull out the tank. Kandy machines are compact, so the elements inside the equipment are located tightly to each other.

The algorithm of actions is as follows:

  1. Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repairHoses are connected to the tank, which must be all disconnected.
  2. The powder receptacle is pulled out.
  3. The counterweight is unscrewed.
  4. The belt is removed from the drum pulley.
  5. The wires are detached from the heating element.
  6. The engine gets out along the guides. All wires coming from it are pre-disconnected.
  7. Image - Candy holiday 80 DIY repairThe hatch is removed. For this, screws are unscrewed under the cuff, and the fixing clamp is pushed off with a screwdriver.
  8. The tank is disassembled into 2 parts.
  9. The pulley is removed from the drum shaft.
  10. The bearing is knocked out by light tapping. You can't hit the shaft! For these purposes, a wooden block is used.

11.The drum bearing is also knocked out.

New bearings are installed in place of old ones using a washer, nuts and a rod.

These instructions apply to machines with a split tank. Some models have one-piece tanks, then the process becomes much more complicated and it becomes problematic to replace bearings at home.

It is easier to repair the candy aquamatic washing machine, as it is equipped with a self-diagnosis system. To decipher the error code, you need to pay attention to the left indicator. After reading the instructions and finding out how many flashes are characteristic of a certain error code, you can repair the car with your own hands.

Code 1 means the hatch is blocked. In this case, you need to check whether the hatch is tightly closed. This code also means there is a problem with the controller.

Code 2 gives an error of water entering the tank - either it is not enough, or not at all. The reasons may be in the valve, controller, water tap, blockage.

Code 3 characterizes problems with the drain. The pump, drain hose, or filter and siphon may have broken.

If there is water in the drum after the washing program, it first shuts off the water supply, the panel in the lower part of the case is removed and the water is drained using the drain pump filter. After that, you can understand the problem. The pump is being checked.
