Do-it-yourself beko 6108 washing machine repair

In detail: do-it-yourself repair of the beko 6108 washing machine from a real master for the site my.housecope.com.

Despite the fact that imported washing machines serve flawlessly for more than 10-15 years, users often turn to service centers to repair Beko washing machines.

In most cases, the problems are of a minor nature, so we suggest considering cases when you can carry out repairs yourself without any problems.

Having entrusted the inspection of the machine to an experienced master, you can be sure that he will quickly and professionally find what the problem is. But due to the high prices for services, many home craftsmen are trying to save money and make repairs to the Beko washing machine with their own hands.

Almost any SMA model lends itself to home repair: ELB 57001 M, RKB 58801 MA, LNU 68801, etc.

This approach is quite justified - often repairs cost exorbitant prices, and sometimes the price is such that you can buy a new machine. At the same time, even the most "killed" car can serve for several more years after being repaired.

Don't want to throw away your Veko machine and buy a new one? Try to figure out the problem yourself and fix it yourself.

The design of the Beko washing machine also determines the nature of its breakdowns. Consider the typical malfunctions of this brand of washing machines:

The water does not heat up to the set temperatures, the wash goes in cold water in any program. Or vice versa - the water overheats.
Water is slowly drawn into the tank or not filled at all.
The Beko washing machine does not start because the door does not close tightly enough.
There is water in the tub at the end of the wash (this may be accompanied by a strong hum).
The drum rotates with grinding, crashing, clanking and other uncharacteristic sounds.
Not a single wash mode starts - all the lights on the machine blink. Or the program works, the indicator lights up, but the machine does not wash.
The machine cannot be started with the power button (with the power cord plugged in).
Models with an electronic scoreboard issue error codes H1, H2, H3, H4, H5, H6 and H7. The machine does not work.

Important! There may be other signs of failure. We have considered the most frequently encountered among users of SM Beko in Russia.

As mentioned earlier, all malfunctions are accompanied by certain symptoms - from minor malfunctions to complete failure. The problem of a home craftsman always lies in one thing - how to connect the existing signs of a breakdown with its causes. Here you just need the knowledge and advice of narrow specialists.

Below we will summarize information about the main breakdowns.

If you know how to use a Beko washing machine, then you know that the water used up after washing is never clear and clean - this is the specificity of washing. To prevent dirt, threads, hair, etc. from clogging the pump, there is a special drain filter on the way to it, which mainly suffers from blockages.

Your task is to find this filter, which is usually located at the bottom of the washer, under a small hatch or behind a panel. How to proceed next:

Before removing the filter, do not forget to substitute a basin or place a rag under the machine, because the remaining waste water will surely pour out of the hole.

In a number of Beko models, along with the filter, an emergency drain hose is also included - with its help it is much more convenient to drain water into any container.

To remove the filter, simply turn it to the right.
Next, clean the filter by hand and rinse under the tap.
Armed with a screwdriver, you can also clean the pipe at the same time - it is usually also clogged with debris from the waste water.
Once you have tools at hand, do not rush to put them away - for prevention, clean the filter that is on the water supply (it is located at the point where the hose is attached to the back panel). Sand and rust from the piping slowly collects in this filter and eventually interferes with the normal flow of water into the drum.
After cleaning the filler filter, do not rush to put it back in place - also check the drain pump. Often, Beko's washing machines, during self-diagnosis, find a pump breakdown and signal this using the H5 fault code. But with some breakdowns, the controller may not see minor violations - such as a loose impeller (can be recognized by hearing a hum).
To check the pump, start the drain mode and look through the hole in the filter plug to see how the impeller behaves. If it rotates, then everything is in order, and if not, then you need to clean or even replace the pump.

To eliminate such a problem, you will also need at least partial disassembly of the Beko washing machine, but more on that below.

First, let's say that one of the most vulnerable nodes in the SM is a thermoelectric heater, simply a heating element. The mineral salts present in the water crystallize under the influence of hot water and settle on the heater in the form of a familiar scale - like in a kettle. Plaque does not allow heat to pass through, so the heating element does not give it to water and burns out.

If there is no scale, you have soft water, or you use special products, this does not mean that the heater could not burn out. The heating element has its own resource of production, and, perhaps, its time has just come.

If the heating element fails, you will learn about it by errors H2 and H3. To be 100% sure what happened to him, first get to the heater. In some Beko models it is at the back, in others at the front.

So, how to disassemble a Beko washing machine, find a heating element, check and replace it, read on:

If the heating element is in front, then in order to remove the front panel, you need to remove the hatch cuff. To remove it, proceed carefully - if something goes wrong, then your activity is fraught with damage to the cuff and leaks.
You will not see the heating element in its entirety - only its shank with two contacts and wires going to them.
Disconnect all wires.
Take a tester and measure the resistance. Typically 25-30 ohms are normal. If the indicators are different (for example, infinity), then the breakdown is obvious.
Remove the heating element by unscrewing the nut from the bolt that holds it under the drum.
Clean the installation site of debris and deposits.
Install the new heating element in the reverse order, reconnecting all the wiring.

This video shows, in strict sequence, how to remove, check and replace the heating element:

If the heating element turned out to be Spanish, then you need to check the temperature sensor (thermistor). You will find it under the top cover. How to get and check the sensor:

Remove the top cover by unscrewing the screws.
Dismantling of the sensor is carried out with the removal of the cuvette for detergents and the control panel - all this interferes with getting to the element. Once you reach the sensor, free it from the wires.
The resistance measured by the tester should be 4.7 kOhm in room conditions.
Heat the sensor in a glass of warm water - after that the readings should drop. If this does not happen, the sensor needs to be changed.
The installation of a new sensor is carried out in the same way as removal, only proceed in the reverse order.

If you have the knowledge and experience in repairing electrical devices, then you will quickly eliminate breaks in contacts or their oxidation. You only need a diagram of the Beko washing machine - you will find it in the manual or on the manufacturer's website, indicating the model of your CM.

As for electronics, everything is ambiguous here.

Repair or replacement of an electronic controller (control board) requires specialized knowledge and rich experience.

Considering that an electronic module can cost as much as a third of your washing machine, it is not profitable to engage in amateur activities.Especially if the board needed minor repairs, which any master will perform for little money. If you "condemn" the module, then you will have to buy a new one, and an innocent breakdown will result in complex and expensive repairs.

Remember that it doesn't matter what characteristics your machine is designed for - they break in exactly the same way. If you received a 5 kg Beko washing machine, the faults will be the same as in a similar 3 kg model. To prevent the Beko washing machine from breaking, we advise you to use the operating instructions and follow the rules prescribed there.

BEKO washing machines of the 6000 series make up the most massive range of Arcelik A.S. products sold in recent years on the Russian market. This range includes both simple products and models with a wide range of functions, produced both in a version with a depth of 54 cm and a dry load of 5 kg, and in a "narrow" version - with a depth of 45 cm and a dry load of 4.5 kg.

High consumer qualities, simplicity and reliability of the design, interchangeability of components and ease of repair operations make the machines of this series easy to use and maintain.

Below are the technical parameters of the 6000 series washing machines that have the same command apparatus (KA), electric motor, etc., and a common electrical circuit. The only exception is the WBF 6004 XC model, where there is no adjustable thermostat (instead there is a “wash in cold water” function), the spin speed is 400 rpm and, accordingly, there are differences in the configuration and layout. The machine of this model is discussed separately in the next paragraph.

Many of the technical data and service tips provided here also apply to washing machines. BEKO previous years of production (models Y-2312C, Y-2416, Y-3350) and LG washing machines (models WD-6003C, WD-6004C, WD-8003C, WD-8004C and WD-1004C).

Many consumers note the reliability of washing machines that were manufactured 10-15 years ago. But even for such machines, the working resource is not infinite and they finally break down. Repair of washing machines Beko, Indesit, Ariston and other brands is far from always justified and you have to buy a new machine.

But in some cases, the problem is not so serious, it can be eliminated with your own hands, thereby prolonging the life of your beloved "home helper". That is why we will talk in this article about typical breakdowns and repair of Beko washing machines.

Experienced specialists in the repair of washing machines are able, by looking at the operation of the equipment, to determine which unit or element is broken or is about to break and needs to be repaired. It would seem that if there are problems with your machine, call such a specialist from the service center, and he will deal with the cause of the breakdown, and if you are lucky, he will fix it on the spot. Everything is quick, easy and without unnecessary headaches, and most importantly, in some cases such an act is quite justified.

But there is one "but", the call of the master and his repair services cost money, and a lot. It often happens that repair services are more expensive than the real cost of a Beko automatic washing machine and other brands of machines. It's a shame to give that kind of money for old junk, especially if there is no way to quickly buy a new typewriter. There is only one way out - to try to fix the breakdown with your own hands. But for this you need to correctly identify the breakdown, which will help the "symptoms" of malfunctions of Beko washing machines.

The water is not heated, and washing takes place in cold water, or, on the contrary, the water heats up very strongly, not in accordance with the temperature set by the user.
Water is poured into the tank for a very long time or not at all.
The hatch does not close completely and therefore the wash does not start.
After the end of the wash, the water does not drain and this is accompanied (or not accompanied) by a strong hum.
The drum of the Beko washing machine rotates with a strong grinding, clanking and other extraneous sounds.
It is impossible to start any washing program, because the machine blinks with all the lights after switching on, or the program is set, but does not start.
The machine does not turn on from the button, although the power cord is plugged into the outlet.
Beko's machine, which has a display, issues an error code and "refuses" to work.

Note! There may be more symptoms of malfunctions, but most often users have to deal with the above.

As we have already noted above, malfunctions of washing machines give themselves out as external "symptoms" of improper operation or even failure. But the problem is how to relate these symptoms to a specific breakdown? This is where some knowledge and expert advice will be required, let's summarize them in a thesis.

If you see that the wash takes place in cold water, even though according to the program the water should be warm or hot - this may indicate a breakdown of the heating element or control board. The same conclusions can be drawn in the event that the water is constantly overheating, that is, the user sets the temperature to 30 0 С, and the system brings it almost to a boil. In the event of overheating of the water, the probability of a malfunction of the control board is even greater than a malfunction of the heating element, but both elements must be checked.

When starting the wash program, the machine should start pouring water into the tub. This happens with varying intensity, depending on the program selected by the user. To see the process of filling with water, it is enough to look through the hatch window. But if you see that 20-30, or even 40 minutes pass, the drum rotates slowly, but water does not flow into the tank, or even time passes and the machine freezes, stopping the execution of the program and giving out a certain error code. There may be four reasons for this:

there is no water in the water supply system - this fact is easy to check by opening any tap;
the water filter located at the base of the inlet hose (if any) is clogged, therefore water does not flow into the machine;
the filler valve has broken;
defective control unit element.

The Beko automatic washing machine is designed in such a way that it will not start the washing program until the hatch is closed to the end and the blocking device sensor sends a corresponding signal to the control board. If the hatch does not close or seems to be closed, but the washing program is still not activated, it means that either the locking device has broken and does not hold the hatch, because of this, the sensor cannot be triggered, or the sensor itself has broken.

For your information! If there is a problem with the door locking device, try to gently press down on this door with your knee and restart the wash program, perhaps the locking hook simply does not fully enter the counterpart and does not lock.

After the end of the washing program, the washing machine should drain the soapy water and pour fresh water for rinsing. This process is accompanied by the hum of the drain pump. The water is drained out rather quickly, after which the machine starts to draw clean water. If the machine, after a fairly long time, cannot drain the water, and then freezes, or it tries to drain the water, the pump hums, but it does not drain, the problem is:

in the pump;
in the control board;
a blockage in the drain hose or drain.

If the machine is operating very noisy, the drum rotates with a terrible clang, rattle and bang, it is very possible that the bearings are broken. or just a foreign metal object got into the tank, got stuck between its wall and the drum wall and wedges. Such a breakdown requires an immediate shutdown of the machine and taking measures to eliminate the problem.

Also, the machine may not turn on at all or, after turning it on, start blinking with all the lights, and this repeats itself from time to time and turning the machine on / off again does nothing. In this case, it can:

break the on / off button of the washing machine;
break the control unit;
break the power cable.

It is best if the Beko washing machine with a display does not just freeze, but generates a system error with a specific code. The manufacturer has provided error codes so that the user can identify the breakdown without contacting a specialist. Description and interpretation of these codes are presented in the table below.

In theory, all Beko automatic washing machines can be repaired, no matter how many kg their drums are loaded, how old they are and whether they have displays or control panels. But in practice, problems often arise, either the repair cannot be done by hand, or it is not advisable due to the high cost, or there are no suitable spare parts available. In any case, if you find a breakdown and undertake an independent repair, you need to take these factors into account in order not to end up losing money, losing time and money.

Important! For example, replacing the bearings of a washing machine sometimes takes hours from a specialist, calculate how long it will take you, if at all you can make the replacement correctly.

Experts strongly recommend undertaking only the simplest repairs, which, for example, are associated either with the replacement of units, or with the elimination of blockages. It is better to leave the rest to the masters, because there is a risk of spoiling something, and this, again, will result in unnecessary expenses. So, which of the typical breakdowns can you fix yourself?

Clean the drain filter to remove any debris and dirt that may interfere with the normal operation of the machine.
Replace the drain pump, but only if you are convinced that the old one is out of order.
Check and replace the inlet valve. To do this, you will also have to make sure that the problem is not with the control board.
Replace the heating element.

Teng breaks down on Beko's washing machines quite often, especially for some reason on domestically produced models with a load of 6 kg. Replacing it yourself is not difficult, the main thing is to perform the following actions in accordance with the recommendations of specialists.

Teng in Veko washing machines is located in the back of the tank, which means the first thing we do is remove the back wall by unscrewing a few bolts.
Removing the wall, we see a large round wheel - this is a pulley, just below two large contacts sticking out of the tank - this is a ten.
We take a suitable key and unscrew the fastening element holding the heating element, disconnect the wires from the contacts.
Carefully, but with effort, we pull out the heating element from the groove.
We purchase the same heating element and continue working.
Carefully insert the new heating element into the groove and screw it on.
We connect the wires to the contacts, put the back wall of the machine in place and check the operation of the new element.

Summing up, we note that Beko's washing machines, in general, are distinguished by a fair amount of reliability, nevertheless, they, like other devices, break down. Inviting a specialist is an overhead, so this should be done only if the breakdown is complex, in all the rest you can try to save money by doing repairs yourself.

The washing machine is considered one of the most important types of equipment in every home. CMAs from the Beko company, produced in various types at reasonable prices, are popular. Like other equipment, cars from this company are not considered eternal and can also break down at the wrong time.

The masters claim that the VEKO machines are equipped with not very high-quality parts, which include a management board, a temperature sensor, and a relay. The repair of such machines does not always justify itself, and the consumer is forced to purchase a new washing machine. But sometimes the problems are not too serious, it is quite possible to eliminate them on our own.So it is worthwhile to deal with typical failures and understand how the repair of Beko washing machines is carried out.

Professional repairmen of washing machines can, after observing the working equipment, name a unit or element that has failed or will soon break down and will require repair. Everything is simple - problems have begun with a washing machine, you immediately need to call a specialist and a workshop so that he can identify the cause and, with a successful combination of circumstances, carry out repairs on the spot. It seems that everything is easy and simple, and there is no headache. Yes, and such an act in some situations is fully justified.

But there is one caveat - a call to the master's house will cost you a tidy sum. It often happens that paying for repair services is more expensive than purchasing a new automatic washing machine. It is a shame to pay money in this case, especially when there is no opportunity to quickly make a new purchase. But there is one way out - to carry out the repair with your own hands. True, you will have to correctly determine the failure, and the main signs of breakdowns will help in this:

there is no water heating, or it heats up very much, violating the set temperature regime;
water enters the tank for a long time, or does not drain at all;
the door does not close tightly, which does not allow starting the washing process;
after the process, the waste water does not go into the sewer, the machine hums strongly;
when the drum rotates, a strong grinding, clanging and other extraneous noises are heard;
not a single program starts, because after switching on, all the lights on the panel blink. The second option - the program can be exposed, but not activated;
the washing machine from the start button does not turn on;
the display shows an error code.

If you notice that the washing process takes place in cold water, violating the set program, you can suspect a breakdown of the heating element or the control board. A similar conclusion is reached when water overheats, practically reaching its boiling point. Most likely, the whole problem is in the board, but the heating element also needs to be checked.

After starting the program, water should begin to flow into the tub for washing, and the intensity of this process depends on the set program. But when you do not visually observe the water in the tank, and the drum rotates with dry things, or after a while the machine simply “freezes”, then you should look for one of the following reasons:

there is no water in the water supply;
clogging of the filter located at the base of the intake hose;
the water intake valve has failed;
breakdown of the control unit.

The BEKO machine is designed in such a way that it will never start washing until the door is closed tightly and a special sensor-blocker sends the required signal to the control board. If the hatch does not close at all, or it seems to be closed, but the wash has not started, it is necessary to inspect the blockage. It may have broken down and cannot hold the door. The second problem is the sensor itself. If it's all about the latch, try pushing lightly on the hatch and try to activate the wash program.

When the washing process is completed, the machine must drain the dirty water and draw in fresh water in order to rinse. This process is accompanied by a hum produced by the drain pump. The water is drained out quickly enough, then the machine takes in a new amount of liquid. But if some time has passed, and the washing machine has not drained the waste water and "hangs", or the pump hums, but the water does not come off, then problems should be looked for in:

pump for draining water;
a board responsible for managing processes;
a blockage in the drain hose or sewer pipe.

When the washing machine emits a characteristic clang, rattle and knock during operation, it is quite possible that the bearings are out of order, or a foreign object has got into the tank, getting stuck between it and the drum. In this case, the machine should be turned off immediately and all measures should be taken to fix the problem.

The SMA may not turn on at all, or it blinks with all the lights, and turning it on again does not give a positive result.In this case, the problems may be related to:

breakage of the starting button of the machine;
failure of the management block;
a break in the power cord.

The best option is when the washing machine not only refuses to work, but gives out a certain error code. With its help, you can immediately understand what the problem is.

Let's figure out how to repair Beko washing machines on our own.

You should be aware that after washing on a machine, the waste water is not clean and transparent. To prevent various small debris and dirt from clogging the pump, a special filter is installed in front of it, which in most cases becomes clogged. The main task is to find this element, which is usually located at the bottom of the machine, under a small hatch or panel.

Further actions should take place in the following sequence:

To cope with such a failure, you will have to partially disassemble the washing machine again. But first, it should be noted that in all machines, the thermoelectric heater is among the weakest units. People call it a simple word - heating element. The mineral components in the pipes under the influence of hot water begin to crystallize and accumulate on the heater with ordinary scale. Plaque does not allow heat to pass to the water, so the heating element burns out. But if the water in the pipes is soft, and scale does not appear, or you use special means, then the heating element is still able to burn out, since it has its own working resource.

In order to be sure exactly what happened to the heating element, you need to get to it. The peculiarity is that in different models it is located both in the front and in the back. For the first case, the actions are as follows:

the front panel of the machine is removed. But first it is necessary to remove the cuff from the door. You must act carefully so as not to damage it;
in front of you there will be two contacts with wiring connected to them, which must be disconnected;
using a tester, you need to check the resistance. At the norm, its value will be from 25 to 30 ohms. In other cases, we can confidently assume that the heating element has failed;

unscrew the nut from the bolt holding the heating element under the drum, carefully pull out the heating element;
we clean the place for its installation from plaque and accumulated debris;
we install a new analogue, we connect the wires.

If the heating device is working properly, check the temperature sensor located under the top panel.

unscrew the screws and remove the top panel;
the sensor is dismantled along with the detergent tray and the control panel, since all this creates obstacles in order to get to the element of interest to us;
having opened access to the sensor, it is necessary to disconnect all wires from it;
check the resistance. Normally, it should be 4.7 kOhm;
the sensor must be held in a container with warm water - the resistance indicator should decrease. Otherwise, the element must be replaced;
the new sensor is installed in place, all work is carried out in reverse order.

DIY electrical and electronics repair.

If you have special knowledge and the necessary experience in the repair of electrical appliances, then you can eliminate contact breakage or terminal oxidation rather quickly. All that is required is the electrical wiring diagram of the machine, which can be found in the instruction manual.But with electronics, not everything is so simple. Repairing or replacing the management board requires specialized knowledge and experience. Considering the cost of a new module, you should not try to repair it yourself. It is better in this case to invite a master who will do everything himself.

Vibration of the washing machine.

During the operation of the unit for washing things, in particular - during the spinning cycle, the machine gives out a strong vibration, starts "jumping" in different directions. Pay attention to how much laundry is loaded.Vibration is possible if the maximum rate is exceeded. Another recommendation is to check how correctly the support legs of the MCA are set. They are leveled so that the apparatus does not wobble. Experts advise using special stands when installing the machine.

As a result, we can conclude that the BEKO washing machine is quite reliable, but it is also capable of breaking. Calling a foreman can be quite expensive, so you need to try to carry out the repair work yourself.

Be aware that if you are a user of a Beko washing machine with a maximum load of five kilograms, then all its faults will be similar to models designed for three kilograms of things. And in order for the machine to work flawlessly for a long time, we recommend that you carefully study the requirements of the operating instructions and follow all of its rules.

A fairly common problem is the rubbing of the hatch cuff, water seeps into the hole, and taking into account the tight contact of the internal parts, it reaches the UBL, both the cuff and the UBL will have to be changed. It should be understood that the work of the master can last all day, because in many washing machines, in order to change the bearing, you will have to disassemble the equipment by screw. In general, the replacement of any part is difficult, since the elements and assemblies are located in tight quarters, you need to work almost blindly. It should be noted that the cost of work varies from breakdown and the time spent by a specialist. Replacing bearings sometimes takes 40 minutes, and sometimes up to 6 hours. The price is determined by the master after a thorough diagnosis. The installed spare parts are covered by a 3-12 month warranty, it applies to parts replaced during repairs, as well as work performed. In case of repeated breakdown of the replaced part, the master will perform the work again - completely free of charge.

The prices for the repair of washing machines are made up of the cost of work and the cost of spare parts. Spare parts have different prices for different brands and models, and even for the same brand, the cost may be different. For example: for a Bosch washing machine, a cuff can cost from 1,500 rubles. up to 8000 rubles .. It all depends on the model and region of production of the washing machine.

A washing machine, like any other household appliance, likes to break down at the most inopportune moment.

But do not panic right away: if your unit is manufactured under the Veko brand, you can easily fix some malfunctions yourself.

And our article will help you, in which we will discuss the repair of the Veko automatic washing machine with our own hands.

To better understand which malfunctions the Beko washing machine is most susceptible to, you should take a closer look at the failure statistics collected by the service centers. According to their observations, the following breakdowns most often occur in these units:

Accumulation of dirt in the drain line or failure of the drain pump - 30% of cases.
Malfunctions of the electronic module - 20% of failures. The statistics are spoiled by inexpensive machines of this brand, in which the Invensys board is installed. The inferior material it is made of is fragile and can crack, leading to rupture of the tracks. Most often, the semiconductors for controlling the heating element, filling valves, and an electric motor are affected.
The temperature sensor or heating element fail in 15% of cases.
Leaks - in 10% of cases.
The wear of the brushes of the electric motor or the rupture of the drive belt is 10%.
The appearance of extraneous noise during operation - 10%.

This phenomenon is most often caused by the ingress of a foreign object, breakage of a shock absorber, or destruction of a bearing.

Not every breakdown of the washing machine can be fixed on your own, but it is quite possible to clean the filter or replace the heating element yourself. Whirlpool washing machine: do-it-yourself repair of the main malfunctions of the machine.

Do you own an Indesit washing machine? Then the following article will be useful for you: https://my.housecope.com/wp-content/uploads/ext/740/cancliz/mnogokvartirnyie-doma/santehnika/stiralnaya-mashina-indezit-neispravnosti-remont-svoimi-rukami. html. Algorithm for troubleshooting the unit and ways to eliminate them.

In many cases, the user can reanimate the washing machine on their own, even without special skills. Let's consider several situations:

It is clear to everyone that the waste water does not differ in crystal purity - this is the specificity of the washing machine.

To prevent dirt from accumulating in the pump, a drain filter is installed in its path - it is it that clogs up most often.

Deal with this problem as follows:

First you need to find a drain filter, which is always located at the bottom of the machine behind a decorative hatch or panel.
Now you need to substitute a sufficiently capacious container under the car, into which we will pour the waste water.
In some models of Veko brand washing machines, there is an emergency water drain hose next to the drain filter. If there is one, it should be used - it is more convenient to drain the water than through the filter hole.
The filter should be removed by unscrewing it counterclockwise, thoroughly cleaned and rinsed under running water.
Using a screwdriver, you can also clean the pipe in which the filter was installed - usually it is also heavily clogged with dirt and silty deposits.

Since I had to take up the tools, at the same time, for the purpose of prevention, you can clean the filter on the water supply, which can be easily found at the place where the inlet hose is attached to the machine body. Sand and rust particles that accumulate in it over time can impede the collection of water.

After cleaning the drain filter, do not rush to reinstall it, first you need to check the operation of the drain pump. In fact, the Veko washing machine, thanks to the built-in self-diagnosis function, in many cases can track the pump malfunction by itself, displaying the "H5" error code on the display.

But there are breakdowns that the machine “does not see”, for example, wedging of a loose impeller (the appearance of a strong backlash can be guessed by the characteristic hum).

To check the pump, you need to start the machine in drain mode, observing through the hole in the filter plug behind the impeller. It should rotate. If this does not happen, the pump must be cleaned or replaced.

Heating element is a very vulnerable element in the washing machine, since due to the high temperature the calcium and magnesium salts present in the water actively crystallize on it in the form of a solid deposit.

This plaque (scale) retains heat like a fur coat, so the heating element overheats and burns out.

In the absence of scale, it can also burn out - from the depletion of a resource, like an ordinary incandescent lamp burns out. The machine can signal about problems with the heater with the codes "H2" (break of the heating element) and "H3" (the heating element is constantly on).

To accurately determine the state of the heating element, you first need to get to it. In some models of Veko machines, for this you need to remove the back panel, in others - the front.

To remove the front panel, it is necessary to dismantle the loading door seal. It must be removed very carefully - the slightest damage will lead to leaks.

The heating element is detected by two contacts in the lower part of the tank with wires connected to them. Disconnect the wires and use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the heater contacts. Normally, at room temperature, it should be 25 - 35 ohms.

Other readings (usually "infinity") indicate a malfunction: the heating element must be pulled out by unscrewing the nut holding it (between the contacts) and replaced with a new one, thoroughly cleaning the mounting hole from the inside from scale.

It so happens that, contrary to expectations, the heating element turns out to be serviceable. Then you need to check the performance of the temperature sensor, which is located under the top cover (to remove it after unscrewing the screws, you need to move it back a little). At room temperature, its resistance should be approximately 4.7 kOhm, and after heating with hot water, it should decrease significantly.

If the thermostat is defective, it must be replaced. To dismantle, pull out and disconnect the hopper for powder, then remove the control panel, having previously disconnected the thermostat and controller handles from it.

Firstly, the machine is much easier to disassemble than many others, and secondly, it is often not required to completely remove the tank.

Only the front part of the tank is removed, after which it becomes possible to pull the drum out of the rear part, which remains in the machine.

The exceptions are cases when one of the bearings has completely collapsed and its parts have to be removed from the glass.

To gain access to the front of the tank, you must first remove the front panel of the machine and unscrew the lower counterweight. Now you need to disconnect all pipes and wires from the tank.

Before disconnecting the tank from the wires and pipes, photograph it with a camera with sufficient resolution, especially the wires. Peeping in the photo, you can avoid assembly errors.

The front of the tank is secured with 12 clips that must be removed. Then it can be detached and pulled out. It remains to unscrew the back wall of the case, remove the pulley from the drum axle shaft and pull out the drum itself. The bearings on the axle shaft are fitted with an interference fit, so it has to be knocked out with careful blows of a rubberized hammer.

Do not reuse the screw that held the pulley to the drum shaft.
