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:

  • water drain pump;
  • 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 interference 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.

  1. 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.

  1. Vibration of the washing machine.

Image - DIY repair of washing machines eyelid

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.
