This platform, in brief
What follows is the platform profile for this washer family and a map of its common faults. This family covers eleven listings. Read the table below against your rating plate before ordering anything; read the rest of the page regardless of which line you are on. The family key in the second column is what ties these listings together; the first column is what you will find on the plate. What these models have in common is where the platform puts its filter and how it supports its drum.
What goes wrong, and where to read about it
- No response when started — The drum will not turn until the door is locked, and the lock is the part that wears. — Slug: asko-asko-washer-w-washer-wont-start — Title: Asko W Washer: Will Not Start or No Power
- Rattling, rumbling or banging — Coins pass through the inner drum and cannot get back, which is where most rattles come from. — Slug: asko-asko-washer-w-washer-abnormal-noise — Title: Asko W Washer: Abnormal Noise or Vibration
- A cycle that will not finish — Where it stops, twice, tells you which subsystem is being waited on. — Slug: asko-asko-washer-w-washer-cycle-fault — Title: Asko W Washer: Cycle Will Not Run or Complete
- Water left in the drum — Water left in the drum, and the machine will not spin against it. — Slug: asko-asko-washer-w-washer-drainage-failure — Title: Asko W Washer: Will Not Drain
- Water around the machine — Time the leak against the cycle and the list halves immediately. — Slug: asko-asko-washer-w-washer-water-leak — Title: Asko W Washer: Water Leak
The frequency order for these models
- Drainage faults — The largest class. The pump filter at the front is the answer far more often than the pump behind it.
- Cycles that will not complete — A conservative control waiting on drainage, balance or temperature. It is repeatable, which makes it far easier than it sounds.
- Leaks and no-start faults — Seal, drawer and interlock — all at the front of the machine, all reachable, and all cheaper than they look.
- Body: Problem classes in frequency order on this platform.
