I got my first Apple in 1979. Wrote stock market analyze programs. Went Apple professional in 1984. Opened local Apple type repair store in '93. Authorized Apple VAR 1996. Authorized UMAX (Apple Clones) service provider. Ran my own Apple type store for ten years till heart problems. Now that the surgeons have rebuilt my plumbing I'm back at it full time. I've enjoyed the new customers from iFixit sending in their machines on the tough problems. I fancy myself as the "Dr. House of Macs". I want the hard problems, ones that interest me. The work is a constant challenge and I learn new things everyday. Researching questions keeps me up to date and has improved my diagnostic skills tremendously.

A répondu à : Why does washer not spin water out very well il y a 22 heuresfévrier 20, 2019
Cause 1 Drain Pump Sometimes, small objects or articles of clothing can get caught in the drain pump. To determine if anything is blocking the drain pump, remove the drain pump and check the pump for obstructions. If the drain pump is clear of obstructions, but is still noisy during the drain cycle, replace the drain pump. Cause 2 Clogged Pump or Hose Sometimes, socks and other small articles of clothing can get into the drain system and clog the pump hose or the pump itself. Remove the hoses from the pump and check for any obstructions. Cause 3 Lid Switch Assembly The lid switch assembly prevents the washer from spinning when the lid is open. If the lid switch assembly fails, the washer will not drain. To determine if the lid switch assembly is defective, use a multimeter to test each of the lid switches for continuity. If a lid switch does not have continuity, replace it.
A répondu à : Why is washing cycle takes 67 minutes? il y a 2 joursfévrier 20, 2019
Cause 1 Water Inlet Valve The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the washing machine. If the water inlet valve is defective, the wash may fill slowly or not fill at all. The water inlet valve requires sufficient water pressure to function properly. First, check the water pressure to determine that it is adequate. If the water pressure is adequate, try cleaning the screens inside the water inlet valve hose connection ports. If the washer still fills slowly, replace the water inlet valve. Cause 2 Low Water Pressure from Central Supply The home water pressure might be too low. The water inlet valve requires at least 20 psi to function properly. Check the water pressure to the valve to determine if it is sufficient.
