Common Issues and Solutions for Splendide Washer-Dryers: From Pressure Switches to Fan Motors

If your Splendide washer-dryer isn’t functioning correctly, the problem might lie with one of the critical internal components, such as the pressure switch or fan motor. Here's how to troubleshoot and fix common issues with these parts.

Step 1: Power Off the Washer-Dryer

Unplug the washer-dryer before beginning any troubleshooting to avoid electrical hazards.

Step 2: Diagnosing Pressure Switch Issues

The pressure switch controls the water level in the drum. If your washer isn’t filling or is overfilling, the pressure switch may be faulty. To access it, remove the top panel, then locate the switch on the front corner of the machine.

Check for disconnected hoses or loose wiring. If necessary, replace the switch by disconnecting the hose and wires, then reinstalling a new one.

Step 3: Diagnosing Fan Motor Problems

If your dryer cycle isn’t working properly, it could be due to a malfunctioning fan motor. Access the motor by removing the top panel and locating the fan assembly on the right side. Ensure the motor isn’t obstructed by debris and that it spins freely.

If the motor is damaged, remove it by disconnecting the wires and screws, then replace it with a new fan motor.

Final Tips:

  • Check connections: Loose or faulty wiring can often be the cause of pressure switch or fan motor problems, so inspect all connections during troubleshooting.
  • Test components: If you suspect a part is malfunctioning, use a multimeter to check electrical continuity before deciding to replace it.

Following these steps can help you resolve many common problems with your Splendide washer-drye
