Whirlpool Cabrio not Working. Cabrio Washer Repair

The Whirlpool Cabrio washing machines are 3 cosmetically various variations of the exact same appliance that was established by the New Zealand appliance business, Fisher & Paykel.
You need to keep in mind that in the more recent 2010 Whirlpool washing machine line-up, some washers branded as Cabrio do not have the exact same mechanical style, despite the fact that they can look practically similar. They are Belt Driven Cabrio Washer Designs. This guide is for the magnetically “stator drive” Cabrio washer designs.

A lot of energy conserving washers are front-loading and really mechanically made complex, nevertheless, this water conserving washing machine runs without a transmission, motor coupling, belt, clutch or break assembly. Rather, depending upon the washer design, the Cabrio washer uses a magnetic stator motor to run either the impeller (wash plate) or agitator for the wash part of the cycle then throughout the spin cycle, the washer’s motor spins the inner tub in between 800 and 1100 Transformations per minute (RPM) without using a transmission or clutch. It resembles a magnetic bullet train to tidy town.

Our very first encounter with the Cabrio washing machine style was at Whirlpool repair training in San Diego prior to the Cabrio washer was presented. We were right away impressed with the simpleness of the Cabrio style and the ease medical diagnosis and repair. Now that a couple of years have actually passed given that this washer’s intro, it has actually ended up being more evident that the control panel of this washing machine is relatively typical to have issues. The Cabrio washer’s primary sub seal is likewise typical to leakage, causing rusted and loud spin bearings. The client feed back worrying the Cabrio washer’s capability to tidy clothing is blended.

Due to the fact that of its big wash capability and basic mechanical style we do suggest the Cabrio washer design as a great energy conserving washer option to the far more bothersome front packing washing machine styles with a minimum of 2 control panel and more complex washer mechanics. Nevertheless, impeller design Cabrio washers are most likely best used in light responsibility cleansing circumstances. If you are a vehicle mechanic or farmer you might wish to purchase a Cabrio design with an agitator.

Tips & Tricks for the Whirlpool Cabrio Washing Machines:

Whirlpool Cabrio not Working.

1. Easy On The Bleach

Although your Cabrio washing machine might have a bleach dispenser that does not indicate you need to use it! Bleach and bleach vapors trigger washing machine rust and deterioration. If you desire your washer to last as long as possible use a plastic tub or something comparable to bleach clothes, then wash with cold water to prevent bleach vapors.

2. Messing up The works

Do not clean flooring carpets with rubber support in your elegant washing machine! The support will exfoliate and plug the recirculation pump and or drain pump triggering you sorrow and costing you cash!

3. Rolling in the Sheets

Fitted sheets can in some cases develop into a big heavy ball as they gather other products inside themselves throughout the wash cycle; this ball is almost difficult to stabilize at 1000 RPM. This holds true for all high effectiveness washers. Option … do not clean fitted sheets with heavy products like towels or blankets, and remain close while the washer is spinning so you can stop the cycle and adjust the load if essential. As a basic guideline towels must just be cleaned with other towels and heavy products that can be correctly stabilized. If you clean a lot of t-shirts with on huge towel the load will go off balance nearly each time.

4. Wash your Washer

Cool smelling clothing originating from an appliance developed to tidy clothing does not make much sense. Afresh washing machine cleansing tablets work quite well at cutting the washer gunk.

5. The Right Things

Use HE (High Effectiveness) soap. Yes it is more costly however you will likewise be using less soap so it’s a wash: )
Not using HE soap will trigger mistake codes, filthy clothing, bad tub bearings (really costly repair) and other washer issues.

6. Design Mimicry

Some lower end Whirlpool Cabrio washing makers initially launched in 2010 do not have the exact same mechanical style as the stator Cabrio washing makers I went over in this guide, despite the fact that cosmetically they look practically similar. These “Cabrio belt drive designs” have numerous typical issues however a lot of are simple to repair if you can repair the reason for the washer issue. Practically all Cabrio leading load washers in between 300.00 and 700.00 will have this belt driven mechanical design … I dislike misleading marketing practices! (purchase the more affordable one!).

7. Dam It!

One typical issue is connected to “flood stop” supply of water hoses closing internally, obstructing water from reaching the Cabrio washer’s valve. To fix this issue, shut off the supply of water valves, detach the hose pipes from the washing machine and valves to reset the internal diaphragms.

Care! Diagnostic modes are preformed with the washing machine plugged in and will likewise bypass a few of the washing makers basic security functions. Severe care ought to be used to prevent electrical shock in addition to injury or death due to moving parts!

Keep in mind: The washer needs to carry out as explained in these tests. Nevertheless, the details included in your washer’s wire diagram and technical sheet might be a little various. Constantly confirm your washing machine’s wire diagram and technical sheet prior to drawing a conclusion. If you get a various outcome you might wish to take a look at the part descriptions on this page for more ideas and tests.

3. If the diagnostic test mode has actually been effectively gone into, all of the sign lights will radiance for 5 seconds with 88 on the time screen. (If it didn’t work attempt # 2 once again One one thousand … 2 one thousand … 3 one thousand).

4. If there are any conserved fault codes they will be shown. If there are no save fault codes all sign lights will shut off for a minute then back on with 88 showed and the automated diagnostic test mode will start in 5 seconds.

5. If you are not able to go into the diagnostic test mode, press the power button and confirm that the button you were attempting to use runs correctly to configure the washer’s cycle function. There might be something incorrect with that function button. Discover another button on the control that appears to work and attempt to go into the diagnostic mode with that button. You might likewise wish to confirm that the interface has an excellent connection to the washing machine control panel at the P11 terminal.
