SOURCE: oil leak in washing machine

Sounds like the transmission is leaking. These transmission don't need to be full of oil to function. But, if it's leaking a lot, like tablespoons, it should be checked. It's not the end of the line. Just may need a service call if it's a plentiful leak.

SOURCE: Problem : Water leaking out from under washing machine

NOTE. PLEASE UN-PLUG THE UNIT FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING THE FOLLOWING JUST TO BE SAFE:-

Problem may be due to a blocked dispenser hole. Completely remove the dispenser unit and check for blockages in the hole where the water goes in. If you cant see anything immediate, take the top off. (Remove the 2 self tapping screws on the back holding the top on). Looking at the unit from the front. look inside where you took the top off and locate the rubber hose that connects the dispenser unit to the drum (it's a tight space, but if you look inside , front left you will see where the hose connects to the drum). Remove the hose and check for blockages. (The hose just pushes into the drum). Let me know. I had a similar problem and found that somebody had shoved a sock and pair of knickers down the water dispenser hole. This was also causing the machine to make a loud noise when spinning. Have you also checked the filter in the bottom right hand corner of the unit ? You have to remove the kick panel to get access to it.

I've got a Simpson washing machine but when I filled it up with water there's water coming out from the bottom of the machine and the power just turn it self off

Check the water pump. If the pump shaft seals have worn out, it will leak water. I recently replaced a pump for a client with a similar problem but it wasn't shutting down from a short circuit caused by water. The pumps for Simpson machines are still in production and are quite easy to replace (find an appliance reconditioning shop and get a good used unit - it will save you some money). Also check the pump hoses for splits/leaks. Second place to look is the main agitator shaft seals for the wash bowl. This is a more involved repair and will require disassembly of the wash bowl/agitator to access it. There will also be a bearing on the shaft that should be replaced at the same time (washing powder is alkaline and will attack metal - once the seals protecting the bearings have failed, the bearing will rust out) Unfortunately the Simpson is a tough beast and isn't easy to tilt over to see where the water is coming from. You shouldn't need to turn the power on to find the leak. Just prop up one side of the machine with 2 blocks of wood etc and dump a few buckets of water into it and observe the underside with a torch (if it has been leaking substantially there should be tell-tale water stains in the vicinity of the leak)

Hi I have a simpson eziset 950 washing machine that leaks water internally .can this be fixed Thanks Joe

I am not familiar with the model but if the spare parts, if any are needed, are available all faults can be fixed.

There are two big questions - what has gone wrong and how much will it cost to fix and is it worth it.

Leaking water internally is a rather vague description. I assume you mean the washtub is filling when it isn't supposed to?

If it is clean fresh water it could be the solenoid fill-valve that is leaking or alternatively is receiving current when it shouldn't.

If the water is grey, dirty, soapy water it is probably a syphon-back situation that sometimes happens when the machine discharge is badly connected and the required air-break is blocked.

I have a simpson 9.5 kg washing machine an ezi you put powder in and it wont fill you turn the settings to fill and it wont work any ideas i was working fine then now it wont fill up

Power off the machine. Close your wall faucet which brings water into the machine. Unscrew the nut, hold a bag or bucket to collect water coming in from the wall, gently open the water control to see if water flows - the flow should be in good pressure. If it is good, close valve; now open the other end of the pipe going into your machine. You will see a fine filter connected to your machine; clean this out if clogged with an old toothbrush; clean out your pipe too. Refit carefully both nuts, without cross-threading; open the wall faucet to check for leaks. Things should be fine.

GE WWSE5200B Top Load Washer does not drain or spin

Jim, we have same problem with Simpson top loader washing machine.
Our repairer eventually diagnosed it as a problem with the electronics but it can't be fixed. So we have a 3 year old machine with good pump , motor, gearbox etc but need to buy new machine now. Yours might be similar problem. Don't buy a simpson. Sorry, this is just what we've been told.

My Simpson Ezi Sensor is washing clothes leaving grimy tracks and soap powder on the clothes. BeforeI seek any mechanical help, can I put the washing machine through a cleaning cycle of hot water to clean...

Hi from France,

Particularly if the water supply has a lot of calcium in it (hard water), it is necessary to 'clean' it out regularly.
This is done by buying anticalc powder sachets specificaly designed for washing machines (AND often the same stuff for dishwashers!).
If your machine is not new i.e. a few years old and has not hathe benifit of regular cleaning it will be well worthwhile spending some money on these sachets. What I have done with ours is to swith it off, put a couple of sachets into the drum and then pour in (from a kettle or similar) hot water to dissolve the powder. I have then left it overnight so that the heating element is well soaked and hopefully anti-calc'ed. Run a quick wash to flush it out. It will do no harm and hopefully improve its efficiency- IF the problem is due to poor heating and not something else.
I would start there.

Cheers,
John C
