    • J
      johnsondonaldSep 1, 2025
      If there is water leakage around the loading door of your Dexter Laundry Washer, the door may need adjustment due to abuse or wear. Check the tightness around the perimeter using a dollar bill. Adjust left to right tightness by shims at the door lock or hinge side. It is important to center the gasket to the tub opening before tightening the door to hinge bolts. Chalk may be used on the tub front to show the point of contact with the tub. If the gasket is deformed, worn, or damaged, replace it.

    Why is my Dexter Laundry T-950 Washer vibrating excessively?
    • B
      Brandon MillsSep 2, 2025
      Excessive vibration in your Dexter Laundry Washer can stem from several causes. First, check the strength of the mounting structure and ensure mounting bolts are tightened. A worn drive belt can also cause vibration and noise, so inspect its condition. Also, small loads can contribute to out-of-balance loading, increasing vibration.

    What to do if the door of my Dexter Laundry T-950 Washer does not lock?
    • K
      Karen MooreSep 3, 2025
      If the door of your Dexter Laundry Washer isn't locking, first check the display for any error messages and follow the tests described in the fault code section. Then, verify that the door locking mechanism is receiving 120VAC (for 60 Hz models) or 24VAC (for 50 Hz models) from the main relay PCB; if it's receiving power but not functioning, replace the mechanism. Also, check the door switch for continuity through the door latch.

    How to open a Dexter Laundry Washer door that will not open?
    • D
      dchavezSep 3, 2025
      If the door of your Dexter Laundry Washer won't open, check if the thermoactuator and its mechanism are stuck or binding. Ensure the locking thermoactuator is not receiving 24VAC during the last 1 1/2 minutes of the cycle and that the unlocking thermoactuator is receiving 24VAC during the last minute. If the timing and voltage are correct, replace the thermoactuator. Also, verify that the door rod from the mechanism to the lock assembly is long enough to allow the lock assembly to disengage; adjust the rod or the position of the mechanism if needed. Check that the door lock mechanism is not stuck closed; if it is, replace it.

    Why is there no cold water entering the tub in my Dexter Laundry T-950 Washer during wash?
    • F
      fortizSep 5, 2025
      If no cold water is entering the tub of your Dexter Laundry Washer during the wash cycle, start by checking the water valve coil for continuity at the terminals and replace it if necessary. Inspect the water inlet screens for any blockage and clean them if needed. Ensure that the water supply is turned on and functioning correctly. If the appropriate voltage is not present at the valve, refer to the wiring diagram for your specific washer model. Check for voltage at the P4 Connector on the Relay PCB and for LED indication that the appropriate relay is activated. Check the pressure switch continuity between terminal contacts; if there's no continuity, check the pressure switch hose for obstructions, and if the hose is clear, replace the pressure switch.

    Why is there no hot water in the detergent dispenser of my Dexter Laundry T-950?
    • R
      Rachel RoseSep 5, 2025
      If there's no hot water in the detergent dispenser of your Dexter Laundry Washer, check the water valve coil continuity at the terminals and replace it if there is no continuity. Remember, there is 120 VAC power (60Hz) only on for 20 seconds in the wash bath (24 VAC for 50 Hz models). Inspect the water inlet screens for blockage and clean them if necessary. Ensure that the water supply is turned on and operating. Also, check the wire harness to the valve.

      Lisa BrownSep 6, 2025
      If water isn't flushing the softener compartment in your Dexter Laundry Washer, check the water valve coil for continuity at the terminals and replace it if there's no continuity. Inspect the water inlet screens for blockage and clean them if necessary. Ensure that the water supply is turned on and operating. Also, check the pressure switch continuity between terminals; if there's no continuity, check the pressure switch hose for obstruction, and if the hose is okay, change the pressure switch.

    • M
      Michael CareySep 6, 2025
      If your Dexter Laundry Washer doesn't stop, the main PCB, which controls the time cycle at the end of the cycle, may be the issue. You should also check the braking resistors for continuity and verify their ohms resistance.
