If your Kenmore Washer won't run or fill, or if the wash light remains on, start by checking the water supply. Ensure both hoses are attached and have water flowing to the inlet valve, and that both hot and cold water faucets are turned on. Also, inspect the inlet valve screens for clogs and check the inlet hoses for any kinks that might be restricting water flow.
What to do if my Kenmore 2135 Washer is leaking water?
If your Kenmore Washer is leaking water, several issues could be the cause. First, ensure the washer is level and the load isn't unbalanced or tightly packed. Check that the fill hoses are tightly connected and that all four fill hose flat washers are properly seated. Also, verify the drain hose connection is secure and not taped over. Finally, inspect your household plumbing for leaks or clogs.
Why does my Kenmore 2135 Washer make clicking noises?
Clicking or metallic noises in your Kenmore Washer can be due to objects caught in the drain system. Always empty pockets before washing to prevent loose items like coins from falling between the basket and tub or blocking the pump. It's also normal to hear metal items on clothing, such as snaps or zippers, touch against the basket.
How to increase water level in my Kenmore 2135 Washer?
It is normal for some of the load to be above the water line. The Kenmore Washer senses load sizes and adds the correct amount of water for optimal cleaning.
Why is my Kenmore Washer vibrating so much?
Several factors can cause your Kenmore Washer to vibrate or become off-balance. Ensure the front and rear feet are firmly on the floor, and the washer is level. Tighten the jam nuts against the cabinet's bottom. Check the floor for flexing or sagging; a 3/4" plywood piece can help. Also, distribute dry items evenly around the basket wall, avoiding tightly packed loads or single items. For bulky items like jackets, use the Bulky cycle.
Why is my Kenmore Washer gurgling and humming?
If you notice gurgling or humming sounds from your Kenmore Washer, it's likely due to the washer draining water. During the Drain/Spin cycles, the pump makes a continuous humming sound with periodic gurgling or surging as the final amounts of water are removed, which is normal.
Why is my Kenmore 2135 Washer humming?
If you hear a humming sound from your Kenmore Washer, especially when the sensing light is on, it's a normal part of the sensing process. The washer performs sensing spins before adding water, which can take several minutes.
