  If your Teka Washer isn't starting, there are several potential causes. First, ensure the washer is properly plugged into the socket. Check your fuse and replace it if defective. Verify that the mains supply is active. Make sure you've pressed the Start/Pause button and that the program knob is set to the desired position, not the stop (off) position. Finally, confirm that the washer door is completely closed.

Why is no water entering my Teka TK3 1490 WD?

  Carlos FitzgeraldAug 20, 2025
  If no water is entering your Teka Washer, start by checking if the tap is fully open. Inspect the water inlet hose to ensure it's not twisted, which can block the water flow. Also, the water inlet hose and valve inlet filters might be blocked, so clean them. Finally, ensure the door of your machine is properly closed.

  Ms. Patricia BlackwellAug 23, 2025
  If your Teka Washer is vibrating, it could be due to several reasons. First, make sure the machine's feet are properly adjusted for stability. Ensure that the transportation safety screws have been removed from the machine. Avoid installing your machine on hard surfaces, and when settling your machine, leave 2 cm space between it and walls or hard surfaces. Also, avoid overloading the machine or distributing the laundry unevenly.

How to reduce excessive foam in my Teka TK3 1490 WD detergent drawer?
- R
  rebecca99Aug 30, 2025
  If excessive foam is forming in the detergent drawer of your Teka Washer, it's likely due to using too much or the wrong type of detergent. To eliminate foam formation, mix a spoon of softener with half a litre of water, and pour the mixture in the detergent drawer. After 5-10 minutes, press the Start/Pause button again. Ensure you are using detergents specifically produced for automatic washing machines. Adjust the detergent dose accordingly in your next wash.

Why does my laundry have detergent residues after washing in my Teka TK3 1490 WD?
- T
  tony74Sep 2, 2025
  If your laundry has detergent residues after washing in your Teka Washer, it may be due to non-dissolving particles in the detergent adhering to clothes as white spots. Perform an extra rinsing cycle or brush off the spots after drying. The spots may also be caused by oil, cream, or ointment; in this case, use the maximum amount of detergent recommended by the manufacturer in the next wash.

Why does water discharge from my Teka TK3 1490 WD as soon as it's loaded?
- B
  Brian MurphySep 4, 2025
  If water discharges from your Teka Washer as soon as it's loaded, the end of the water drain hose may be too low. Ensure the water drain hose is set to an appropriate height.

Why is the spinning operation not working on my Teka Washer?
- C
  Cameron HartmanSep 6, 2025
  If the spinning operation is not performed or runs late on your Teka Washer, it may not be a fault. The unbalanced load control system may have been activated. This system will try to spread your laundry evenly, and the spinning operation will begin after your laundry is spread. Next time, place the laundry in the machine in a balanced fashion.

  If laundry remains damp after the drying operation in your Teka Washer, the appropriate drying programme may not have been selected, or the maximum load capacity for the selected programme might have been exceeded. Select a drying programme appropriate for your laundry.
