Fisher & Paykel WA42T26GW1 Washer Repair
The WA42T26GW1 is a revision of the 4.2 cubic foot EcoSmart top-loader. It was marketed in both countries with an ENERGY STAR rating and is no longer made. A washer this size carries large loads, so you hear a worn suspension before you see a worn anything else.
Cold washes are a frequent call. The machine has no water heater, so the cause is the hot supply, the valve or the temperature sensing, and we test all three. We also free the drain pump, check the rotor sensor when agitation sounds rough, and examine the suspension rods when the cabinet shakes.
Written pricing comes first, and our workmanship warranty runs 30 days. We also read the hose connections for the right hot and cold feed.
The washer takes hot water from your supply. We check the hot hose, the inlet valve and the temperature sensing. The cause turns out to be the valve screen or the sensor, not the machine's controls, and we confirm which with a test.
Softener goes in through the agitator cap. If it drips out early, we check the cap, its seal and seating. Wash the cap in warm water now and then to keep the opening clear of softener buildup.
Worn suspension, an uneven floor, or an unbalanced load. We level the washer, test the suspension rods and replace them if they are weak. Heavy comforters make the problem worse, so tell us which loads shake the most.
Book in about a minute, or call the desk. Same-day windows inside the Loop on most days, next-day across the rest of Houston.
