Calentador de agua Solución de problemas

RUMBUNG NOISE
In some water areas, scale or mineral deposits will build up on your heating elements. This buildup will cause a rumbling noise.

SMELLY WATER
In each glass-lined water heater there is installed one anode rod for corrosion protection of the tank. Certain water conditions will cause a reaction between this rod and the water. The most common complaint associated with the anode rod is one of a "rotten egg smell." This odor is derived from hydrogen sulfide gas dissolved in the water. The smell is the result of four factors which must all be present for the odor to develop:
A. A concentration of sulfate in the supply water.
B. Little or no dissolved oxygen in the water.
C. A sulfate reducing bacteria within the water heater. (This harmless bacteria is nontoxic to humans.)

HIGH TEMPERATURE SHUT OFF SYSTEM
The water heater has a high limit shut off system with a reset button located on the thermostat.

HYDROGEN GAS
Hydrogen gas can be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for a long period of time (generally two weeks or more). Hydrogen gas is extremely flammable and explosive. To prevent the possibility of injury under these conditions, we recommend the hot water faucet be opened for several minutes at the kitchen sink before any electrical appliances which are connected to the hot water system are used (such as a dishwasher or washing machine). If hydrogen gas is present, there will probably be an unusual sound similar to air escaping through the pipe as the hot water faucet is opened. There must be no smoking or open flame near the faucet at the time it is open.

NOT ENOUGH OR NO HOT WATER
In a new installation, the water heater may not be properly connected. Make sure the cold water supply valve is open. Review and check piping installation. Make sure that the cold water line is connected to the cold water inlet to the water heater and the hot water line to the hot water outlet on the water heater.

Distancia Solución de problemas

Entire Range Won�€�t Operate
If none of your range�€�s functions will operate, ensure that its power cord is firmly plugged into the outlet. There may be an issue with the power supply to the appliance, so examine your home�€�s fuse box or circuit breaker. Replace any blown fuses or reset the circuit breaker if necessary. If there is adequate power to your range but it still won�€�t turn on, its service wiring may be incomplete. Contact Kenmore at the number listed in your owner�€�s manual for assistance. If you are trying to use the oven portion of your range and it won�€�t operate, make sure that the time is set on the display clock. The oven won�€�t turn on if the clock hasn�€�t been set.

Cooktop Element Doesn�€�t Heat
If the elements on your smooth cooktop won�€�t heat or aren�€�t heating evenly, check that you�€�ve turned the correct control knob for the element you want to use. The elements may seem not to heat or may seem to heat unevenly if improper cookware is used. Avoid lightweight or warped pans that don�€�t distribute heat evenly. Opt for flat, even, medium- or heavy-weight pots and pans, which heat more evenly, so food isn�€�t likely to burn.

Abrasions on Cooktop Surface
If you notice marks on the smooth cooktop surface of your range, they may be abrasions or scratches from rough food particles that get trapped between the surface and your cookware. These marks don�€�t affect cooking results and usually fade over time, but you can avoid them by wiping down the cooktop, and your pots and pans, before cooking. Abrasions may also appear on your cooktop�€�s surface if you don�€�t use the proper cleaning products to clean it. Choose a cleanser designed specifically for ceramic-glass cooktops and buff it with a nonabrasive sponge or cloth. If your cooktop has discoloration, it may be caused by food that has boiled over and been cooked onto the ceramic glass during cooking. A razor blade scraper can remove the debris. Mineral deposits from food and water can also discolor your cooktop surface. Use an appropriate cleaning product to remove them.

Range Isn't Level
If your range doesn�€�t appear level, examine the floor beneath it to ensure that it is level and stable enough to support the appliance. Contact a carpenter or contractor to strengthen the floor if you notice it is sloping or sagging. Your range may not be level if it was poorly installed, too. Set a rack in the center of the oven and place a level on it. Adjust the leveling legs at the bottom of the range until the level indicates the problem has been corrected. Keep in mind that the alignment of your kitchen cabinets can make the range appear like it�€�s not level. Cabinets should be square and allow clearance for the range.

Lavadora Solución de problemas

Bad lid switch
If your washing machine does not stop every time you open the lid, your lid switch is bad. You may have to replace the lid switch.

Clogged waste hose
If your washing machine does not drain the waste water, the waste hose might be clogged. If the waste hose is only clogged, repair is as easy as removing and unclogging the waste hose.

Bad drain pump
If the waste hose has no clogs, the problem may be a bad drain pump. The drain pump could have a clog in it, too. Since the drain pump has a translucent cover, the clog should be visible.
If removing the clog in the drain pump has no effect, there may be a problem with it.

Bad pump motor
If waste hose installation guide and the drain pump installation guide did not solve the problem, it may be the motor. Since the motor provides the drain pump with the power to drain, the motor will have to be replaced.

Broken drive belt
If your drive belt is broken, the motor cannot turn the tub.

Bad tub motor
If your motor is not working, you will have to replace it. Make sure the washing machine is unplugged from the electrical outlet.

Lavaplatos Solución de problemas

DISHWASHER DOES NOT RUN
It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle.
If the Start!Resume or Smart Display status bar light is blinking, push START/RESUME and close the door within 3 seconds.
Be sure the door is closed and latched.
Be sure you have selected a cycle.
Be sure there is power to the dishwasher. A circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped.
If lights other than Start/Resume blink and the unit will not run, you will need to call for service.

CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG
To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run for up to 3 hours.
A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best, the dishwasher will delay longer while heating cooler water.
Some options will add time to the cycle.
Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.

DISHWASHER NOT DRYING
Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difficult to dry because they have a DRYING porous surface which tends to collect water droplets.
Towel drying may be necessary.
Use of rinse aid along with the Heated Dry option is needed for proper drying.
Proper loading of items can affect drying.
Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items when unloading.
Unload the bottom rack first.
Load these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.

WILL NOT FILL
Be sure the water is turned on to the dishwasher.
Check that the float is free from obstructions.
Check for suds in the dishwasher.
If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not operate properly or may not fill with water.

ODORS
If the dishwasher is not used daily, you can run a Quick Rinse cycle with the partial load daily until a full load is ready to run, or use the Top Rack Only option (on some models) for partial loads.
Run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher by putting 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in an upright glass measuring cup in the lower rack. Run a normal cycle with the Heated Dry option turned off. Do not use detergent.

LEAKING WATER
Be sure the dishwasher has been installed properly and is level.
Suds can cause the dishwasher to overflow. Measure the detergent accurately and use only detergents designed for use in a dishwasher.
Less detergent is needed in soft water. Try another brand of detergent if sudsing continues.
To avoid rinse aid leaking from the dispenser, be sure the lid is securely attached and avoid overfilling.

Frequent Causes for a Kenmore Microwave to Not Work
Before you investigate why your Kenmore microwave isn't working, you should make sure that the plug is plugged in correctly and that the outlet is working. If the plug and outlet are operating efficiently, then that most likely means that the fuse has blown. If you are using your microwave a ton and there's a bunch of currents passing through the microwave, the line fuse can blow because of all of these currents. If the line fuse is blown, that's why your microwave isn't working. It is recommended that you have a licensed technician check and replace your blown fuse. In a Kenmore microwave, there are thousands of volts of electricity running through it, even when the microwave is off. There's potential for an electric shock if you don't know what you're doing when it comes to replacing electronic components in the microwave. The technician will know where the Kenmore Elite microwave fuse location is when fixing the appliance. That's why it is best just to have a licensed electrician do the job for you.

Main Control Board: Kenmore Microwave No Power
Sometimes the main control board of the Kenmore microwave can be defective, but this is a highly unlikely reason if your microwave isn't working. Most Kenmore microwaves are tested before they leave the factory, so there shouldn't be any defective parts. If everything is working in your microwave, though, it could be the control board. You should have a licensed technician handle the Kenmore microwave repair because you can be shocked if you don't know what you're doing. Licensed technicians will be able to replace the main control board of your Kenmore microwave with no issue whatsoever.

Thermal Fuse
Another reason why your Kenmore microwave might not be working is that the thermal fuse has cut off. This happens when your microwave overheats and then the thermal fuse blows. Thermal fuses can't be reset if they're blown, so you have to replace them. This is something that a licensed technician can fix quickly. If your fuse is always blowing, it's best just to get a new microwave.

Refrigerador Solución de problemas

Refrigerator or Freezer Not Cool Enough
When the refrigerator and freezer are not cooling, first check if the machine is plugged in and powered on. Then, check the temperature controls to see if they are set properly. Next, verify the machine has not been set on demo mode, which stores use to keep the lights and display on without wasting electricity on cooling. To turn off demo mode, check the manual for your specific model. Also, ensure the device is not being used somewhere too warm as these refrigerators cannot work properly in temperatures above 110 degrees Fahrenheit.
If these solutions don't work, consider whether the machine has had enough time to cool off. If the refrigerator was recently plugged in, if the doors were left open for an excessive period of time, if the temperature controls were recently changed, if the defrost cycle just ran or if a large quantity of food was recently added, the device might just need time to cool off again. It can take up to 24 hours for a refrigerator to cool completely from room temperature and up to half an hour to cool completely after a defrost cycle.
When the refrigerator is warm and the freezer is cold, check that the vents running from the freezer to the refrigerator are not blocked. You may also want to check that the refrigerator is not too full as this blocks the air from circulating properly.
If you find that none of these solutions correct your temperature problem, you may need to contact a professional as there may be an internal problem with the refrigerator.

Moisture Inside or Under the Refrigerator
A small amount of moisture is normal in a refrigerator. If your refrigerator, particularly the defrost drain pan, is excessively wet, it could be that the doors have been left open, that the room it has been stored in is too humid or that the defrost cycle recently completed. In these cases, wipe up the moisture with a towel and ensure the doors are fully closed.
If the defrost pan overflows, possibly resulting in water collecting under the crisper drawer or under the exterior of the refrigerator, it could be blocked by debris or ice. If the drain looks frozen over, you can try to defrost the drain with a hair dryer or by pouring a small amount of warm water in it. If this does not solve the problem, the tube or defrost pan may need to be replaced by a professional.
If the water is dripping from the back of the refrigerator or under the crisper drawer but the defrost drain pan is not blocked up, a leaking inlet valve or water system tubing could be the reason. These will also need to be replaced by a professional.

Icemaker or Water Dispenser Problems
If your icemaker is not producing enough ice, you could need more ice than your machine is able to produce, which is approximately 100 cubes in a day. Your freezer may also be too warm to produce ice properly, usually because the door has not been closed completely, the machine was only plugged in recently or the freezer temperature is set too low. Alternatively, the water hose may not be connected in the back properly, the hose may be kinked or you may not have enough water pressure in your home. To solve these problems, you can check the hose connection and ensure there are no kinks, but you may need to hire a plumber to increase your water pressure.
On the other hand, if the machine is not making ice at all, it could be due to the reasons above or because the icemaker is not turned on, the ice-detecting sensor is obstructed or the icemaker shutoff arm is obstructed. If fixing these problems doesn't correct the issue, your icemaker could be broken and may require a professional repair.
When the refrigerator is not dispensing any ice, it could be because the doors are not closed properly, the dispenser chute is blocked, the dispenser display panel is locked or because there is no ice in the machine. If none of these problems caused the issue, you may need a professional to come and repair the dispenser motor.

Secadora Solución de problemas

Clothes are not drying satisfactorily, drying times are too long
Lint screen clogged with lint. Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.
The Air Only cycle has been selected. Select the right cycle for the types of garments being dried.
Load too large and heavy to dry quickly. Separate the load to tumble freely
Fabric softener sheets blocking the grill. Use only one fabric softener sheet, and use it only once.
Exhaust vent not the correct length. Check that the exhaust vent is not too long or has too many turns. Long venting will increase drying times. Make sure vent is not crushed or kinked.

Dryer will not run
Door not closed completely. Make sure the dryer door is closed completely.
PUSH to START button not pressed firmly or held long enough. Press and hold the PUSH to START button until you hear the dryer drum moving.
Incorrect power supply. Electric dryers require 240-volt power supply. Check with a qualified electrician.
Wrong type of fuse. Use a time-delay fuse.

Unusual sounds
Dryer had a period of non-use. If the dryer hasn�€�t been used for awhile, there may be a thumping sound during the first few minutes of operation.
A coin, button, or paper clip is caught between the drum and front or rear of the dryer. Check the front and rear edges of the drum for small objects. Clean out pockets before laundering.
It is a gas dryer. The gas valve clicking is a normal operating sound.
The four legs are not installed, and the dryer is not level front to back and side to side. The dryer may vibrate if not properly installed.

Cycle time too short
Automatic cycle ending early.
The load may not be contacting the sensor strips. Level the dryer.
Use Timed Dry for very small loads. Change the dry level setting on Auto Dry cycles.
Increasing or decreasing the dry level setting will change the amount of drying time in a cycle.

Lint on load
Lint screen clogged. Lint screen should be cleaned before each load.

Stains on load or drum
Dryer fabric softener not properly used.
Add dryer fabric softener sheets at the beginning of the cycle.
Fabric softener sheets added to a partially dried load can stain your garments.
Drum stains are caused by dyes in clothing (usually blue jeans).
These will not transfer to other clothing.

Odors
You have recently been painting, staining, or varnishing in the area where your dryer is located.
If so, ventilate the area. When the odors or fumes are gone from the area, rewash and dry the clothing.
The electric dryer is being used for the first time.
The new electric heating element may have an odor. The odor will be gone after the first cycle.

Reseñas de productos:

El mismo problema que muchos con el calentador de agua Kenmore, de sólo 6

El mismo problema que muchos con el calentador de agua Kenmore, de sólo 6 años, con 9 años de garantía. La luz del piloto se apaga, luego tiene que volver a encender el piloto, calienta el agua, luego se apaga de nuevo. El técnico de servicio vendrá hoy, probablemente experimentará problemas similares a los de otros mensajes. Esperemos que tenga una pieza y no nos deje colocados junto a la unidad para volver a encenderla 3 veces al día, más o menos. Las marcas de fábrica no significan mucho hoy en día. Por eso muchas empresas sólidas y fiables del pasado tienden a desaparecer.
