My Haier frontloaders help

[bpetersxx]

I have a problem with both my Haier frontloaders

 

My xqg50-11 washer dryer has 2 problems :

 

The dryer will not heat because the protective fuse keeps blowing

 

I got a new fuse and thermostat to replace the blown out ones but I am wondering if I should replace the heater as well

 

I do not know why it is blowing fuses like it is

 

the repair instructions say to replace the fuse and the thermostat because when the fuse goes out the thermostat is fried as well

 

Also the inner tub is loose I can take a hold if it and it will rock a little bit

 

I am worried the bearings are going out on it or the spider is broken

 

it does not make too much noise when it operates

 

I wanted to talk the yoke off the back that has the bearings in it but I cannot get the drive pulley off the screw that holds it on will not come off all I did is try to chew out the slot on it

 

my xqg50-qf802 has an electrical problem:

 

the door lock makes a pop occasionally will make a pop sound and smoke comes out of it

 

It works fine otherwise

 

Can messing with the pressure switch do that as I have been experimenting with adjusting it to lower the water level I wash small loads in it and it will not balance

 

I would like to get them working as I cannot find any frontloaders that have a regular timer system on them just electronic ones

#1 will have to do some ohm checks to find the short/ground
#2 how much movement?-just a little(barely perceptable) is normal play in the bearings-with no rumble bearings probably ok.
#3 sure sounds like wax motor heat pellet flashover(well known early nepune problem BTW)a new one will likely be needed soon-you might be able to repair the original if it isn't damaged too bad.
Some of the older haier front loads used an "old skool" induction motor-one cool feature those have.

1 I'll try to multitester on the wiring
2 Just a little movement in the tub no noise in any case
3 May replace the lock and keep the old on attached if I can to the cabinet

Now if I can fugure out if the bleach is dispensing at the right time in the WD combo unit

Thw washer I named the POS machine I was adding it top the tub at the first rinse to make sure the bleach was rinsed out by the fourth rinse

thanks for the info everybody

I'll use them the way they are right now if they break down I'll probably scrap them since it is going to be hard to get parts for them in the future

update

the XQG50-11 developed a new quirk

The dry portion of the washer dryer will not terminate at times I have to wiggle the wash dial

Also it will not tumble at time either dial wiggling as well for it

So I will have to osrt out the no heat and the timer issues at a later time

sorry no pics right at this time only youtube videos
