Checking the power supply

Reviewing error codes
Modern washers often display error codes that can provide valuable insights into the problem. We'll explain how to interpret these codes and take appropriate action to resolve the clicking issue.
Seeking professional assistance
If you have followed all the troubleshooting steps and the clicking problem persists, it may be necessary to contact a qualified technician. They can diagnose and repair any underlying issues that require specialized knowledge.
