Begin with the particular fault.
A wash interrupted is a whole routine interrupted. Note the programme stage and what remains in the drum.
A knock develops as the speed rises
Stop using the machine if it knocks heavily or moves as the spin builds. Describe when the sound begins and whether it repeats with drum movement. Do not steady a moving cabinet by hand or reach behind it. Include the model and any recent move so the arrangement can be assessed safely.
Another pattern to distinguish: the display is dark
Leave the machine switched off if a blank display follows sparks, a hot smell or electrical protection operating. Do not open controls or repeatedly restore a tripping supply. Tell us whether the panel is entirely dark or gives a brief response, and whether the loss of operation was sudden or intermittent.
Read the identity, not just the badge.
Quote the complete model and serial or service number from a safely visible label. Similar product names can hide different components. If the label is concealed, leave the appliance in place and tell us the model is unknown.
