Most common issues on this model
- Drum slow to spin up
- Drain slow or blocked
- Door switch not registering
- Noisy bearings
The W640 is an older ASKO washer and the plain version of the W640B. Both are out of production and uncommon, but owners who still have one tend to want to keep it.
We take a methodical approach on a washer this age: drain first, door second, spin third. A drum that is slow to reach spin speed is a different problem from one that will not spin at all. The first points to drive wear or an imbalance, and the second to a failed drive or a drain problem holding it back. We test which it is before recommending a part.
We read the label to tell the W640 from the W640B, check parts and give a written price before we repair. If parts cannot be found, we say so.

What is the difference between the W640 and the W640B?
The B marks a version of the W640. We read the label to see which one you have, then match every part to that number.
Why does my washer drain slowly?
The filter or the pump may be blocked or worn. We clear and test them first, since that is the cheapest fix and often the right one.
Are noisy bearings repairable?
Yes, but the cost can be high on an older washer. We tell you the price in writing before you commit to the work, and we say if it is too much.
