对话10
Hi, thanks for coming. So, the washing machine isn't draining at all. It just fills up and then stops.
你好，谢谢你过来。洗衣机完全不排水。它就那样注满水然后停住了。
No problem at all. Let me have a look. Is it making any unusual noises when it tries to drain?
没问题。我来看看。它尝试排水的时候有没有发出什么异常的声音？
Not really. It's just silent, like it's not even trying. We've checked the lint filter, and that's clear.
不太有。它就是一片寂静，好像根本没有尝试。我们检查过线屑过滤器了，是干净的。
Okay. I'll need to check the pump and the drain hose. It sounds like there might be a blockage further down or the pump itself is faulty.
好的。我需要检查一下水泵和排水管。听起来可能是更深处有堵塞，或者是水泵本身有问题。
Alright, I've had a look. It appears the drain pump is indeed faulty. It's not getting any power, which is why it's silent. There's also some minor blockage in the main drain hose, likely from detergent residue.
好了，我检查过了。看来排水泵确实坏了。它没有通电，所以才没声音。主排水管里也有一些轻微的堵塞，很可能是洗涤剂残留物造成的。
Oh, I see. So, what's the solution then? How much will it cost to fix it?
哦，我明白了。那有什么解决方案呢？修理它要多少钱？
We'll need to replace the drain pump and thoroughly clear the drain hose. For parts and labor, the total will be $180. That includes a 90-day warranty on the new pump.
我们需要更换排水泵并彻底清理排水管。零件和人工费加起来总共是180美元。这包括新泵的90天保修期。
Okay, $180. That sounds reasonable. Can you do it now?
好的，180美元。听起来挺合理的。你现在能修吗？
Yes, I have the replacement pump with me. I can get it done right away. It should take about an hour to an hour and a half.
是的，我带着替换泵。我现在就能修。大概需要一个到一个半小时。
Great! Please go ahead. Thanks a lot.
