Reason #1: Drain pump: The drain pump is used to remove the water from the tub during the spin cycles. If your washer doesn't drain properly it could be that the water pump is clogged or has failed and it may be necessary to replace it.

Reason #2: Hoses: They carry the water to the different parts of the washer. If it’s not draining or hitting an appropriate water level, it’s possible that one of the washer hoses has become clogged. Follow the video for full troubleshooting tips and instructions on how to remove and inspect the different hoses within the washing machine.

Reason #3: Lid Switch Assembly: The lid switch assembly is a safety device that communicates to the washer if the lid is closed. If the switch fails it won’t let the washer go into the drain or spin cycles.

Reason #4: Main Control Board: The main control board is responsible for the function of the washer after you make your selection. If your washer isn’t draining, it could be that the board has failed. Follow troubleshooting steps in the video to determine whether the main control board has simply malfunctioned or if it needs to be replaced.

Reason #5: Washing Machine Timer: The timer controls the functions of the washer. If your washer won’t drain, it’s possible that the contacts to the timer have failed.

Reason #6: Pump Belt: The pump belt goes in between the motor and the drain pump. If the belt has worn or fallen off, the washer will not drain correctly and the pump belt will need to be replaced.
