Problem

Washer Not Draining

Quick answer

Water left in a washer usually means a clogged drain pump filter, a sock or coin in the pump, a kinked drain hose or a failed drain pump. Front-load washers have an accessible pump filter at the bottom front; if clearing it doesn't help, the pump likely needs replacement.

Common causes

  • Pump filter clog
  • Foreign object in pump
  • Drain hose
  • Drain pump failure

Should you call a technician?
