Washer Symptom

Possible Cause/Solution

Won't Spin

• Make sure lid is closed.
• Pull timer knob out to start washer.
• Make sure power cord is plugged all the way into the electrical

outlet.

• Check the laundry room fuse or circuit breaker.
• The motor overload protector may have stopped the cycle. It

will reset itself in two or three minutes and restart the washer
automatically.

• Broken drive belt. Call the service person.

Stops/Pauses During Cycle

• Pauses are part of the washer’s normal operation. The washer

will stop (pause) shortly before the wash and rinse spins.

• Check the laundry room fuse or circuit breaker.
• The motor overload protector may have stopped the cycle. It

will reset itself in two or three minutes and restart the washer
automatically.

Won't Drain

• Make sure drain hose is not kinked or twisted.
• Make sure drain hose is not clogged.
• Make sure drain receptacle is not clogged.
• Refer to the Installation instructions to make sure that the

drain hose has been properly installed.

Water Leaks

• Check that fill hoses are properly installed on the faucets and

the washer’s water mixing valve.

• Check the condition of the fill hoses. Replace fill hoses every five

years.

• Make sure drain receptacle is not clogged.
• Check laundry room plumbing.
• Check house water pressure. In cases of extremely low water

pressure, leaking may occur.

• Laundry load may be oversudsing or overloaded. Use less deter-

gent (or low-sudsing detergent) and proper load sizes.

Is Noisy

• Wash load may be unbalanced. Open lid and redistribute the

load.

• Make sure washer is level. Uneven leveling can cause vibration.
• A newly installed washer may make a knocking sound if the ma-

chine has been in storage. The belt may have settled. Run wash-
er through 4-5 cycles to loosen belt. Washer operation will not
be affected.

Load Is Too Wet

• Wash load may be unbalanced. Open lid and redistribute the

load.

• Load is too small. Add items to make full load.
