A Maytag washer in Canton, OH was displaying a SUD error and would not drain. Our technician found the drain pump had failed and needed replacement.
The Problem
The customer reported their Maytag washer was showing a SUD error and would not drain. This prevented the wash cycle from completing properly.
Diagnosis
Upon inspection, we determined the drain pump had failed. When a drain pump stops working, the washer cannot remove water from the tub, triggering error codes and stopping the cycle.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: New drain pump
- Work performed: Installed new drain pump
- Result: All is working, no leaks
Is It Worth Repairing?
Maytag washers are generally reliable appliances that respond well to repair. A drain pump replacement on this model is typically cost-effective compared to replacement, especially if the rest of the machine is in good condition.
Maintenance Tips for Maytag Washers
- Clean the drain pump filter monthly to prevent clogs that can damage the pump
- Use the correct amount of HE detergent to avoid excessive suds that strain the drain system
- Check pockets for coins and small items that can jam the drain pump impeller
