A Speed Queen washer at a home on Rochester Road in Minerva was leaking while washing with water running on the floor. Our diagnosis revealed a failed drain pump that needed complete replacement.
The Problem
The customer reported their Speed Queen washer was leaking while washing with water running on the floor. This type of leak during the wash cycle typically indicates a pump or hose connection failure.
Diagnosis
Upon inspection of the AWN432SP113TW04, we found the drain pump had failed and was allowing water to escape onto the floor during operation. The pump assembly needed complete replacement to restore proper water containment.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: 205217P-PUMP-COMP-(VIB-WELDED)MTW — complete drain pump assembly
- Work performed: Replaced drain pump
- Result: Washer now operates without leaking during wash cycles
Is It Worth Repairing?
Speed Queen washers are commercial-grade machines built for longevity, often lasting 15-20 years with proper maintenance. A drain pump replacement on these units is typically worthwhile given their robust construction and reputation for reliability.
Maintenance Tips for Speed Queen Washers
- Check and clean the drain pump filter monthly to prevent debris buildup
- Use only HE detergent in proper amounts to avoid excess suds that can strain pump components
- Inspect water supply hoses annually for signs of wear or bulging
