The Problem

The customer reported their Kenmore washer wont drain or spin. The door remained locked after the wash cycle, trapping clothes inside with standing water.

• Result: The wash machine is operating correctly

Is It Worth Repairing?

Kenmore front load washers are generally reliable machines, and this model can provide many more years of service when properly maintained. A simple blockage like this doesn’t indicate any major mechanical problems, making it definitely worth clearing rather than replacing the entire unit.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Front Load Washers

• Check and clean the coin trap every 3-6 months to prevent drainage blockages
• Leave the door slightly open after each wash to allow air circulation and prevent mold
• Run a cleaning cycle monthly with washer cleaner or white vinegar to remove soap residue
