Kenmore Washer Repair – Louisville, OH (110.24632300)

A Louisville homeowner called us when their Kenmore washer stopped draining or spinning. Our technician found the drain pump had a sock stuck in it, which damaged the pump and caused it to leak.

The Problem

The customer reported their washer was not draining or spinning. Water remained in the tub after the wash cycle, and clothes came out soaking wet since the spin cycle wasn’t working.

Diagnosis

The drain pump had a sock stuck in it. This obstruction damaged the pump internally and caused it to leak. When foreign objects get lodged in drain pumps, they can crack the housing or damage the impeller, making the pump unable to function properly.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WP3363394 — water pump
• Work performed: Replaced the damaged drain pump
• Result: After replacing it, the washer operates properly

Is It Worth Repairing?

Kenmore washers from this era are solidly built machines that typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance. A drain pump replacement on a machine this age is usually a worthwhile repair, especially since the rest of the washer’s components are likely still in good condition.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Washers

• Always check pockets thoroughly before loading clothes — small items like socks, coins, and tissues can damage the drain pump
• Run a cleaning cycle monthly with washer cleaner or white vinegar to prevent buildup in the pump and hoses
• Leave the lid open after use to allow moisture to evaporate and prevent mold growth
