A Canton homeowner called when their Amana washer wouldn’t drain. We found a failed water pump that needed replacement to restore proper drainage and cycling.
The Problem
My washer won’t drain.
Diagnosis
The water pump had failed, preventing the washer from draining water during the cycle. This is a common failure point on washing machines, especially as they age.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: WPW10276397 — water pump
- Work performed: Replaced the water pump
- Result: The machine now cycles and drains properly
Is It Worth Repairing?
Amana washers are solid, reliable machines built by Whirlpool. A water pump replacement on this model is typically worthwhile, especially if the washer is otherwise functioning well. These units can provide many more years of service with proper maintenance.
Maintenance Tips for Amana Washers
- Check hoses regularly for kinks or clogs that can strain the water pump
- Clean the lint filter if equipped to prevent debris from reaching the pump
- Use appropriate detergent amounts to reduce excessive suds that can stress drainage components
