A Canton homeowner called us when their Admiral Gallery washer wouldn’t drain. We found the coin trap on the drain pump was completely clogged, preventing proper water evacuation.
The Problem
The customer reported that their washer won’t drain. Water was staying in the tub at the end of wash cycles, leaving clothes soaked and the machine unable to complete its program.
Diagnosis
Our inspection revealed the issue was with the drain pump’s coin trap. This component had accumulated enough debris to block water flow completely, causing the drainage failure.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: None required
- Work performed: Cleaned the coin trap out on the drain pump
- Result: Washer is now draining correctly
Is It Worth Repairing?
Admiral washers from this era were solid, no-frills machines built to last. When the repair is as simple as cleaning a clogged coin trap, it’s absolutely worth fixing rather than replacing the entire unit.
Maintenance Tips for Admiral Washers
- Check and clean the coin trap quarterly to prevent drainage blockages
- Remove coins, buttons, and small items from pockets before washing
- Run a cleaning cycle monthly to prevent soap buildup in the drain system
