A Kenmore washer on Sunford Avenue Southeast in North Canton wasn’t draining. The drain pump had failed and needed replacement to restore proper operation.
The Problem
The customer reported their Kenmore washer was not draining. Water remained in the tub after wash cycles, preventing the machine from completing its normal operation.
Diagnosis
Inspection revealed the drain pump had failed. This pump is responsible for removing water from the washer tub during the drain cycle, and when it stops working, water accumulates and prevents proper operation.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: WPW10661045 — drain pump
- Work performed: Ordered replacement pump and swapped it out
- Result: The washer is now operating correctly
Is It Worth Repairing?
Kenmore washers are generally reliable machines with good parts availability. The 110 series represents solid construction that typically justifies repair when major components like pumps fail, especially if the unit has been well-maintained.
Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Washers
- Check pockets for coins and small items before washing — these can damage the drain pump
- Use the appropriate amount of detergent to prevent excessive suds that stress the pump
- Run a cleaning cycle monthly with Kenmore-recommended washer cleaner to prevent buildup
