Flood Hose (outer Tub)

Bill for Model Number whdrr418g1ww

Answer Hello Bill! If you disconnect power to the washer does it continue to fill? If so, you will need to replace the water valve WH13X10027. If it shuts off, make sure that the water pressure hose is not clogged. If it is not, replace the water pressure switch WH12X10069. Hope this helps!

Answer Hello Bill. Check and make sure the pump and the drain hose is not clogged and not draining fast enough. Hope this helps.

Answer Hello Torri. If the water is coming from the flood hose as the unit spins, you will need to order and replace the flood gasket on the unit.

Answer Hi. Jump together the lid switch part # WH12X10141 to see if it is bad. The lid switch magnet is part WH12X10276. If the water is left in the basket then the pressure switch will not allow the unit to spin. Make sure the pump is clear and it drains well. If so then jumper the pressure switch wires together to "trick" the board into thinking the water is out and it can advance into a spin. Look at the lid top to see if it is concave as if there was a basket of clothes set on top of it? If so it off sets the lid switch so it does not align correctly with the magnet. Use the bottom of your butted-fist to pop the underside of the top back up. When the tub is spinning on the normal cycle doe it tilt to one side? If so then the tub supports front part # WH16X543 (1-ea.) and the back part # is WH16X544 (1ea.). With the clothes out does it final a spin cycle as if the timer is OK. We have to decide if this is a electrical issue stopping or a mechanical one. Remove the agitator to see if the Agitator drive bell part # WH49X10042 is damaged. Reach in and see if the inner basket tub nut part # WH2X1193 under the agitator is loose throwing the inner basket off balance. Inspect the motor part # WH20X10019 and remove the belt part # WH1X2026 to see if Motor alone will finish the cycle and the motor itself is OK and not overheating. Find the wiring diagram to see if it explains the field diagnostic chart. You may have a control board that is bad. Thank You.

Answer Katie, If the tub cover had come loose, or dislodged, that would explain the leak on the"super load" setting. Apparently, you had a heavy off balanced load, or the washer got jumbled in a move. You will need to replace the cracked "flood hose" eventually, there is still a possibility of a leak from it, due to the crack, but no it won't flood, basically it re directs water back into the tub, in the event of a slow drain, or slight overfill situation. Thanks

Answer Hi D.E. There is a upper outer tub seal that the flood hose goes into. This is part # WH1X2729. It will crack get hardened and leak. Carefully look everything over again with all connections and proper hose routing. You do not want electric cords or the hoses slapping against the cabinet and tub or base. Use all clips provided to help this. Tighten -up so to speak on your way out of the machine. Thank You.
