Rose for Model Number Lg front load washing machine Do all LG front load washers have a recirculating pump? My washer won’t drain. We had this problem before and a repair guy came out and replaced the drain pump. When it happened again we did some troubleshooting of our own and took the face off to make sure no drain hoses were clogged because we can hear the motor running just no water is coming out. Nothing was clogged but I did notice that on my assembly there is a filter hose connection drain hose connection and what looks like there should be a hose connected to it but nothing is there. Could a disconnected or missing hose from a recirculating pump be the cause of it not draining?
Answer Rose, not all units will have a recirculating pump. If an item gets stuck between the spin basket and the outer tub, it can get caught in the tub to pump hose where water drains through. This would need to be inspected as well as inside of the drain pump housing where the impeller is. If these are clear, then it is possible that there may be a clog in the drain hose going from the drain pump housing to the standpipe in the wall. If an item did pass through the housing and past the coin catch filter, it is possible that it could have damaged the drain pump impeller and this would need to be inspected as well. Read More...
