Jack June 12, 2019 for Model Number GLEH1642DS1 The washing machine washes and turns to wash. It will not fast spin and clothes come out soaking wet. I unclogged the filter and cleaned out the hoses. Is this a bad drain pump?
1 Answer Jack, if the water will drain fully but the basket does not spin fast, you may want to check the motor windings. At the motor, connection M1 to M2, connection M1 to M3, and connection M2 to M3 should all read 2.6 ohms. Connection M5 to M6 should read 184 ohms. If the windings fail this reading, the motor 134869400 would need to be replaced. Another thing to check is to ensure that the spin basket rotates freely. Read More...
Thom October 19, 2018 for Model Number LTF530FS0 A renter left a Fridgidaire Model LTF530FS0 5-cycle front loading washer behind when she moved out. I then tested it to see if I could leave in unit for next renter. I noticed that it discharges water from the rear flexible tubing immediately from when I turn it on to the very end and that the drum does not accumulate water within it like the ones I've seen at the laundromat. I then added my shirt and some Tide, ran it a second time, and noticed that bubbly soapy water comes out right after I turn it on and the water becomes less bubbly over a short period of time, without any accumulation of soapy water within the drum. What should I do?
2 Answers Thom, You can test for 120 vac at the drain pump constant from when you start a cycle. If that's the case replace the control board. Read More...

2 Answers Thom, The first thing to check is make sure that the hose is not pushed into the drain too far as this could cause a siphoning effect. If this does not correct the issue then it sounds like the drain pump may be running while going through the cycle which would most likely be a timer issue. It would be more likely the drain pushed into the standpipe too far. Read More...
Jay June 10, 2018 for Model Number FTF530FS1 Hi. It seems like the drain pump won't stop running. It pumps water fine but makes a pretty loud sound when most of the water is gone. During the spin cycle it never stops running so this loud noise just goes and goes. I took apart the pump and didn't find any obstructions or damage. The noise is still there. Is it normal to run so much? Any ideas? Thank you!
1 Answer Jay, It is normal for the pump to run during the spin cycle as water is being extracted from the clothes and being drained out. If the pump is noisy then it could be the pump being faulty. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Boxman68, While this sounds like it could be a water valve issue, we would need more information for a proper diagnosis. We will need the model number from your units' I.D. tag and if there are any sounds, lights, or other indications from the machine that it is getting power. Thank you for your patience and understanding in this matter. Read More...
Sergei K July 31, 2017 for Model Number Frigidaire FAFS4474LW0 Washing machine leaks during filling from the Tub to Pump Hose, where it connects to the tub with a retaining clamp with a screw. Water comes on the side where air chamber is, but not from the air chamber hose itself. I took it apart and the hose seems to be in good condition, no cracks, rips, etc. Assembled everything together, checked all the clamps etc. and it still leaks. Is the problem with the pump? Anything else?
1 Answer Sergei, With this issue of the tub to pump hose leaking, the issue will be either the tub itself is leaking or the pump is leaking, if it is leaking at the top of the tub then either the hose or the tub. Read More...
Joel R January 31, 2016 for Model Number ER13710108000 Hello, This is my second attempt to put in a pump. I've been told by the people that sold me the pump that I need to run water through it before I install it. They said it was because I didn't run water through it. What does that mean? How do I do it??? Joel
1 Answer Hello Joel. You should be able to install the pump without running water through it first. We have never heard of this. Read More...
