Reji Phillips November 05, 2017 for Model Number MHWE550WR My washer is showing F21 code. Opened up the drain line found it completely clogged. Cleaned all, put all back and started the cycle. As soon as drain time comes F21 code comes up again. Opened and cleaned it again but code comes back again. What is the problem? If its water pump do you have the right water drain pump for my model? Please need your advise.
1 Answer Reji, If you do need the drain pump, the part number is 280187 / 8182821. The F21 indicates a long drain time, when you cleaned the drain pump the second time, was it clogged again ? and did you check the drain hoses (from tub to drain pump and drain pump to drain pipe) for clogs or restrictions ? If the drain pump and hose3s are OK, you may want to disconnect the air tube from the water level switch, blow in the end of the tube, this usually clears any debris or sediment in the tube and connections so the air flows properly to the switch. If the switch isn't reacting properly when the washer fills or drains, it could also cause a F21 error code. Read More...

1 Answer Hello Barry. You will need to remove the screw securing the pump then slide the pump out of the unit. Thanks. Read More...
Barry September 29, 2017 for Model Number wfw9550ww00 Diagnostic showed error code F21, drainage/pump problem but selection control is not working.. Power button lights up but then the cycle light is not the same as the one selected and then pressing that function shuts off the power. For example, if the normal wash function is selected the quick wash light comes on, then if you press the start button it shuts off the power.
1 Answer Barry, Based on this information, it would be recommended to see if the drain pump is getting 120 vac to it but if is not then this will most likely be a faulty main control board. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Alfonso. You will need to check and make sure the unit is draining and the pressure hose is not clogged on the unit. Also, look for a flashing error code on the top of the motor in the unit. This could indicate a spin issue or bad lid switch issue. Read More...
Susan September 06, 2017 for Model Number MHWE450WW01 My machine continuously shows the F21 code after the wash cycle and will not drain on the last cycle part. We have taken the drain hose out and cleaned it and cleaned everything else. It works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. I have gone through the entire reset and now it will not drain at all and I have clothes in int. Does this mean I need a new wash drain pump? Help Thank you
1 Answer Susan, Check the drain pump to see if it is getting 120 vac to it and if it is then the drain pump would need to be replaced. If it is not then the control board would be the issue. Read More...
David August 22, 2017 for Model Number GWH9100LW2 What is new and improved about the pump? Is it worth replacing even if its not bad?

Tubby May 22, 2017 for Model Number GHW9150PW1 Whirlpool Duet washer Model GHW9150PW1 leaves water in tub over night. Removed filter and found little to no debris. Impeller wobbles on pump. Should impeller wobble? Would pump assy. p/n 280187 be the viable solution? Please advise. Thank you
1 Answer Hello Tubby. If the water is not draining during the cycle then yes, you will need to replace the drain pump 280187. If it is clean water coming into the tub, you will need to replace the water valve on the unit. Read More...
Phil P January 29, 2017 for Model Number WTW6200SW1 When the washer begins the last spin cycle it makes a grinding noise until finished. What would cause the grinding noise even though it goes through the whole spin cycle and runs the normal time doing a good job.. seems like I would have to pull the tub out to find the cause. Okay, how do I open the top to get the tub out?
1 Answer Phil, You would want to check between the tubs to make sure that there is nothing caught in between the tubs. If there is not then this will most likely be caused by a faulty bearing on the tub. Read More...
John January 13, 2017 for Model Number WFW9600TA00 I'll try this again My washer seems to get stuck in the Rinse/Spin Cycle, it will spin then tumble a little then spin again over and over; it doesn't seem to refill with water just repeating the spin cycle. When I stop/pause it, it gives me a SUDS alarm although there are no suds in the machine. What are your thoughts as to what may be my issue? Thank you for your time.
1 Answer John, The SUDS would indicate a that the drain pump has gone into a suds lock and does not seem to drain all the water. What this could be caused by is a clogged pressure hose or something in the drain filter that is causing the water to flow slower than normal. The other thing that could cause this is if the pressure switch is not resetting. Read More...
