Symptoms That May Indicate a Drain Pump Problem
If your washer has standing water after the cycle, the drain pump is one component worth checking. Common symptoms include:
1. Washer Not Draining
The washer completes the wash cycle but water remains in the tub.
2. Water Left in the Tub
A clogged pump, blocked drain hose, or defective pump can prevent water from being removed properly.
3. Unusual Pump Noise
Grinding, humming, rattling, or other unusual sounds during draining may indicate a problem with the pump.
4. Spin Cycle Problems
Some washers may not complete the spin cycle properly when water cannot drain from the tub.
5. Wet Clothes
If water remains in the washer, clothes may come out excessively wet at the end of the cycle.
Important: These symptoms do not always mean the drain pump itself is defective. Check the drain hose and pump area for obstructions before replacing the part.
