Possible Causes
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Small items may have been caught
in pump or between basket and tub,
which can slow draining.
Using cycles with a lower spin speed.
Washer may be tightly packed or
unbalanced.
Check plumbing for correct drain
hose installation. Drain hose extends into
standpipe farther than 4.5" (114 mm).
Not using HE detergent or using too
much HE detergent.
Check for proper water supply.
Energy-saving controlled wash

Check for proper water supply.
Not using HE detergent or using too

Only use HE detergent. Suds from regular detergents can slow or
stop the washer. Always measure detergent and following detergent
directions based on your load requirements.
To remove suds, cancel cycle. Select RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN. Select
your cycle. Press START/PAUSE. Do not add more detergent.
Empty pockets and use garment bags for small items.
Cycles with lower spin speeds remove less water than cycles with
high spin speeds. Use the recommended cycle/speed spin for your
garment.
Tightly packed loads may not allow the washer to spin correctly,
leaving the load wetter than normal. Evenly arrange the wet
load for balanced spinning. Select RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN
to remove excess water. See "Using Your Washer" for loading
recommendations.
Check drain hose for proper installation. Use drain hose form and
securely attach to drainpipe or tub. Do not tape over drain opening.
Lower drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m) above the floor.
Remove any clogs from drain hose.
Suds from regular detergent or using too much detergent
can slow or stop draining or spinning. Use only HE detergent.
Always measure and follow detergent directions for your load.
To remove extra suds, select RINSE/DRAIN & SPIN. Do not
add detergent.
Make sure hot and cold inlet hoses are not reversed.
Both hoses must be attached to both washer and faucet, and have
both hot and cold water flowing to inlet valve.
Check that inlet valve screens are not clogged.
Remove any kinks in hoses.
