My Washing Machine Is No Longer Draining Water Out?

If you can hear your washing machines pumps working, but there is no water coming out of the washing machine, chances are that a rubber drainage pipe running from the rear of the machine to a drainage standpipe or sink at the rear of the machine is plugged with fabric fibers. To test for a clog, you will need to first remove as much water as you can from your washing machine, because any remaining water can be vented out as soon as you release the washers drain hose. If your washing machines pump does not make any operating noises, or you do not find obstructions in either the pump or drain hose, then your water pump is likely broken and needs replacing.

To fix obstructions, you will have to turn off and drain your washing machine, and then remove the wash machine panel to inspect your water pump. If the water is successfully flushed from your washing machine, but is then spilling from the spout pipe in the stall, or backing up into your washing tub, the issue is probably an ordinary drain clog.

If the drain is clogged, then the machine cannot push the water upwards through the tubing. The hose carrying the water out the back of the machine The rear part of the machine may have an issue with the hose not draining correctly. The hose between the machine and your drain pipe should not be bent or clogged.

Disconnect your drainage hose (have a bucket or other big container ready to catch any water) and shine your flashlight inside to check it for any blockages.

Hold the drain hose up straight in the air, as water can begin to spray out if the end goes under your washing machines water line. To test for clogs in the hose, make sure to shut the washer off and move the washer around so that you have access where the drain hose attaches to the washer. If your washing machine does not drain when you place the drain hose into a big bucket, the reason for this issue is most likely still a clog somewhere deep within the hose you cannot see.

At that point, you can pretty sure there is not a clog in your drain hose, and that the issue is related to your washers internals – your pump, the belt, lid switch, etc. Once you have cleared any blockages, and the water has passed through the blockages, you can reattach the hoses, and power your washer back on to check whether your washer is draining. If the hose behind your washer is bent, it could prevent the draining of your otherwise-functional machine.

The hose may have become blocked somehow, meaning that water is trapped inside the washing machines wringer, or your washing machine is slowly draining (we are talking painfully slow!). Problems in the home water supply could cause your front-loading washing machine to drain very slowly, or to drain at all. If you placed the washing machine too far off the ground, the machine might be unable to suck the water out, or it might drain very slowly.

If, at any time while washing, items in the wringer are off-balance, the washer may be unable to spin, and the machine may be unable to complete the remainder of the cycle. If you go to the wash in anticipation of moving your wet clothes into the dryer, only to find your clothes are wet from soaping, with water still sitting on the bottom of the tub, then your machine is not draining properly. When your Samsung washing machine is not draining, finding that your clothes are sitting in water in the washing tub is a red flag.

When your washer cannot cycle water from the clothes, or it cannot get all of the water from the machine, you are left with a wet, heavy load. If your washer is not draining, or spinning, your water level controls might be malfunctioning. The more water you can drain from your washing machine, the better, as it makes it more difficult to get clothes through once saturated.

If you open the lid after the functioning washer stops running and discover that your clothes are swimming in water, then clearly something is not right. If your washing machine returns in a matter of seconds, the blockage is probably quite near, and it can be cleared by using a small powered snake that works its way down through your tubs drain standpipe.

If the drain pump is not damaged or blocked with water, it still does not appear to be draining in the washing or washing cycles. If you feel the pump seem to be running while doing one of those drain cycles, but water is going down slowly or not at all.
There are other reasons why your unit might stop draining, such as a cracked cover switch, bent hose, blockage in drain pipe, or any number of other issues that could be keeping water in your reservoir once a cycle is completed. When a filter is dirty on your drain pipe, this may result in the washing cycle running longer, leaving water in the machine after the rinse cycle. This means that your drain pipe may get bent, bent, or looped on itself, which will result in clogged water flows.

Anything that impacts the capacity of your washing machine to properly flush the water out will result in the water backing up in the washing machine, as there is simply no other place for the water to go. The first thing you need to do is disconnect your washer from an outlet and remove the washer from the wall so that you can get access to the rear panel, if your pump drain filter is located behind the washer, but on most front-loading machines, the filter is located in the front.
