Why Does My LG Washer Not Drain?

If you feel the clothes are still wet after the cycle, there is a strong necessity to check your appliance. As a rule, this issue is accompanied by noise. Sometimes, small objects or articles of clothing can get caught in the drain pump. To determine if anything is blocking the drain pump, remove the drain pump and check the pump for obstructions. If you find no obstruction in your drain hose or pump it’s possible the pump has malfunctioned and can’t draw out water. This is likely if you run a wash cycle and hear no noise from the pump. A malfunctioning drain pump requires replacement but can be a complex repair. In this case, we recommend a professional service. However, there are more reasons for not running motor and weird sounds. So the above fixes may not be the answer to the improper spin cycle. However, they’re certainly a good starting point for most machines as the issues above are the most common problems stopping a washing machine from normal functioning. Regular washer maintenance is important to get good operation from your appliance and extend its lifespan. You should set up a weekly and monthly maintenance schedule. Preventative care, even in small amounts, will help save on expensive repairs or even a washing machine replacement later on. Contact our customer support and arrange an appointment.
