  • Is your washer not working, spinning, or draining? In this video I show the most common solution to a washer that is not spinning, not draining, or draining really slow. Oftentimes this fix does not even require any tools so most homeowners can easily take care of it themselves.

    Absolutely brilliant! I thought I'd have to buy a new integrated machine but all it needed was shown on this video. I'm a 75 year old woman and even I could understand it. Just wonderful! Thankgoodness my sisrer advised me to check out problems via TH-cam. Well done the young man in this video. From a grateful pensioner in Dundee, Scotland. xx

    You saved the day and probably a new washer! Never even knew it had a filter! Took it out, full of grit, 2 coins, 2 hair bands, one was wrapped around the pump cog, had to pull it out of it! Plenty of towels needed!! Now our washer is working again! Fabulous! Thank you so very much :-))

    Anytime my front loader has ever glitched, it is the drain. Once, a child gave me a small shell (I’m a teacher) and I left it in my pocket. The shell had wedged itself in the little blade that pushes the water out. The second time, I made the mistake of being cheap and diluted my liquid soap. I had to drain and reset. My son is an engineer and he always says, “look for the most simplistic thing and work up the ladder and stay calm”. Both times I fixed it myself. The hardest part was moving the washer/ dryer combo out from the wall and cleaning up the water spillage as my front loader gives no clearance between the drain and the floor.
    I wish someone would install lockable wheels on these machines- it sure would make life so much easier.

    Great video. Informative, precise, and entertaining. I like making old appliances work again and come to life when people give up on them or discard them. Sometimes the fixes aren't too bad. The cost of the part is how I weigh whether or not it's worth fixing.

    My washer was spinning twice then the door kept unlocking. Decided to try this and ended up with a whole bunch of water coming out. Drained it and clean the filter a bit, which wasn’t too bad. Washer works fine now. Didn’t have to bother my condo maintenance man. Thanks!

    Good morning from Houston, Texas. The video information / advice regarding the front load drain and filter was absolutely correct. The tip on tilting the washer back excellent, there was more water than I expected. After clearing the filter the washer started operating. Initially, I had gone to the online manuals and the codes indicated out of balance; after following the suggestions without success, the last suggestion was to call for either telephone diagnostics and or a repairman. I watched two TH-cam vides before finding yours; and decided to check the filter...Thank you. I will also check out your various advice videos.

    Too bad the engineers that design these appliances design them have problems with time. You shouldn't have to take your washer apart to access these filters and make them work.

      100 percent! But that’s just how the world works now a days. A .10 cent part is keeping the company from making another sale. Because if the customer doesn’t know how to fix or someone who doesn’t have the time they will just get a new one. And 10 of 10 most of the time they will buy the same company appliance for whatever reason (color matching, function layout, etc.)

    The title image solved it for me. My washer was rocking by 3/8 of an inch. So it would spin to medium speed, be unable to balance the load due to frame wobble, then never spin to full speed. When we bought the washer used it came with that foot missing and the stated condition of being unreliable. This is the first time for me in 5 years that it was unreliable. Sticking a piece of gravel from the driveway under that corner fixed it. Now to get an actual foot with a lock nut.
