How To Fix

[@ucmenteith]

I couldn't find someone to work on my Samsung in a reasonable amount of time. Thanks to your video and 2 day shipping, I've got my washer working again and it only cost me 27 bucks. Thank you!

[@MrBullgod777]

Extremely helpful video i actually had a stuck flapper and a piece of something stuck in the propeller housing. Saved me a call to the repair guy!!❤❤❤ thanks for the step by step directions

[@cdrogers72]

I have the same model in stainless finish and after almost 20 years of being awesome, it stopped draining. Thanks for the video. I replaced the same pump motor and found mine had water inside! I inspected the old motor and the magnets felt strong but it sloshed when shaken. I installed a new motor from the jungle site, and it seems to be fixed. Saved me from having to buy a new washer! Praise Jesus!!🎉 Hallelujah. 🎉 Happy Father's day!!😅

If the filter and drain pump check out, look at the drain hose from the drum to the pump. Is it clogged with accumulated gunk? If the drain lines are clear, it is probably the controller board. These washers are known to blow the relay (a $0.25 part) that controls the drain pump. The controller assemblies are not readily available, if at all (EOL'ed by Samsung after 5 or so years). Used ones can be found on Ebay--caveat emptor. The controller board from a model one up or one down on the Samsung product offerings for a given model run will often work--the wash cycles will be different on the dial or not available. For example--if the controller comes from a lesser model, it may not offer the sanitize (heat) cycle, but all the other features are the same. The various large online parts vendors have good information about OE part numbers and subsequent replacement part numbers.

Seems like what I've been experiencing. The pcb looks good visually. I'll have to find that drain relay tomorrow then.

[@julietechotangohotelalphai1148]

May I ask, I do not get any voltage to the pump, it could be a relay problem right? Wirings are fine.

[@pedrosmyth8366]

This is for a Samsung washer. An LG should be similar in practice.

[@HePBHuq]

Nice guide. Mine had clogged filter, fixed it real quick, but this was informative and I have learned something new.

[@RichardCookRocks]

My washer was a slightly different model, WF520ABP/XAA and when I went to take off the front panel like in the video, the bottom would not release. We ended up tilting the bottom up to take a look, and the bottom of the panel had 3 screws there. After removing those, I could remove the panel fully. If your panel doesn't remove easily like in the video, then check for those.

This was very helpful! Additionally, because I didn’t want to replace the pump and motor, I took them apart. Both were clogged with lent and gunk. Cleaned them out along with the small fill hose and drain hose. Works like new.

[@teresalewis7326]

Thank you for the video. I was able to change the pump and get it back running in a few hours - I kept going and back and looking at the video. I first replace the pump in February 2021. It worked great. Now the same error came up and it sounded like the pump was not spinning or it would stop too early. I ordered another pump on Amazon and installed and washer is again working - no errs

[@teresalewis7326]

When I look at the first replacement pump I took out there appears to be water inside the pump motor area. Pump was used for about 7 months. Is shaft seal on the little impeller supposed to seal water from entering the motor portion? I assume that if the motor is supposed to stay dry and it is wet that would lead to problems.

[@Lucascain66]

[@grunt9131]

This was the first video that actually showed how to put that wire back on I appreciate that but I think my washer still screwed. I checked continuity in the pump and it was fine so now I really have no clue why it will not drain

[@DIYRepairsNow]

The drain pump have two fixtures electronically and mechanically when you check continuity you checking the electrical Winings for the motor the mechanical will be the blade in the rest of the housing 90% of the time the motor is going to test good but the blade or the blade rotor is bad if you try to spend the blade and you don’t feel tension your drain pump is bad also check the check valve which is the flapper rubber piece

[@grunt9131]

Good evening. Thanks for the video. I have a Samsung: WF448AAP/XAA I was getting the drain pump failure. I ordered the new pump and installed it. I started a cycle and it stayed stuck on the last rinse/spin cycle. I powered the machine off and put it on a spin cycle and it completely drained the machine. Machine is also not dispensing the downy. Pump seems to be working. Any ideas? Thanks for your help!

[@donacianotalamantes8992]

same here, did you fix yours/

[@bootyholeman5659]

Thanks for the instructions. But the washer will not work correctly without that check valve. The check valve is not there to prevent water from the drain pipe coming back in. During some cycles the washer has a very small amount of water it wants to remove. This small amount it not enough to make it up the drain hose so it will keep running back down to the pump if you don't have the check valve. You will eventually get a drain error.

[@donutz1]

That sounds right to me. My pump tests fine, no blockages or gunk anywhere, so i think it's that little black check valve/flapper. This is a very frustrating problem that is difficult to diagnose because everything looks fine.

[@kevinj9030]

This helped a lot. Thanks.

[@adamkasarda1307]

Great video! Replaced my motor yesterday with no issues because of your video. Still having the same issue though, No Drain. New pump works, it was moving water the first time I ran it. Now just give me the same error. I've checked all lines for obstructions/gunk and found nothing. Check valve looked good. Back to the drawing board! Anyone have advice?!

[@fatguylungs333]

Do you have a moment to maybe help me? Our washing machine has decided not to drain it's water anymore. Unless when you put on 'flush and centrifuge' then it drains, and during the program fills it with water again just to leave it at the end of the program again. So I know it's able to drain and push the water out. It just won't. And doesn't give me an error or anything either. 😂 Would you have any idea ?? It's a Samsung Eco bubble ofc (I'm Dutch so maybe the term isn't right 😂)

[@AlbertHorvath]

You da MAN! Thanks!

[@waltercardenas7354]

Does it have two pumps? One in the back and one in the front.

[@grunt9131]

Some little thing that meant nothing to most people at the end of your video where you said keep the drain hose only a few inches from the top fixed my problem now for some reason it does drain but it will not fill up with water.. it switched on me😖😖😖😖

[@DIYRepairsNow]

If it’s not filling in water you’ll probably need a water valve you have to make sure you’re getting enough water pressure from the water valve also check the filters on the water valve itself and make sure they are clean if you have a multimeter tester check if you get an 120 V at the water valve when it supposed to be filling in

[@britnysnyder4991]

So my washer looks like its missing that little black hose that sticks out of the front by the filter. It's a Wf218anb/xaa Samsung. Should it have that little hose? And if so can I buy just that and put it on or do I need to replace that whole thing? Also would that piece being gone make it not drain?

[@pedrosmyth8366]

It should drain w/o the hose. It's just there to be able to direct the water into a container. Any piece of tubing with the right diameter should be ok.

[@yvonnebgil]

I have the same issue, but, in my case I replaced the draining pump twice already and still not draining. By the way I also replace the door lock to see if that was the problem but still not working. and code still appears, can you please help me?

[@sarahwells3961]

Samsung washer, replaced the pump today, but it didn't start working again. In pump test mode, a big fat nothing. I can't find any good troubleshoot for the real problem. The old pump I pulled is actually a functioning pump, so I can't figure out what the matter is.

[@calvini.8211]

I have the same issue.most likely the voltage going to the pump(120Vac) is missing, which I believe is controlled by the relay RY7 on the board. Im searching for a replacement as I have read from somebody here that samsung no longer manufactures the whole PCB

[@joeantol4766]

Mine was the relay, you have to order the relay from an electronics site and cut it out of the silicone caulk it’s buried in and I believe cut a slot in the plastic behind it with a dremel to access the solder joints to unsolder and install a new one. It work for a couple of years but now any time it has a large load it doesn’t drain and have to run a spin cycle and it drains just fine.

[@Edub816]

I’m having an issue that maybe you could help with. My Samsung washer wf42h5200ap/a2z It isn’t draining and the pump was replaced. I have constant 120 volt (even off) on the blue wire to case ground. It looks like the purple completes the neutral on the control board. I’m thinking. It’s a relay in the board. Is there anything else that could prevent the board to call to drain (even in test mode)? It’s a pretty expensive part. Especially if it does not solve the problem. Great video! Thank you in advance!

[@DIYRepairsNow]

The only thing there is sending signal to the board to send power to the pump will be the pressure switch but if the pump was replaced and it worked fine for a little while that means it’s not the pressure switch for what you’re telling me The relay it turns on the drain pump in the main control board got stuck on the on position so my suggestion will be replaced main control board

Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us. Besides of the drain pump, could it be anything else causing the washer not to drain? I just changed my pump. It is still not working, not even the humming sound of the pump. I am wondering if there is any power coming into the pump at all. I do not have a spinning problem because after I manually drains it, I ran a spin cycle. It spins as it should. I ran a quick wash. When it gets to rinse from the wash cycle, it stops and nd code appears. I would run a rinse + spin cycle. It stops right before spin with the same code. Anyone please your help is appreciated.

It would be most helpful to view the "diagnosis" procedure? In other words, what led to condemning the pump? Or what if the drain pump is not receiving the 120 volts it requires for operation? How would this situation be diagnosed? Also, please lose the background "elevator music". It adds nothing but annoyance.

[@Edub816]

I’m in the same boat. Thinking it’s the board but not sure how to be sure. FYI. It seems mine has constant 120 of the power board and the control board completes the circuit.
