Know Your Amana Washer
How Amana Washers Are Built
Amana front loaders with a user-cleanable pump filter are serviced from the front: a short drain hose is emptied into a container, then the filter is unscrewed counterclockwise, and the location varies by model. Source: Amana - Cleaning the Pump Filter - Front Load Washer
Amana Washer Symptoms and First Checks

What a Washing Machine Technician Checks
Care Amana Recommends for Its Washers
- With the water supply turned off, check the inlet screens on the water valve and brush them clean with mild soapy water, leaving the screens in place. Source: Amana - Checking the Fill Hoses if the Washer is not Filling
- Use only HE detergent, dosed for the load size and soil level, because too much causes oversudsing, longer cycles and poor rinsing. Source: Amana - HE Detergent use in a Washer
