What Makes Amana Washer Repairs Different
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
What Amana Says to Check First
- Washer not filling. Amana says to start at the faucets and make sure both hot and cold are on, then check the inlet hoses for kinks and the inlet screens for clogs. Source: Amana - Checking the Fill Hoses if the Washer is not Filling
- Lid won't lock or unlock. Amana says to clear anything caught under the lid and any detergent buildup around the lock, and to take items such as a laundry basket off the top of the washer. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Top Load HE Washers
Reading a Amana Washer Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| Ofb | Top load: the load is unbalanced, and the washer will try to rebalance it on its own. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Top Load HE Washers |
| F7 E1 | Front load: motor speed sensing error, so check that the shipping bolts are out and the washer isn't overloaded. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Front Load Washers |
| OL | Top load: the load is too big, so the washer drains and some items need to come out. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Top Load HE Washers |
