Amana Washer Lines and Features
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
- Washer not draining or not spinning. Amana's checks include a closed lid, a balanced and not overloaded load, excess suds from too much detergent, a kinked or clogged drain hose, and the drainpipe height. Source: Amana - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
- 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
Amana Washer Error Codes
