How Amana Washers Are Built
A lid or door switch lets the washer run only when the lid is fully closed, so a bad switch can keep the washer from draining or spinning. Source: Amana - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
What Amana Says to Check First
- Too many suds. Amana says to use only HE detergent in the amount the detergent maker recommends for the load. Source: Amana - HE Detergent use in a Washer
- 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

Florida's construction licensing guidance says that paid work such as installing a dishwasher connected to drinking water or replacing a water heater requires a licensed contractor, and that a local business tax receipt or certificate of competency may also apply; it does not describe a separate state appliance repair license.

In Florida, you can check a license with the DBPR Verify a License (MyFloridaLicense.com) or report a problem to the Florida Attorney General, Office of Citizen Services / Consumer Protection.
