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
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
Common Amana Washer Problems
- 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
- 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
Amana Washer Error Codes
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| Sud / Sd | There are too many suds, and the washer adds rinsing to clear them. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Front Load Washers |
| HC | Top load: the hot and cold inlet hoses are connected backward. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Top Load HE Washers |
| F5 E2 | Front load: the door isn't locking properly. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Front Load Washers |

Keeping a Amana Washer Running
- On front loaders, wipe the door seal clean and dry its folds, take wet clothes out promptly, and leave the door open between uses. Source: Amana - Cleaning a Front Load Washer Door Seal
- 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

Laundry Notes for Framingham, MA
Most washer calls in Framingham come down to the same handful of parts: the drain pump and filter, the lid switch or door lock, the drive belt or coupler, the inlet valve and the suspension.
Massachusetts does not issue a separate appliance repair license; running fuel gas piping to appliances and installing their vent piping is gas fitting work that requires a license from the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters.

In Massachusetts, you can check a license with the Massachusetts Division of Occupational Licensure eLIPSE license verification portal or report a problem to the Massachusetts Attorney General's Office, Consumer Advocacy and Response Division.
