What a Amana Washer Technician Deals With
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 gives a drainpipe height range of 30 inches minimum to 96 inches maximum, and above the maximum, water can flow back into the washer. Source: Amana - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide
What Amana Says to Check First
- 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
- Washer odor. For front loaders, Amana says to clean and dry the door seal, take wet clothes out promptly, avoid overloading, and leave the door open between loads. Source: Amana - Cleaning a Front Load Washer Door Seal

|---|---|
| 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 |
| 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 |
| LdU | Top load: the lid can't unlock because something is sitting on top of the washer. Source: Amana - Error Codes in Top Load HE Washers |
