Amana Washer Lines and Features
How Amana Washers Are Built
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
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
