What a Amana Washer Technician Deals With
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
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
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
- Washer not filling. Amana says to start at the faucets and make sure both hot and cold are on, then check the inlet hoses for kinks and the inlet screens for clogs. Source: Amana - Checking the Fill Hoses if the Washer is not Filling
