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
What Amana Says to Check First
- 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
