What Makes Amana Washer Repairs Different

Common Amana Washer Problems
- Washer shaking or walking. Amana says to spread the load evenly, make sure the shipping bolts were removed, and adjust the feet until all four touch the floor and the washer doesn't rock. Source: Amana - Washer is Vibrating, Walking or Moving
- Washer not draining or not spinning. Amana's checks include a closed lid, a balanced and not overloaded load, excess suds from too much detergent, a kinked or clogged drain hose, and the drainpipe height. Source: Amana - Washer Not Draining or Spinning? Troubleshooting Guide

What Goose Creek Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Goose Creek 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.
South Carolina does not issue a license specific to appliance repair; mechanical work such as plumbing, heating, air conditioning and refrigeration is licensed by the Contractor's Licensing Board for commercial-scale jobs and by the Residential Builders Commission for residential HVAC and plumbing.

In South Carolina, you can check a license with the SC LLR License Lookup or report a problem to the South Carolina Department of Consumer Affairs.
