How Amana Washers Are Built
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 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
- Too many suds. Amana says to use only HE detergent in the amount the detergent maker recommends for the load. Source: Amana - HE Detergent use in a Washer

What Gainesville Owners Should Know
Most washer calls in Gainesville 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.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
Questions to Ask a Gainesville Washer Technician
- If a part has to be ordered, how soon can you come back to finish?
