A Amana washer shares most of its basic parts with other washers, but its drive design, lid or door lock, controls and error codes are specific to the brand. We flag companies whose listing or website mentions Amana and fill in with nearby appliance repair companies so you always have options.
This is an independent directory. We are not affiliated with Amana, and the technicians listed are independent repair companies, not the manufacturer.

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
Common Amana Washer Problems
- 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
- 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
