GE Spacemaker Washing Machine Not Draining
Model: WSLS1100H0WW
I was given this combo unit a while back and it recently stopped draining.
Upon troubleshooting, I found:
* It will spin if select “Spin Only” and there is no water present.
- If I put the hose on the ground, it will siphon drain. (I brought it outside to troubleshoot and I ran it with clean water, no soap)
- The drain pump makes a humming noise
- The drain pump is not clogged with anything
- None of the hoses going to the drain pump are clogged.
- I recently purchased a replacement Official GE drain pump and it still will not drain
- The washer is able to detect when the lid is not shut because it beeps to close lid when it’s running a cycle. I’m not ruling this out, but it’s at least a little functional.
After a while of the washer not draining, it says “Drain” on the display. Basically it wants me to drain it so it can advance to the next cycle.
So, before I start buying more parts, I want to ask the friendly people of ifixit!
Thanks, Nicole
