If your washer won't drain, check these: It spins, but doesn't pump It doesn't spin or pump It pumps, but the water returns It spins, but doesn't pump If your washer spins but doesn't pump the water out, the drain line is probably clogged. In many washers, a small sock or other piece of clothing can get between the clothes tub and the outer tub that holds the water. If the clothing gets between the tubs, it may then get into the drain hose that's attached to the pump--or even into the pump itself. If it's in the pump, you need to remove the hoses from the pump and pull the item out. To remove the sock from the outer tub port, open the washer's main access panel and remove the large-diameter rubber hose that connects the pump to the bottom of the outer tub. Then, using needle-nose pliers, try to grab and remove the clothing through the port. Sometimes you can't remove the stuck clothing from below. Then you have to remove the agitator, top of the outer drum shield, and inner clothes tub. This isn't easy to do--and you may need special tools--so you might be happier getting a qualified appliance repair technician to do the job. If the drain line isn't plugged, the problem may be with your pump. Even if the pump appears to be turning, the internal impeller may be broken. If so, you need to replace the pump. It doesn't spin or pump If your washer doesn't spin or pump water out but the motor is running, your washer probably has a frozen pump pulley. If so, you need to replace the pump. To check the pulley, remove the pump from the washer and try to rotate the pulley manually. If it doesn't turn freely--if it's frozen or stiff--replace it. It pumps, but the water returns If the water that pumps out of the machine goes back into the machine after the spin cycle, your washer may be siphoning the water from a laundry tub that has a slow drain, back into the washer. The usual remedy for this is to improve the draining of the laundry tub. (Is something stuck in the drain?) Also, check for these problems: If the drain hose reaches more than about 4 inches into the laundry tub, cut off the excess. If your drain hose is lower than the washer's cabinet, install an air gap/siphon break assembly.

Replace the water drain assembly! no power display but I can hear the water drain pump

If your refrigerator is not displaying power, but you can hear the water drain pump running, the issue may be related to the water drain assembly. Here are a few steps you can try to replace the water drain assembly:
  1. Unplug the refrigerator from the power source.
  2. Locate the water drain assembly. It is typically located at the bottom of the refrigerator near the back.
  3. Drain any remaining water from the assembly by disconnecting the drain hose.
  4. Remove the old water drain assembly by unscrewing or unclipping it from the refrigerator.
  5. Install the new water drain assembly by reversing the steps used to remove the old one.
  6. Reconnect the drain hose and plug the refrigerator back in.
It is important to refer to the manufacturer's manual for specific instructions on how to replace the water drain assembly on your refrigerator, as the process may vary depending on the model and design.
It is also important to note that this may not solve the problem of no power display, it might be related to other electronic or electrical issues, like a blown fuse or a malfunctioning control board. It's better to contact a professional technician to diagnose and fix the issue.

Miele G843SCVI+ Won't Drain, But Restarting the Cycle Will Drain then Fill Up Again

Anytime a cycle is interrupted and a new cycle is selected, the dishwasher will start by draining water first. This is so any water that was accidentally spilled while loading the dishwasher is drained or in your case, water that was left over from the last cycle. When draining problems occur, the dishwasher will drain some water but not all. The timer only allows about 60 seconds for water to discharge. It will not accommodate for a clog.

The most common reason why a dishwasher wont completely drain water is a clog at the end of the discharge hose where the disposal and hose meet. If this should happen, clear the clog and replace entire
hose. A clog can happen inside the dishwasher as well.

How do I drain the water tank

Anon, Make sure gas or breaker(power) is turned off to the Heater so it will not come on during draining,connect a hose onto bottom valve of water heater, run hose to a floor drain and insert, turn your water main off so as not to fill tank while draining, open water heater drain valve, water will then drain from attached hose into floor drain until empty. For water to run faster you may open a near by hot water tap, this will allow air into tank as you drain it, do not forget to turn this tap off before refilling tank. You then can turn main back on for a bit if you would like to do a flush of sediment from the bottom of tank.

My dishwsaher wont drain water

Two things to consider....clean water or dirty water?

Clean water usually indicates the fill valve is not shutting off all the way and the fill valve is "weeping" water in all the time = new fill valve time!!

Dirty water usually is not a dishwasher problem but more of a plumbing issue. Often the sink drain that carries the sinks water outside is not fast enough and some of this sink water is backing up into the drain hose and filling up the dishwasher through the drain hose. The drain from the sink to outside needs attention as this type of a problem indicates a slow house drain for that sink.

The dishwasher drain line should be clamped to the top underneath part of the counter before entering the sink drain plumbing, this may help the water from coming back inside the dishwasher.

Water puddles front left of side by side ge profile fridge

If you clear the drain, the water will not fill up again. (try hot, but not boiling, water, forced into the drain hole with a turkey baster) When drain is clear, water will run into the drain pan located near the compressor. The fan will cause that water to evaporate.
