Maytag MAH 24 does not drain and makes weird humming noise

My Maytag MAH 24 gave me an error message of "nd" and it did not finish through the rinse and drain cycle. I paused it and powered down and when I powered it back up it now just makes a weird humming noise. Since there is still some water in the machine, the door won't unlock and it won't drain/spin. Is there a re-set button on this machine so I can get my clothes out?

    My washer is the same model, same problem, what is this? What's wrong? I tried moving the drain hose around, manually draining it and restarting the cycle after unplugging and after flipping the breaker. Anyone?

I also have this problem. to get the door to unlock, just unplug the washer and it should open in a min or two. you will hear a click. you may have a mini flood but at least you can get your cloths out and bail out the water. my problem started when i began using a new detergent from Tide called total care. Still tying to get the pump to work.

Not draining can be caused by the controller, pump, solenoid valve, or clogged drain.

The washer ran fine then stopped with water not draining. When I push the on button I get a buzz or humming noise .nothing moves. There is no error code.

Sounds as if you have something doen in the pump preventing it from draining and in doing so shutting the machine off as a safety action. I think you can actually access the pump from the rear of the machine. just unplug the machine, prepare to get wet, take the back of the machine off, take the lines off the pump and check for the blockage.

Washer stoped and did not finish rinse cycle now it makes a humming sound and code nd

Washer Error Codes ND IS -No Drain There could be two problems...The drain could be clogged, or the water pump could be bad. Or the belt that runs the pump is sliping or broken
  1. Unplug the washer from the electric outlet.
  2. 3Open the case, and disconnect the water hose from the outlet of the water pump.
  3. 4If you get water pouring out from the pump, then plug that up and check the hose to the sewer. If that is clogged, then you have found the problem.
  4. 5Some washers have a self cleaning filter in that hose somewhere. Check that to be sure it is working properly.
  5. 6Reassemble hose from step 3.
  6. 7Plug washer back in. If it pumps out now, then you are done. If it doesn't, then the water pump is probably defective, so replace it.
  7. 8Reassemble washing machine case...you're done...

My maytag washer mah-24 have a "nd" msg. which mean "not draining" and now i cannot open the door to take the clothes out. pls. help.

Unlocking the door:
Turn on the washer, but don't start any wash cycles. After a few minutes, the door should unlock itself.

Troubleshooting the "nd" message:
"nd" means "no drain". Empty the (now unlocked) washer and fill the wash tub with just enough water to see a bit of water at the bottom of the tub. Run a drain cycle and check a) if it drains and b) if there are any unusual noises while it is draining. If either event occurs during the drain cycle, the drain pump may have to be repaired/replaced.

Has 33 minutes and a error message of nd--maytag Neptune tl


What is the Model number of your machine if its a FAV6800A or FAV9800A please read on.

The ND error code means No Drain.

You could have a drain line clog or a stuck Pressure Switch contacts.

See this post for past troubleshooting;

http://www.fixya.com/support/t2209123-code_nd_fav6800aww_serial_number_10

There are links to the Service Manual and I go over how to put the machine in Service Mode to check that the Pressure Switch is signaling properly.

Do you want to DIY the repair?

Let me know.........Rich

My washer stops before the rinse cycle because it can't seem to drain enough to start the spin cycle. I just had the drain motor replaced one month ago. I get the error code nd. I can sto the cycle and...

I'd love to say yes! The machine is stopping because it will not drain. This is what the nd code means. Therefore, it will not rinse (add more water) or spin because the water level is already too high and to try to "spin it out" would put too much pressure on the machine with that much water in it. Drain out the water by putting the drain hose below the level of the washer (this takes forever) and call your repair man back!

Error "nd" trouble

Nd, means no drain... a blockage in the drain line from the tub. Access from the back panel, you can remove the hose from the machine and check for blockages... this would be on the tub side of the hose... take the hose loose from the machine and check for blockage at the tub. squeeze the hose to check for blockage within.
take the hose loose at the pump to check for blockage there as well... watch out for water ...be ready to mop... let me know how you do..

Washer wont rinse

we had the same problem with ours....nd means not draining and that means that there is something, probably coins stuck in your drain hose. pull the drain hose out and check it for change and make sure something isn't stuck.
