The drain is likely clogged. Take a shop vac to the drain on the exterior of the home. Hopefully this will clear the drain line.

Your drain is clogged. Every time it defrosts the water from the defrost should drain out to a catch basin under the ice box. That drain is clogged. You need to access the drain and clear it.

If your washer does not drain you need to check this parts.

1. Inspect the drain hose for kinks
2. Test the timer control
3. Test the lid switch(some models)
4. Inspect the water pump
5. Inspect the drive belt(belt drive only)
6. Inspect the motor coupler

The drain hose could be stuck too far down the drain pipe allowing it to siphon the water out.Also if it seals too tight into the drain pipe it will siphon the water out.

Check the drain hose and the drain line, if you do not find any obstruction clogging the drain lain, then test the drain pump and the drain pump solenoid.

sounds the like the water valves need to be replace or you have a hole in the water line. have a technician look at it.

You have too much of the drain hose inside the drain line causing the water to siphen out as its coming in. Pull some of the drain hose out and secure the hose. There should only be about 8 inches or so of the hose inside the pipe.

My suggestion is to NOT pull the plug on the drain that should be covered with a sign that says...do not remove plug. Water is supposed to be kept in the pan. The interior wheel then helps the water keep the condenser cool....Ron
