    have you pulled off the front cover at bottom and see a white pump? if you open that there is a "lint trap" like thing in there and needs to be cleaned out then it will work fine, i have had to do it 2 times now.

    more detail, the white pump has a approx. 3" thing you can unscrew and it pulls out and there is probably so much lint in there that it wont drain anymore. when it tries to drain it just sucks the lint in there and can no longer drain the water, it will be fine once you do the above but watch out you will have to turn power off and back on and put it in rinse and spin mode and hold rinse button till it shuts off and it might drain, other wise be prepared when you unscrew the white thing cuz it is full of water, get a big shallow container and be prepared to move quick so you dont get water everywhere. Hope this helps. best of luck

    if that does not do it then take hose off back and see if it is clogged. you can put your hand on the big rubber thing that goes from pump to drum under neath and inside and you can squeeze it several times while it is trying to pump out water and some times it helps to drain it.sorry i wish i knew the technical terms for these parts.LOL.

Why would a whirlpool duet sport model number WFW8300SW05 starts fine stops during cycle. No error codes door locked red light on water in machine.

you have a plugged or partial plugged drain pump for sure. maybe there is a 20 stuck in it this time! easy to find just follow the drain hose back and you will find your pump.
also could be the cycle your using has a bad area in timing cct. check a different cycle like the delicate cycle and that will confirm pump or cycle

Won't drain (or spin)

It may be as simple as a clogged drain pipe. The sludge from the solid waste grinders in a lot of the new washers will coat and clog the tube.

My whirlpool washer agitates but will not pump out the water. I thought the timer switch assembly was bad so I replaced it. Still no water pump. I can not find the Model Number tag on the washer...

Drain Pump Sometimes, small objects or articles of clothing can get caught in the drain pump. To determine if anything is blocking the drain pump, remove the drain pump and check the pump for obstructions. If the drain pump is clear of obstructions, but is still noisy during the drain cycle, replace the drain pump.
