Kenmore 3.8 cu. ft. HE3 Front Load Washer Logo

Posted on Jun 28, 2017

I have a Kenmore HE3 110 42922200 washer. I have replaced the pump and motor about 2 months ago because it was not pumping all the water out so it would not go into the high speed spin cycle. After replacing the motor things worked for about 3 weeks and then the same problem came back. We have been able to use it on a slower spin cycle but today the clothing comes out rather wet. Is there anything else that could be causing the problem?

SOURCE: wet clothes at end of spin cycle

sounds like your transmission is not working properly. check your warranty information. (should be in your owners manual) many of the whirlpool made top loaders came with a 5 year warranty on the transmission/gear case

Open the lid of the washer and let it down gently to see if you hear a click when it closes. There is a lid switch that sometimes fails and prevents the washer from going into a spin cycle. If you don't hear the click when the lid closes, then you may need to have the lid switch replaced.

SOURCE: Kenmore front load washer will not spin. Clothes come out wet.

The clothes are wet after spinning When the clothes are wet at the end of a cycle, check these:

Motor coupler
Spin cycle
Siphoning
Water-inlet valve
Motor coupler To test the motor coupler, re-start the washer in its spin cycle. Let the machine run for a minute, and then open the lid and notice whether the tub is spinning: 

  • If it's spinning when you lift the lid, the coupler is fine.


  • If it isn't spinning--and your machine was produced by Whirlpool®--you may have a broken coupler. Many Whirlpool-made washers use a small, relatively inexpensive device called a motor coupling. This plastic-and-rubber component is mounted to the shaft of the motor on one side, and to the transmission on the other. Over time, the coupler wears out and fails. When that happens, you need to replace it completely.


Spin cycle If the washer doesn't reach its proper spin speed, the clothes may be too wet at the end of a cycle. Check to be sure the load is properly balanced and run a spin cycle again. If the clothes are still wet, you may have a worn or loose belt (Maytag®), a worn clutch (GE®/Hotpoint®), or a worn motor pulley or tub bearing. Replace the applicable component. 

Alternatively, there could be clothes caught between the inner and outer tubs. Read the "It spins but won't pump" section of the "It won't drain" section. Also, there could be other things that cause friction on the drive train. Seek the assistance of a qualified appliance repair technician.

Siphoning If the water that pumps from the machine goes right back into the machine after the spin cycle, it may be because your washer is siphoning the water from a laundry tub with a slow drain, back into the washer. Try to improve the draining of the laundry tub. (Is there something stuck in the drain?) Also, be sure the drain hose doesn't reach more than about 4 inches into the laundry tub. If it does, cut off the excess.

Water-inlet valve Water-inlet valves eventually fail. One problem that may develop with a water-inlet valve is that it can no longer completely shut off when the electricity is turned off to it. Then, the valve may leak and drip water into the clothes tub--you may notice that your washer has water in it when you haven't used it for a few days. To fix this, replace the valve.

SOURCE: CLOTHES STILL WET AFTER SPINNING

Is it pumping the water out?
If no, check the lid switch and the pump.
If yes, check the lid switch and the direct drive coupling on the motor.

Kenmore top-loading washing machine squeaks

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. Please check if there are any sucked small clothes, safety pin, lint or debris in the water pump. If the pump is fine then the squeaking sound may be due to gear dogs in the agitator or bad gear case. The washer will spin and agitate at the same time. If the washer is still under warranty then do not try to open, repair or replace any part to void the warranty.

Please do rate the solution and revert for further assistance.


Thanks

Washer will not spin or agitate

This is a bad coupling, part # 285753. It is available from timerking.com for $9.99, and other places as well. To replace unplug and lay the machine down on its back, remove the 2 pump clips, and slide the pump out of the way. Then remove the 2 motor clips and remove the motor. The coupling is between the motor and gearcase. Hope this helps!

Washing machine leakes some where frome the bottom of washer

It sounds like you pump is leaking. This happens most of the time( if its a kenmore or whilpool)lean your washer back and then you will see the pump on the end of the motor. it is held on by 2 clips and then you can take it off (after pulling iff the 2 water hoses) Look at where the motor shaft goes onto the pump if its leaking there will be a water streak. Replace the pump... leak is fixed

Leaks

to jim, you may want to check the water pump closer, sometimes the water pump will leak a little during a cycle and the water will leak somewhere on the floor, not necessarily near the water pump.
to the second post (guest), it sounds like you have a bad water valve. the valve is not closing properly and causing water to leak thru.

HE3 washer not drying the cloths

I had this problem a few months ago and it turned out to be a bad water pump; I replaced it myself and it was incredibly easy. The hardest part was removing the front panel, below the door because the screws are under a lip, about half an inch off the ground. When you get it off, the pump mechanism will be right in front of you. The pump is on the right side of the mechanism and is screwed into the plastic part. When I removed it, the impeller (a small, ribbed plastic part that spins and moves the water) was broken off from the motor. You can buy the whole pump mechanism from Sears for about $100 and install it yourself. Just follow the directions that come with it!!! Hope this helps.

Kenmore Heavy Duty 70 Series Model 110 water leak

It sounds like you have a leaking pump. The pump is easy to replace:
#1 Use a shop vac and pull all the water out of the drain line. This will keep you from having to clean up about 1 gallon of water off of the floor.
#2 Lift the front of the machine enough for you to get under and see.the pump just inside the front of the washer.
#3 Lift the 2 retaining clips off of the pump. This will allow you to pull the pump off of the motor.
#4 Remove the 2 clamps off of the hoses.
#5 Install the new pump into the hoses, and reinstall the clamps.
#6 With the retaining clips installed into the motor housing, install the pump.
#7 Attach the retaining clips, and set the washer back on the ground.

You have now replaced the washer pump.
