Amana Washing Machines - Page 7 - Recent Questions, Troubleshooting & Support

Hello, Robin - If yours is a high-efficiency model of Amana washing machine, I have see posts on other websites regarding the inability to soak clothes in high efficiency washers (many makers and models) for longer than 10 minutes. I suggest you contact Amana Customer Service with your complaint. This is the link to the Amana Appliances Contact Us web page: https://amana.com/custserv/contact.jsp Best wishes.

replace the tub support rods the air dampeners at the bottom have failed

ND is for "no drain" check for plugged up drain line or filter.

Unplug the Amana washing machine from the wall outlet, and open the lid. Pull the liquid fabric softener dispenser straight off of the top of the agitator. Some Maytag washers require the use of a flat head screwdriver inserted between the dispenser and the top of the agitator. Twist the handle of the screwdriver to pop the dispenser off of the agitator.

Remove the barrier cap inside the agitator using your hands. Pull the barrier cap straight out of the agitator. There is an O-ring that attaches to the outside of the barrier cap. If it did not come out with the cap, pull the O-ring out of the center of the agitator.

Remove the bolt securing the agitator to the drive bell with the socket wrench. The bolt is inside the center of the agitator.

Place your fingers in between the bottom of the agitator and the tub. Lift straight up to remove the agitator from the tub. Keep your head out of the way in case the agitator is stuck and unexpectedly releases. If necessary, use agitator hooks. Insert them under the agitator and push down on the hooks to release the agitator.

The door is open. Be sure that the door is completely closed.
