My washing machine has been in storage for 2 years. It worked perfectly before. Now it does not want to drain water. What should I do? It is a LG WF-T8018TP Fuzzy Logic

Your washing machine could of had now died on you guys and is not working anymore.It would be cheaper just to buy a new washing machine than to repair the washing machine that is 10 years old now. The drain hose might be clogged or kinked or lid switch or the belt is not working in your washing machine.

The first thing I'd check is the water pump if the timer's working ok...

you may have a kinked drain hose so the water cannot drain out properly. or if you have the drain hose plumbed into your sink u bend the hole in the spigot may not be opened up large enough.

Hi,
When ever you are keeping the machine ideal for two years the machine may get rusted because once you start using the machine the dust will started to deposit at the bottom of the drum.
you may put some oil or grease over the mechanism and check even after doing that also if you find the same problem means you have change the inner bearings

HI, check the following to address this issue.

1. Clogged drain line or water pump
Check to see if there's something stuck inside the pump or the drain hose connected to the pump (pump is usually located at the bottom and towards the back of the washing machine).

2. Water Pump
If the drain line isn't clogged, you may have a problem with the water pump such as a frozen pulley or a broken impeller. If that's the case replace the water pump. Note: if you have a belt driven washer, check the belt(s) for cracks, as this would be a perfect time to replace the belt(s) if needed.

**The most common issue will be an obstructed hose or, line

Remove the dispenser drawer by pushing down on the tab at the center back and pulling drawer out. Now, remove the top of the fabric softener compartment and the parts of the soap dispenser and clean them all out. An old toothbrush often helps. Reassemble and replace. They should siphon out now.

Check the motor at the bottom of the machine. Also check the timer on the unit to make sure the timer is work

YOU NEED TO CHECK THE WATER PUMP,SO LAY THE MACHINE ALL THE WAY DOWN ON ITS FRONT,NOW YOU HAVE ACCESS TO THE PUMP.Remove any debris that may be lodged inside of it.
