Won't drain - no pumping sounds at all

Our Speed Queen Heavy Duty Washer will not drain - no sounds of pumping action at all. Can we fix this ourselves? I do not know how old it is as it was given to us about 4 years ago. Thanks in advance!

    That's correct - fills, agitates (though makes a horrible sound - and has for the whole time we've had it), spins.  No sound or movement at the times when it should be emptying.

    Does everything else function and it just won't drain?

If agitates an does not spin means is not going to drain, cause for not spinning broken door switch, look an see if you can feel it hanging or loose, if the swtich is broken it will not go into spin mode at all...........door switch is a safety device!

WASHER VERY LOUD AFTER I REPLACED DIRECT DRIVE PUMP

No... I work speed queen all day long and I know they can be loud. Just double check and make sure the washer is sitting level. But other than that speed queen washers and dryers are just very heavy duty work horses.

28+ year old- Speed Queen Heavy Duty top loader

It sound like you drain hose is siphoning off the rinse water, It needs a standpipe make sure the drain hose is at about the height of the top of the washer, Make sure the drain hose isnt stuck in the drain it also needs an air cap. the drain hose should not lay on the floor to run to the drain

Please let me know if this doesnt solve your problems

Draining water from inside through center.

The tub seal kit is $85 USD, You will also need a drive bell kit$23 USD, you should replace the upper bearing $?, for a complete rebuilt I would also replace the brake pads all three, and the belt, maybe the pump if it doesnt come off easily. Plus what you break taking it apart, so we are looking @ least $150.

Yes you can do it yourself, you dont need the tub wrench if you can borrow a deep socket, its the drive bell seal tool you really need.

Please let me know if you have additional questions. the serial number will tell you the age first two digits are year next two are month, starts with and R, built in Ripon WI.
