Replacing one of these washer parts may fix your problem.
When a washer motor is defective, the spin basket may experience erratic spinning or fail to spin altogether, leading to water not draining from the tub. Additionally, unusual sounds during the spin cycle, such as squealing or grinding, might be present. Over time, a faulty motor may overheat, resulting in a burning odor or visible signs of damage to the motor and surrounding areas.
When the washer is not draining, it may be due to a malfunctioning electronic control board. Responsible for managing the drain pump and other critical functions, a faulty control board can impede the draining process. Other problems may also be present with a faulty control board, such as error codes or a burning smell, or the washer may not start or fill.
If the door lock in a washer is jammed, you may encounter difficulty in opening or closing the washer door. The door may not latch properly, preventing the washer from starting or completing a wash cycle. With a door lock problem, an error code might be displayed or the door lock indicator light may fail to illuminate. During operation, the door lock may make unusual clicking sounds or fail to engage, preventing the washer from starting. You might also notice water remaining in the drum after the wash cycle has finished, indicating a potential problem with the door lock assembly preventing proper drainage.
While most not draining problems are resolved by replacing the motor, electronic control board or door lock assembly, there could be other potential failures. Thorough troubleshooting and an accurate diagnosis are key to understanding the cost of the repair and fixing the problem.
If a washer isn't draining, there could be various reasons behind it.

Standing water in a washer fosters musty smells and soaks clothes. Clogged drains or weak pumps often cause this soggy end. Rather than wringing items by hand, enlist washer repair service. A clear drain cycle keeps each load fresh and simple.
