How to Fix Amana Washer Error LD

Error Code: LD Difficulty: Hard

Problem: Long Drain Time

How to Fix LD Error (Step-by-Step)

1. Unplug the washer from the power outlet to prevent any electrical accidents.
2. Place towels and a shallow pan around the base of the washer to catch water.
3. Carefully tilt the washer forward, resting it securely against a wall to access the drain pump, usually located at the bottom rear.
4. Squeeze the clamp on the drain hose connected to the pump and slide it off, directing the hose into the pan to drain remaining water.
5. Inspect the pump inlet and the drain hose for any obstructions like socks, lint, or other small items and remove them.
6. If the hose is clear and the pump impeller doesn’t turn freely, the drain pump motor is likely faulty.
7. To replace it, disconnect the wire harness, remove the mounting screws, install the new pump, and reconnect all hoses and wires before carefully setting the washer upright.
8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
