    How to Fix Amana Washer Error UL

    Error Code: UL Difficulty: Hard

    Problem: Unbalanced Load

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

    1. Unplug the washer from the power outlet for safety and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
    2. Open the washer lid and redistribute the clothes evenly around the wash plate. Avoid washing single, heavy items by themselves.
    3. Close the lid and plug the washer back in. Try running a spin cycle. If the error persists, proceed to the next step.
    4. To inspect the suspension, you will need to lift the top panel of the washer. Use a putty knife to release the two clips on the front edge.
    5. With the top panel lifted, you can see the four suspension rods, one at each corner of the tub. Check if any of the rods appear broken or disconnected. Gently press down on the tub to see if it bounces excessively, which indicates weak suspension.
    6. To replace a suspension rod, lift the rod up from the tub bracket, then disconnect it from the top support cup. Install the new rod by reversing these steps.
    7. If the suspension rods are intact, the issue may be with the drive hub or gearcase, which typically requires a professional service.
    8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

    How to Fix Amana Washer Error DRN

    Error Code: DRN Difficulty: Moderate

    Problem: Drain Error

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

    1. First, check the drain hose at the back of the washer. Ensure it is not kinked, bent, or clogged.
    2. Make sure the drain hose is not inserted too far into the standpipe; it should only be about 4-5 inches in.
    3. Unplug the washer. You will need to access the drain pump, which is usually located behind a removable front panel at the bottom of the machine.
    4. Place a shallow pan and towels under the pump area to catch residual water. Slowly unscrew the pump’s filter cap to drain the remaining water.
    5. Clean the filter of any debris, such as lint, coins, or small clothing items.
