Whirlpool Duet front loader won't drain and gives no repair code. Washer shuts down as if load is finished but there is still water in tub. Took out filter and found 2 coins. Took out half of wet load and tried again. Less water left than before, but still about an inch.:eek:

Thank you, Libertyappl, so much for replying so quickly.

As instructed, I pushed the Control On button. I did not push the Hold to Start button.

Then I selected Drain/Spin and No Spin.

Then I pushed the Rinse/Hold button 4 times within 5 seconds.

The washer cycled from C:00 through C:08 (01, 02, 03, 04, 05 ,06 , 07 , 08) and then went to Cycle Complete. There was no water left in the tub although there had been a little bit (about 1/4 cup) in the tub when I started the procedure.

Now, what does this mean? :cool:

I forgot to say initially that when I was going through the cleaning out the drain procedure, I unplugged the washer and tried to catch all the water that poured out. I did not turn off the hot and cold water valves as the washer was already unplugged, but when I went to check it the next day, the tub was completely full of water. It never gets this full in use; it looked like a top loader instead of a front loader and filled up my huge wet/dry vac. almost three times. Needless to say, the water has been turned off since then. I turned it on for the test and then turned it off again. Is that something that should always be done when the washer is unplugged?:confused:

Thanks, Nat. I'm going to look up the instructions for replacing a water valve, and if they look like something I might be able to do, I'll order the part. Thanks so much for taking the time to help me out with this problem.:D

Check your pup for an obstruction, we've seen socks, underwear and all sorts of things get into the pumps which could cause this problem.
