I have a 2 year old Maytag washer that partially fills with water then drains. Never gets to the wash cycle. Spoke with Maytag appliance support and I was told that the drain hose is too far down the pvc drain pipe. Can this be true? Sounds like a load of crap.

Please Help

Thanks,

RB

It isn't crap. The water will just siphon if the hose is either too far into the stand pipe, or if there is an air-tight seal around it.

Thanks man. That worked!! Thought that the pump would have to drain the water out of the washer. Didn't realize that it would siphon that easy.

Thanks again for your help.
