My Frigidaire washer, model fwtb69rgs0, runs, but does not drain water. Nor, does it fill with water if there is water standing in it. I did take the drain hose out of the wall, which the drain pipe is about 3 feet high, and when I put the hose in a bucket it drains, and also runs fine. What is the problem?

Thanks for any help!

Sounds like you are creating a siphon with the drain hose. Raise the drain pipe at least another 1.5 feet and see if that cures things.
