This is my first post here so don't let my username fool you. My husband is gone for the week and I have a problem with my washer. We have a 2003 Frigidare Washer that came with our home. Little did I know, this has been going on all weekend but it wasn't until my husband left that I found out about the problem. Figures, lol. Murphy's law. I look inside the tub and the water won't drain. I left the lid open and looked inside while I put it on spin and noticed the tub isn't spinning very fast and there is a lot of water coming out from the bottom of the washer.

Here are my questions. I hope you can help me. I want to open the front or side panel of this washer to see if something is clogged somewhere. This happened in a previous washer where an article got stuck in the drain pump. Perhaps this is happening to this one. I don't know how to remove the panels. Can you give me a step by step guide? If you don't think this is the problem, what do you think could be the problem?

I don't intend to call a repairman to come out. Since we did buy it with the house, I would prefer to replace it rather than spend money on it when it could break down again. However, I'd rather not buy a new one since it's SOOO expensive right now.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

I am having the EXACT same problem with my Frigidaire Washer. Can you tell me if you found the problem, and how you fixed it? We had to purchase a new dishwasher, dryer, and brakes for my car this month, and I really don't want to add a new washer to the list! Thanks!
