Washer Fills and Drains But Won’t Wash – Wheat Ridge

If your washer fills with water, then drains-but your clothes don’t get cleaned-it’s likely that the wash cycle isn’t engaging. At Tonny’s Appliance Repair, we help Wheat Ridge homes repair washing machines that won’t clean, even though they appear to be working normally.

Why Your Washer Isn’t Washing

Even if your washer fills and drains correctly, internal failures or mechanical problems can prevent the drum from moving during the wash cycle.

 Most common causes:

• • Worn or broken motor coupler

  • Failed agitator or wash plate

  • Drive belt snapped or slipping

  • Faulty transmission or clutch

  • Washer motor not engaging

  • Control board or timer not advancing

  • Lid switch or door lock malfunction

  • Stuck or damaged motor relay

Signs of a Non-Washing Washer

• • • Water fills and empties, but clothes come out unchanged

    • Drum doesn’t move during wash cycle

    • No sloshing or agitation sound

    • Washer just sits silently between fill and drain

    • Error codes or flashing lights, no actual washing

    • Can spin and drain but skips wash entirely
