Washer Won’t Spin and Drain – Thornton
If your washer fills with water but won’t drain or spin, your laundry ends up soaked and unfinished. This is one of the most common and frustrating problems for homeowners in Thornton, and at Tonny’s Appliance Repair, we fix it fast-on the first visit when possible.
Why Your Washer Stops Spinning and Draining
Drainage and spinning are connected—if the washer can’t drain, it won’t spin, and vice versa.
Most common causes:
-
-
Clogged or jammed drain pump
-
Blocked drain hose
-
Faulty lid switch or door lock
-
Worn or broken drive belt
-
Failed drain pump motor
-
Bad control board or timer
-
Unbalanced load triggering stop
-
Coin, sock, or lint blocking filter
-
Fixing the issue early prevents motor damage, water backup, or costly water leaks.
