Spin cycle slow unless hose lowered

does it pump out all the water when it spins the first time? when they spin slow sometimes the pump is not pumping out all the water causing it to spin slow.

There is a coupling between the motor and the pump and this has finally worn out... on some models the pump is belt driven and the belt could be bad... on some models the pump is seperate from the drive motor and has its own motor just for the pump...this could be running but the pump part could be bad...nearly all machines will allow the water to drain out if you just lower the drain hose lower than the tub...try letting the water drain into a small bucket and then see if it wil spin...it should spin once the water is drained out but you will have to keep the drain hose in the bucket lower than the tub through the spin cycle....this should work and allow you to get all the water out of your machine....dont use it any more....get it repaired by a washing machine maintenance person

could be your pump has stopped working, or a blockage first check that your stanpipe is clear, get a bucket and put outlet hose end in if it drains into bucket then it is a plumbing problem not the machine.

check the tub to pump and pump to drain for blockages of debris,the pump should drain the bulk of the water,then it should spin out the rest unless the belt is that glazed,get to the spin cycle and pull out the washer drain hose out of the house drain stand pipe and see how much force water is while being pumped out while just pumping and not spinning,there should be the water stream the size of the inside of the drain hose and good velocity of water flow to the drain

Check the pump, there might be something stuck inside

Probably needs the filter cleaning.
Remove lower rear panel.
Remove large black hose onto drum.
Remove and clean filter inside hose.
Remove hose onto pump, and check for obstruction here and in the pump itself.
Please rate my solution.
Thanks.

Remove the hose from the drain and lower the hose to a floor drain or a large bucket. If water flows, there is a failure with the pump. If no water flows there is an obstruction, such as a sock lodged in the drain path from tub to pump. Either condition will require some disassembly to repair.

hers as close as i can get if you can pull the front panel thats the best way to go if not go from the back the error code is for a slow drain and the sound is proably something jamming your drain pump slowing the drain pump if you have a shop vac this is time to vacuum the water of the tub and all the way down the drain hole for the next stage usally i tell customers to remove the drain hose from the stand pipe and vacuum the water out of the washer from the drain hose but because of the pillow this might not work in your case. Now remove the two screws on the front lower panel and pull the panel
in side you will see the drain pump if you did not have a shop vac go to the auto parts store and buy a pair of radiator hose clamps and clamp the hose line as close to the washer as possible.(but put down some towels as water always stays there) then pull the tub to pump hose by depressing the squeeze clamp(now while your at the auto parts id get a screw clamp to replace the spring clamp it makes putting the hose back on a lot easier)pull the hose off.Then pull the pump to drain hose off .Remove the two 5/16 in screws securing the pump to the washer base.Unplug the connector and remove the pump inspect the pump for foreign objects,broken or stripped impeller blades . if the impeller are stripped you will have to replace the pump then form the front of the washer take a piece of water hose with one end cut off and run it down the pump to drain end of the drain and reassemble the unit

Plug off the mains. First drain out all your water by lowering the exit hose into a bucket or drain. You have to look for screws below the front kick-panel, the panel comes down & out. The pump is on the right side. Be prepared for dirty water. Inside the big flexible tube (coming from the tub bottom) is the filter, be prepared to find all sorts of junk here, clean out. Examine your pump also, clean out the impeller. Carefully refit all. Your machine would be fine. Don’t wait for the machine to jam to look into your filter.

Is there still water in the machine or have you bailed it out? Some units have a serviceable water pump, meaning you can take the bottom of the pump off and clear gunk that has plugged it up. When you manually turn the dial to spin cycle, does it spin and push any water out even a tiny amount at a time? If not, take a large bucket and then place it on the floor next to the machine and place the drain hose in it. The bucket needs to be lower than the water level in the machine. When you do this, does it drain? If so this would solve the issue of whether or not the pipes are plugged. If in both cases either on spin or with the hose lower than water level, if it only drains a tiny stream then you do have a plugged line and you would need to disconnect the hoses from the pump under the machine and clear the plug. Be prepared for a lot of water to come out when you take the hose off of the pump. The plug is most likely in the hose coming out the bottom of the tank going to the water pump. This item has the hose leaving the machine going to the house drain. The other large hose goes up to the bottom of the tank. Good luck and let me know if you need more help.
