Hi and welcome to FixYa, I am Kelly. "Ld" (Washer is taking too long to drain water from the wash tub) Check the following: Is the drain hose kinked or clogged? Is the drain hose installed properly? See "Connect the Drain Hose," page 2-5. Press Is the drain hose clogged, or the end of the drain hose more than 96? (244 cm) above the floor? a) Loosen the clamps and pull the inlet and outlet drain hoses off the pump. Note that there is a tab on the outlet connector that fits into a slot in the hose. b) Remove the three 5/16? hex-head screws from the drain pump and remove -Disconnect the wire connector from the drain pump terminals. - Set the ohmmeter to the R x 1 scale. - Touch the ohmmeter test leads to each of the drain pump terminals. The meter Long Drain Ld flashes when the water level does not change after the drain pump is on. • Is the drain hose or the drain pump clogged? • Is the drain hose height greater than 96? ? • Is the pressure hose connection from the tub to the machine/motor control pinched or plugged? TEST #7 Drain/Recirculation Perform the following checks if washer fails to drain or recirculate. 1. See Activation of Manual Diagnostic Test Mode, and perform the Manual: Pumps test. 2. Remove the console to access the machine/ motor control assembly. See Accessing & Removing the Electronic Assemblies. 3. Visually check that the P4 connector is inserted all the way into the machine/motor control. If visual check passes, go to step 4. If visual check fails, reconnect P4 and repeat step 1. 4. Remove connector P4 from the machine/ motor control and check resistance values of pump motor windings. Resistance values should match those shown in wiring diagram, page 7-1. If resistance values are good, go to step 7. If winding measurements are much higher (tens of ohms to infinity) than shown in wiring diagram, a problem exists in the motor winding or in the connection between the machine/motor control and the motor. Go to step 5. 5. Tilt machine forward to access the bottom of the machine and the pumps. See take measurements across pump terminals. Measurements should be as shown in the wiring diagram. If winding measurements are much higher (tens of ohms to infinity) than shown in wiring diagram, replace the pump motor. If the resistance at the pump motor is correct, there is an open circuit in the wiring between the motor and the machine/ motor control. Repair or replace the lower wiring harness. If the pump motor windings and machine/ motor control check OK, repair or replace the pump. Be sure to check the pump and tub sump for foreign objects before replacing pump. 7. See Activation of Manual Diagnostic Test Mode, and perform the Manual: Pumps test. 8. If the Manual: Pumps test failed, then the machine/motor control has failed: Unplug the washer or disconnect power.Replace the machine/motor control assembly.
My response is very long and will be in 2 parts this is PART 1
Here is what the service manual says about Ld:
PAUSE/CANCEL to clear display
Also:
See "Drain System," page 2-3.
6. To remove the drain pump: (there are 2 pumps... the drain pump is on the left)
the pump from the tub.
Check the pump inlet and the tub outlet for obstructions.
Pump electrical winding resistance test:
should indicate between 10.5 and 14 ?.
----Due to the design of the machine the 2 wires going to the drain pump have be notorous for backing out of the plastic connector. Check the connector of the pump for loose terminal connections. --
From the Ld troubleshooting steps / procedure:
• Is the pump running? If not, see TEST #7.
TEST 7
Figure 1, page 6-13.
6. Check the resistance at the pump motor. Remove the connector at the motor and
Perform the Manual: Pump test.
Here is part 2 ACTIVATION OF AUTOMATIC DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE 1. Be sure the washer is in standby mode (plugged in with all indicators off, or with only the Clean indicator on). 2. Select any one button (except POWER, START, and PAUSE/CANCEL) and follow the steps below, using the same button Press/hold for 3 seconds / Release for 3 seconds / Press/hold 3 seconds / Release for 3 seconds / Press/hold 3 seconds If this test mode has been entered successfully, all indicators on the console are illuminated for 5 seconds with 88 showing in the Estimated Time Remaining two-digit display. If indicators do not display as described above, the press/hold/release procedure above may not have been performed within the time frame necessary for successful entry. Repeat step 2 to ensure this was not the cause. If still unsuccessful, see Diagnostic: Unsuccessful Entry. 3. The program then checks for saved fault codes: If there are saved fault codes, see Diagnostic: Saved Fault Codes. If there are no saved fault codes, all indicators on the console will momentarily turn off, then turn back on with 88 displayed. After 5 seconds, the Automatic test begins. DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODE 1. Carefully read and perform steps 1 and 2 under Activation of Automatic Diagnostic Test Mode, and press the same button once during the 5 second display time of the 88. NOTE: If the button is not pressed within 5 seconds, the Automatic test will start (after saved fault codes). 2. If done successfully, a single beep occurs and the two-digit display shows the control ID# for 3 seconds, then displays 00 and the Add A Garment indicator LED flashes. See Diagnostic: Manual. DIAGNOSTIC: Manual Assumes Manual Diagnostic mode has been entered, two-digit display shows 00, and ADD A GARMENT indicator LED is flashing. NOTE: If there is no activity (button press, cycle select) within 5 minutes, the control automatically exits Diagnostic mode and enters standby mode. Manual: Pumps •Select CLEAN WASHER or SPIN ONLY. Press and release: START Turns on recirculation pump, cycle indicator is steady on. Repeat Turns off recirculation pump, indicator is steady on. Repeat Turns on drain pump, indicator flashes. Repeat Turns off drain pump, indicator is
(remember the button)
ACTIVATION OF MANUAL
steady on.
That is everything pump related from the service book and personal experience.
