Kenmore washer won't drain

diggitydog

Hello All,

I have an older Kenmore Heavy Duty 80 Series washer (110.82980120) that will no longer drain. It goes through the wash cycle, but just sits for hours when it hits the drain cycle. If I go to the spin cycle, it will spin but again stalls when it hits the drain cycle.

I pulled the output hose, and it does drain by gravity. The hose is free and clear, and the output does not seem to be blocked/clogged.

What are the possible causes of this? Is it a doable repair for a semi-handy person such as myself?

Thanks in advance!

Check and see if the washer will spin when it is empty.

If it will spin then the motor is good and the pump will have to be replace.

The motor reverses to drain the washer and spin.

The part number for the pump is 3349322.

Here is a good place to get appliance parts.
