How to drain the water from the washing machine yourself

If a washing machine broke and does not drainshowing the corresponding error code (F5 for Indesit, 5E, E2 or 5C for Samsung, E18, F18 or d02 for Bosch, etc.), the plums are made by hand.Before you drain the water from the washing machine, unplug it and turn on the water tap.

This drain is carried out through the following structural elements:

• emergency hose;
• drain hose;
• drain filter;
• Luke;
• drain pipe.

Emergency hose

Most washing machines have a special emergency drain hose hidden behind the door of a small hatch in front of the device. To drain water through it, you need to do the following:

1. Pull out the hose.
2. Pull the cork out of the hose and pour water into the substituted container. It has a small diameter, so the process is long.

Drain hose

The fastest liquid is removed through drain hose, for which act like this:

1. Separate the hose from the back of the device.
2. Take it out of the sewer if it is lowered there.
3. The entire hose is placed below the tank and lowered its end into the bucket.

When done correctly, the water is drainedalmost without your participation. This method is not applicable to models whose drain hose is equipped with a loop to prevent leakage. This part of the design is usually prescribed in the documentation for the device.

Drain filter

Drain filter protects the pump from foreign objects getting stuck in it. To drain the water through the filter you need this method:

1. Front open the door or remove the panel.
2. Tilt the car body back.
3. Support the device against the wall or hold it so that you can substitute a container for it.
4. The filter is turned counterclockwise, but not to the very end.
5. Carry out the removal of water.

The drain must be attentive: with this method there may be a lot of water on the floor.

Luke

Scooping through the hatch (if it is not blocked) is another solution to the problem of how to drain the water from the washing machine. It is made this way:

1. Tilt the device so that water does not spill out when opening.
2. Open the hatch and scoop.

The process is long and will not allow to get rid of all the water.

Drain pipe

If the drain filter is not removed or when it is removed, the water does not flow, then the corrugated pipe under the drum is clogged.

In this case, you should perform the following steps:

1. Remove the back of the machine.
2. Place a container or dry cloth under the nozzle.
3. Remove the cochlea connecting the nozzle and the pump.
4. Detach the nipple.
5. If the water does not flow, carefully clean the blockage with your fingers.
6. Drain the water.

Additionally

Having got rid of water, spend test run. If the device does not function normally, you need to understand the cause of the breakdown.

It is necessary to check whether the pump impeller located behind the filter rotates freely and remove foreign objects that prevent it, if any.. Next, set the spin mode and shine into the hole of the filter with a flashlight. If the impeller still does not rotate, then it is required replace drain pump. To do this, remove the drain assembly, detach from it the old drain pump and wires. New pump put in place of the old and attached to her wire.

In addition, the cause of the problem could be a software failure or could break electronic module.

In the first case, the machine with drained water must be dried for some time, and then restarted. In the second you need to solder the tracks or replace the relays and triacs responsible for the work of the drain mechanism. In some situations, you have to change the module.
