Most washing machines have a sixth sense for timing. They’ll run perfectly for years, then choose the exact moment you need clean clothes to stop draining and sit there full of water like they’re thinking things over.
If your washing machine won’t empty, don’t panic — it’s usually a common fault and very often repairable.
Common Reasons Your Washer Isn’t Draining
A blocked filter filled with coins, buttons, or the odd mystery item
A tired or faulty drain pump
A kinked or blocked drain hose
A sensor or electrical fault stopping the cycle from finishing
Sometimes a quick filter clean will do the trick. Other times, the machine needs a proper diagnosis to avoid leaks, repeat breakdowns, or a very soggy kitchen floor.
