What to do if my Whirlpool Washer is not draining/spinning and loads are still wet?
If your Whirlpool washer isn't draining or spinning, and your clothes are still wet, consider these possibilities: * The drain hose extends too far into the standpipe. Check the drain hose installation to ensure it's correct. * The drain hose is clogged or too high.
