Whirlpool Washer Removal/Repair

[HobieBaxter]

So- the Whirlpool washer in our 33.2 quit draining halfway through our fall trip. I’m trying to decide whether to leave it till we return home in 4 weeks or trying to repair it on the road. Accessing the washer’s back panel involves removing the dryer mounted on top of the washer and removing the floor mounts. It looks fairly straight forward, but looks can be deceiving. Has anyone experience removing the washer from a Palazzo and- has anyone experienced a similar issue with their washer. Machine runs through all the cycles just fine, it just won’t drain and gives an A 10 error code signifying a blockage in the drain hose. The back panel can be accessed via an access panel located in the closet, but not enough to really troubleshoot an issue with the drain hose, much less the pump. Thanks in advance for any suggestions/comments.

Maybe try to see if drain filter is plugged. The link is for 2008 service manual, but machine looks very similar to ours. You can remove lower panel to access filter, see page 4-9 and 4-14

I havennt Downloaded the service manual for my model yet, but this looks very similar and the drain filter appears to be accessible from the front panel. Much thanks!

As you suggested- pulled the drain filter from the front panel and a dogs poop bag had clogged the drain. Must have left it in one of our pockets. Once removed, washer has operated w/out issue.
