Thanks for the video! It worked!
One tip for whoever decides to do this repair from the front:
The top clamp is tough to get to because of the orientation of the ends. You can grab the hose clamp/hose and rotate slightly to orientate the clamp ends in an optimal position to clamp and remove.
Great tip!👍😊
Thank you for your video! I fixed my washer by myself and am feeling very empowered!
Wonderful!😊😊😊
Thanks for the video, ran into this same problem right as a guest (who my wife had to spend 20 minutes reassuring days earlier that we had a washer and she could wash clothes here) arrived from out of town. Needless to say she was less than thrilled but thanks to your video, i got it fixed asap.
Nice job Matt😊👍
Thank you so much! It worked on my Elite Kenmore HE front loader!!
Excellent,
Thank you 😊
Can’t Thank you enough!! Had a comforter & 2 light covers sitting in my washing machine for hours..now I’m back on the road again!’
Awesome,
Thanks Cynthia😊
Awesome video! Had the same issue and this fixed it. Ended up taking the pump and hose out completely. Was completely filled with dirt and sludge.
Nice job Alfredo
It worked for me, thank you!!!
Very good👍
Super helpful. Fixed the issue quickly.
Thank you so much!!! Just fixed my washer machine and still trying to figure out of a sock got in the drain?!?! I will be cleaning the drain at least once a year this time! 😂
Nice job Maya😊❤️👍

Thanks Nick👍
Thanks for the video. Hubby saved a $400 call out and found about $2.50. Washer back to perfect working order.
That is excellent news😊😊😊
Found about $3.50 in that trap along with a huge ball of lint etc. After cleaning it worked better than ever. Will have to do that onc3 in awhile. Thanks I appreciate your video
Great job Scott😊👍
Thank you for this video. It saved us a call to the repairman!

It worked for me. Just cleaned the drain plug. It was clogged. It was alot of water though like about half a gallon or more.
I'm gonna try mine tomorrow... Hopefully it will fix it
Please let us know how it goes👍
Thanks for this!
My pleasure!😊😊😊
Worked great, thanks for this!!
You're welcome!😊
Outstanding RUclips DIY video!!!🙌
Excellent step by step explanation, with many helpful insights!
Scott's tone really helped one semi-stressed DIY'er attempt & execute the project!! 👏👏👏
Thanks so much Jose😊😊😊
Great video Scott. Thanks for the great job! I have a question.
You mentioned removing the ball and that it was for efficiency. But my understanding is that the ball is a check valve designed to prevent water from the pump flowing back into the tub when the pump is running. I always subscribe to the less-is-more theory with anything mechanical, except when something is there to prevent a problem.
So, my question is: have you had any issues with tubs not draining completely and increased mildew smell due to increased standing water in the tub after the ball has been removed? BTW, I have mine apart right now, so would love to get your answer before I put it all back together :)
Thanks in advance!
Great question,
I would leave it out.
Most other brands have the same set up but don’t use the ball.
It just creates trouble when it gets stuck👍
Very helpful thank you
You’re very welcome😊
Thank God for you, you really opened my eyes to fixed the machine, but still having the same issue even with the ball removal and the pump is pumping.i just don't get it
I wonder if there’s something caught right where the drain tube connects to the drain pump?
Might be the water pressure air trap.
My washer did the same and I already removed that ball and cleaned all the hoses but I still get the f21 error code
Awesome video! ... since our F21 errors are intermittent, I've gone for the full solution, and was able to take the hose off and remove the ball but I'm having trouble getting a wrench in to open the spring hose clamp so I can put the large hose back (you mentioned this was the toughest part of the job). I've been searching for a type of hose pliers that I can buy that open wide enough (~3 1/2"), and that lock or ratchet. Do you have any suggestions for particular products that will work?
I wonder if large vice groups would work?
I ran into the same issue and I happened to be using some rubber gloves at the time (to keep my hands from getting dirty) so I just took one of the gloves and slide the fingers over the pliers and that give me much grip to grab the clamp and secure back in place
Hi Scott! Can you clarify which clamp you used in this video to constrict the metal piece over the rubber tube? Having a hard time putting it back in place. Thanks!
Hi Emile,
Can you send that same question tic my email: scottthefixitguy@yahoo.com
We’re you able to find out why the propeller was so hard to spin? Did you fix it or replace it?
Any other suggestions. We completed as described. Still getting F21. Any other ideas?
Probably time for a new motor controller.
i can’t seem to get the piece to tighten it back up. tighten med it as much as I could
Thanks Steve,
Do you think there’s any water still in the washer?
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel I don’t know. I have a home warranty so I called Old Republic. It is a very old washer , 15 or so years old, I may take the panel off and have another look. When I tried to screw in the part I could not get it as tight as it was before
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel just took the panel off. used a flashlight there is something else in there. The clamp is on the hose too tight
So we did this and took the ball out and were able to turn the pump through the little hole. We are still getting errors at about 13 minutes left either "SUD", "F21" or "F25". Do you think changing out the pump will fix the problem? Thanks!

Super video! I applauded for $2.00 👏
Thanks so much
Sweet , this just saved me in two ways . 1 is my wife and 2 is my wallet .
I have a question , sometimes the little door that directs the water from soap to softener (where you add the laundry detergent) will make a clicking/skipping noise like the arm that moves the door from soap to softener is skipping . Do you have any videos on that or any recommendations . I have the top of the washer off and when that happens I can help that arm by putting a little pressure on it and then it will switch .
Can you see a way of keeping that plastic gear down as it turns so it won’t skip?
Maybe slightly melting the top of the plastic axle with a soldering gun?
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel hmmm ill have to try that , ill let you know how things turn out . Thanks again 👍
Ya a code F 20 on the Kenmore front loading washer with a bottom door.
Do you know why I’m getting a SUD code when I try to run a cleaning cycle? I changed the pressure switch due to a different issue and now I’m getting this.
Usually it’s from too much detergent or not using HE detergent.
@@ScottTheFixItGuyChannel but I’m not putting any soap in it. I’m just trying to run a cleaning cycle, I’m not even putting bleach in it.
Hose clamp pliers? Are they a plumbing tool?
Hi Pamela,
Here you are : www.gearwrench.com/products/pliers/specialty/3793-large-hose-pinch-pliers-2-12-od-capacity
Thanks so much. It’s a great video. I didn’t have the tool suggested - so I swapped out the existing clamp with one of those that you screw closed. Hopefully it holds at least until I can find a washing machine that has a drain hose longer than 4’. Any ideas? Thanks again!
@@FamAdventures you can add drain hose to your 4 foot hose to make it run longer.
@@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance Thanks again - LG doesn't recommend extending the hose, they say that the pump wouldn't be strong enough. Anyway, my hunt for a new washer / dryer continues. Thank you so much for your help in repairing my current washer. It's been repaired so many times that I think I'm living on borrowed time.
Thank you... 👍
You’re welcome 😊
I hope this works, however there was not just 2 cups of water, it was 4 gallons of water🥴
Wow, that’s a lot of water🙀
Yea mine was completely full!
This…. So much water….
If that ever happens again. That’s a sign your pump motor is struggling. Drain pipe could have been too high.. over time that makes your pump weak. It’ll drain the water out the tub. But it’ll just be sitting in the basket on the weak pump🙃 same with dryer.. ventilation should never been too far. Save a lot of time and money when u don’t over work your motors
Now that we removed the plastic ball, our washer is making a lot of noise and we are still getting the F21 error code. Any suggestions?
Replace drain pump possibly. Remove panel and try to run a rinse and drain cycle and see if the noise is coming from the drain pump.
the door won’t open it is still locked up
What happens when you do all that and still have the F21 code

If the pump still pumps water, check the water pressure air trap.
I fixed my moms washer watching this
Nice job Irene❤️😊👍
F 20
Thank you this did the trick!
