    Fault codes related to the Amana washer motor and capacitor is Error F7 E6.
    The main problem that happens with the washer motor or capacitor is the washer fills but will not wash or spin.
    The capacitor or motor is at fault when you have the error code F7E6 or f7 e6.

    Amana Washer = F9 E1 error code will show if the washer is not draining properly.
    Check that the washer drain hose is not blocked.
    Make sure the drain hose height does not exceed 96″.
    Check and clean the drain pump filter of foreign objects.
    Check connections from tub to air trap.
    Check air trap to pressure hose.
    Check pressure hose to water level sensor.
    Check that there is not excessive suds in the washer.

  3. Amana Washer has code rP. It is a model from 1992 – LW 4603 or LW 9203 on use and care guide. It starts washing, then the code appears and washing stops. Finally could get it to finish thru the spin and rinse cycle. When done, code still appears on display.

  4. Amana Front Loading washing machine 8 years old. Come to start cycle push button and after 30 seconds machine clicks and light turns red beside door lock. I noticed as well when setting my time for the wash cycle i used to have 29 minutes as an option and now i do not it shows 30 minutes.

    Bobbi Link,
    Your Amana washing machine is draining too slowly…

    Things to check:

    Check the drain hose and make sure it is not bent or clogged.
    Check/Clean Drain Pump Filter.
    Check for the Drain Pump to be sure it is in working condition and not clogged or jammed.

    Also… Remove the filter panel on bottom front of washer.
    The filer is inside, simply unscrew if from the pump and clean it out.
