Why is my Kenmore Elite washing machine not draining?
A Kenmore washer that won't drain properly likely has a clogged pump. Try checking the drain to see if there's any foreign object obstructing the valve or opening. If not, the drain pump might be damaged and need replacing. Those with newer washer models can also try performing a master reset.
How do I force my Kenmore Elite washer to drain?
Squeeze the locking pin on the end of the drain hose that is connected to the back of the washer if you will be draining the water into a floor drain. Pull the hose away from the washer to disconnect it. The water will pour out as soon as the hose is disconnected.
