My washer has an error code of E20, the water won't drain and I suspect it is plugged. How do I unplug the clog? Thanks
It could be a defective or plugged pump. Remove the pump from the machine and check where do you have this clogged, inside the pump or in the pipes connected to it. Goog luck!
To access the pump, first bail and sponge out any water in the machine's tub. Then tip the washer over on its front, using a heavy blanket or pad to protect the washer's finish. Remove the back service panel. The pump is usually located along the right side of the bottom of the machine, but with the unit tipped on its front it's easier to remove it through the back than through the bottom of the washer.
Locate the pump. It has two large hoses attached to it with spring or strap clips. If the clips are the spring type, pinch the ends of the clips together with pliers to release them, and slide the clips down the hoses. If the clips are the strap type, unscrew the metal collar to loosen the clamp. Disconnect the hoses by pulling them off the connections. If the hoses are kinked or crimped at these connections, straighten them as best you can and reconnect them.
Good luck!
