I have a may tag bravo washer code Ld on checked hoses- lights up but doesn't start

LD generally means a long drain. This can be caused by debris in the pump or a damaged pump motor or impeller. You'll need to unplug the washer, secure the lid with duct tape. Slide the washer forward and remove the inlet hoses. For the Bravos line, you need to tip the washer forward. Let the front of the machine rest on the floor. Now you can access the internal hoses that connect the drain pump and re-circulation pump to the washer tub. Separate the hoses from the pumps and check inside them for debris. Note: have a bucket and towels ready to catch the water that may be in the hose, wash tub or the pumps. Also check the discharge hoses that go up the side of the washer from these pumps. Disconnect the wiring harness and remove the screws that hold the pumps in place. Check the inlets of the pumps for debris. You can use needle-nose pliers to reach some items. Reconnect the pumps and those hoses and tilt the washer back up. Connect the water lines and plug in the washer. Check if the error recurs.

Listen to the washer and see if it tries to pump any water. If needed, replace the pump motor or other drain system parts. This is rare. Usually the washer prevents permanent damage to the drain pump system by stopping.

I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the model number for diagrams of the drain pump and hoses.

(The foreign object(s) probably got into the washer during a previous wash cycle. It shifted to block the drain pump system when the water drained during the clean washer cycle.)

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

LD error code means long drain, you can try to check the drain hose and clean it completely. Also take out the agitator and check any stuck clothes there. After this if the problem is back then replacing the pump is recommended repair. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

For the LD error please check for the following:

• Check for kinked or clogged Drain Hose: Remove any obstructions in the drain hose / stand pipe / utility sink. Straighten the hose to remove any kinks. If the washer is unable to drain due to a kinked or restricted drain hose, the washer may not spin.
• Check for Standpipe higher than 8 feet above the floor:The pump is not powerful enough to pump water to heights greater than 8ft. The water will remain in the basket.
• Check for excessive suds in the washer: Drain pumps cannot drain suds out of the washer.

To clear the suds condition: Check the drain hose and make sure the hose is not plugged or kinked Press pause/cancel twice to clear the display Run the machine through a Rinse/Spin cycle using cold water, then a Normal cycle using cold water.

Note: Do NOT add any additional detergent. This will remove much of the remaining detergent held in the fabric. This step may have to be repeated to remove all the detergent.

Error code LD means Long Drain. It flashes when washer takes longer than 5 minutes to pump out water to a point where the operating pressure switch resets. Make a careful visual inspection of the hoses, and see if you notice anything under the main tub, that could be causing a blockage.

The "LD" code or "long drain" indicates a pump/drain related issue. Check the drain line for kinks or obstructions. Check the pump. Remove the hoses from the pump and use a flashlight to look into the suction port. Make sure nothing is clogging the pump (like the occasional stray sock) and check the pump impeller. Make sure the impeller has no broken/missing blades and that it spins freely. If any blades are missing/broken or if you can't get the impeller to spin freely, the pump is defective. Hopefully it's just a clogged drain line, pump, or jammed impeller. Sorry for your trouble and I hope this helped. Best wishes.

Is the drain hose kinked or clogged? Is the drain hose installed properly? look in the installation Instructions, Press POWER/CANCEL to clear display........ hope this helps.....
