posted by ebaer on Apr 20, 2008


I get either an LD code or a C1 code. Since it drains initially, I don't think it is the pump, but maybe and issue with the electronics. Also it dosn not add the fabric softener.

LD is a Long Drain code. You mentioned that there is an initial drain so this could be due to some lint or debis caught up in the drain line or drain tank. You will have to remove the black drain line and inspect to make sure all is clear. If you hear a humming noise while the cycle is in the drain cycle, your pump gears could be stripped. If this is the case - the pump will need to be replaced.

The C1 code is a motor current error. The source of the problem might be the motor, but will take more detailed electrical troubleshooting to find out.
