Question about Whirlpool LSB6200KQ Top Load Washer
This isn't the exact model, but I couldn't find mine. Machine was new in 2003 and about 2 weeks ago the drain pipe started overflowing during the rinse cycles. I've put Drano, Liquid Plum'r and even bought a snake with no success so I'm sure there isn't a clog in the pipe. If I pinch down on the drain hose the water won't overflow. It seems that the pump is putting out more water than the pipe can handle, but not sure how that could happen all of a sudden or how to fix it. Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated.
The pump will pump out at a continuos rate that wont change, the problem will be with the standpipe. You dont have to have a total blockage in the pipe, sometimes the diameter of the standpipe reduces due to scale build up and it just cant cope with the rate of flow.There will be a restriction somewhere.
