Open up the back of the machine and check the DRAIN PUMP and see if, when you take the hoses off, if there is something inside of it stopping it from spinning or hindering the water flow. If it is clear, check the voltage from the wires to the pump and make sure your getting power to it, if your getting power, also read the voltage and make sure it matches the Placard on the pump. If it is too low, then you probably have a bad switch or computer board. If it OK, and you disconnect the hoses and the pump spins OK, then you probably have a clogged hose. Get back to us if that does not cure it.

Good luck,

Jim

Does a Samsung washing machine model WA12VP have a drain pump? It has a drain motor to activate the draining valve for draining right? Thank you.

Yes, the Samsung washing machine model WA12VP has a drain pump. The drain pump is responsible for pumping water out of the washing machine during the draining stage of the wash cycle.
It is possible that the issue you are experiencing is related to the drain valve rather than the drain pump. The drain valve is what opens to allow the water to flow out of the machine, and if it is not opening properly, the water will not drain.
To troubleshoot the issue, you can try manually opening the drain valve to see if water flows out of the machine. If it does not, then the issue is likely with the drain valve and it may need to be replaced.
If the drain valve is working properly, then you may need to check the wiring and control board for issues that may be preventing the drain pump from activating during the draining stage.

Water will not drain. humming noise

Hi

Dishwasher not draining issue usually occurs due to kinked drain pipe, clogged drain filter or drain pump. Check the drain hose for any visible clogging, remove if present. If no visible lint is present then remove then turn off the dishwasher and remove the drain hose and check for any visible clogging. If still not visible then the drain filter or drain pump is clogged and you'll need to clean the drain filter and drain pump. Humming noise is due to loose connections on drain pump or due to faulty drain pump.
Please note that dishwashers don't drain out the complete water such that heating element doesn't overheat. Hope this helps... Please post back for any further assistance.
