My Roper washing machine will not drain the water after the wash cycle.

Drain pump is probably jammed and not pumping.

How old is your washing machine?

Use this video to help you replace the lid switch that is broken.

drains wash water

Hi,

Problems with a washing machine not spinning or not draining are often interrelated..

my washer stops at a rince cycle and wont drain to spin dry

the washer needs to have the lid closed to go into spin cycle the lid switch is broken just replace it and that will fix it

Set the timer to spin manually and turn it on.
Does it spin?
If not,
Your lid switch is bad and must be replaced.

If yes it does spin.
The timer is bad.

Check your drain pump, it might disconnected from wash motor, or drain hole clogged.
