The short answer
Amana H washer is a model line whose members are listed in full in the table below — that list, and nothing beyond it, is what this page covers. Water that will not leave the drum is where most owners of these arrive, with a noise or a walk on spin behind it.
What goes wrong on these, and where each one is covered
- Water that will not leave the drum — The cycle ends with the drum full and the door locked, or it drains far more slowly than it used to.
- A noise or a walk on spin — Banging that appears only as the drum speeds up, or a machine that finishes somewhere other than where it started.
- A cycle that stalls part way — The display sits at the same reading for an hour with no fault shown and nothing moving.
- Water on the floor — A pool at the front after a wash, or a wet patch at the back found only when the machine is pulled out.
- A machine that will not begin — The panel may be dead, or it may light up and simply not respond when start is pressed.
Problem classes in order
- Water that will not leave the drum — First on this line.
- A noise or a walk on spin — Second on this line.
- A cycle that stalls part way — Third on this line.
- Water on the floor — Fourth on this line.
- A machine that will not begin — Fifth on this line.
- Body: No snapshot here carries a rate for this line, so this list gives an order and withholds the share. The order below is the order the build implies, and it holds across every model in the table.
Models in the H family — Every model this page covers, exactly as the model line is recorded. Nothing outside this table is a model number, and nothing on this page claims to cover a model that is not in it.

When to call a technician
Owner work on this line stops at the first panel: seals, vents, filters, levelling, supply and loading hold on every model in the table above, and anything behind a panel is a service call on all of them.
