I am hoping someone can offer help! I have a GE front loader, model-WCVH6260FWW and I have tried 4 seperate times and it looks like its spinning but when it says its done I open the door to clothes soaking wet? Any suggestions? Thanks so much, Jamie

hi Jamie;

Perhaps the pump is being blocked by debris. Try taking off the lower panel (3 screws) and check the pump for blockage.

You say the tub is spinning?

It won't spin at full speed if the pump is blocked or not working properly, so remove the panel and check the pump filter. It is a white object right in the lower front area and has a handle on the filter that unscrews.

It was such an easy fix, we went down there and did as you said and unscrewed the filter and it was completely clogged and full of water and now the washer is perfect! You easily saved us $150!!! Again Thank You!!!!! Laughing

Great post!!!..I checked mine and there was a 5 year old nest in there..I wish the filter was accessable without having to take the lower panel off...seems it would be much easier and I would have known there was even a filter there...This site is awsome!

Thanks, Kevin
