Whirlpool WTW5010LW0 Washer Not Draining? Broken Wire Harness Repair | W11643701 In this video, I diagnose and repair a Whirlpool washer model WTW5010LW0 that was experiencing an intermittent drain problem.
The washer would sometimes complete the cycle normally and other times leave water sitting in the tub. After testing the drain pump and confirming it was working properly, I traced the issue to a broken wire in the lower wiring harness—a very common problem on these Whirlpool washers.
Instead of repairing a single damaged wire, I replaced the entire wiring harness to ensure a long-term reliable repair.
