Amana front load washer door needs a lift up to close. Repairs have been made on this door and it persists to be lifted to shut. What can be done?

Pack it up and send it back to AMANA. Let them pay to put it in a landfill. You are lucky if this is the only issue you are having with this machine. Seriously, the droopy door hinge is the tip of the poor engineering ice berg.

Hi Maryann, Sorry but I do not know about a replacement washer. It would be my suggestion that you contact HurryCane and state your problem. This should not happen and perhaps they will take care of the problem at no cost to you. Jim Vleck

Check the inner washer to make sure it doesn't pinch. Rather than replace try to remove and reset on facet.

Send it back. They should replace it. I have had mine for more then a year and it stays closed.Henry

Tighten a little more and make sure the crush washer is crushed or remove and try again but when comes off remember where the logo is and add a 1/4 turn before starting over

If there is water in you will have to drain it from the back. There are two metal clamps that attaches a grey hose once you were to remove back panel, of course unplugging and moving with a folly if you have one to some Where you don't mind getting flooded with water. I had to learn the hard way. Water everywhere. Once the tub is drain, hose reconnected with clamp and plug dry and connected the door will open. I am a female and was able to do it before calling service. Mind you after three time twice finding a coin in my pump I now have a new top loading washer again.. Good luck!

The way i do it is to take off the bottom portion by pushing the white washer up through the middle hole and pull it out. There will be a hole exposed. Then I use one of my keys to stick through the hole and push the strainer up.

I don't have any experience with a front load machine. Mine is a HE top loader. The package instructions say to toss the Unstopables directly into the washer with the clothes. That's what I do. No problems for me.

Carefully use a paper clip or similar instrument to pull the tiny little washer out. And ONLY the tiny little washer. It might take a little while, just be patient.

The best thing to do is call the costumer service and they will ask you to unplug the machine and than turn on again so the part will collapse down. On our machine it happens so many times to the point we had to send to repair but we often need to re do the process over and over again. The repair did not help. I would call them and try their steps.

It is fixed. We had to pay for it, but it is still very tough and tight to close the door. I don't know when it will be broken again. I still hear the banging noise.4/16/15 - It is now broken again after spending money to fix it. It is too expensive to use now.

Since B&D makes the opener I would contact them directly. I'm not familiar with the repair parts or process.

I don't have a front loader, but I put mine in the softener thing in the middle. When I talked to the man from the company, that's what he told me to do. Hope this helps.

Use another crush washer. Tighten a little, loosen it, tighten alittle more, loosen it, tighten a little more, loosen it, tighten a little more and stop with the logo on the top.

I would check for mechanical binding first. You can disengage the mechanical drive and try to move the door up and down manually. Possibly the drive didn't get fully engaged after repairing the spring.

If you have a liftmaster or chamberlain with the plastic gear drive take a look at it and see if it is stripped. Sometimes when the chain is tightened it puts too much pressure on the big gear and concaves it. Thus the door might start but the gear would slip and not go all the way up. The other thing to check is the up power adjustment.

Hi. sounds like it. The washer will not function if the lock is not working. Really not a hard job at all, took me about an hour, which is mostly taking the back cover and top off! Sounds like this will do the trick, and an easy job. Hope this helps.
