Vedette Condensate Pump Not Moving Water

Dryer stops with water remaining in the condenser area, or the tank does not fill.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Blocked pump inlet, failed condensate pump motor, kinked or blocked drain hose, faulty pump wiring.

Safety first: Unplug the dryer and carefully remove any standing water.

Step-by-step checks:

Clean pump inlet: Access the pump compartment and remove lint or debris from the pump inlet and reservoir.
Check hoses: Ensure hoses to and from the pump are not kinked or blocked. Flush with warm water if necessary.
Test pump: With the dryer reassembled and powered, start a cycle and listen for pump operation when water should be moved. If silent, the pump may be defective and should be replaced.
