OK, it's six o'clock in the AM, and I can't slee
Sounds like the cams on your timer are shorting or something has broken on the timer that controls reversing the motor. During drain periods the motor is reversed to pump water out of the machine instead of into the tub impeller. I have a similar problem on my Maytag top loading portable, but in my case, the motor doesn't ever reverse to drain. Hope someone here will contradict me, because if I'm right, you're going to need to find a new control timer. Or find someone who can repair it.
Just occurred to me: is there an overflow flotation device on the bottom of the tub? If there is, and it's set wrong, it could be telling your machine to pump out the water too soon. It would look like, either a plastic upside-down flower pot, or a codpiece. (and don't pretend you don't know what that is) | ||

draining out... does this have a side mounted motor, or a motor mounted under the center of the tub? I find the side mounted motor assemblies sometimes have problems with the solinoid/flapper diverters on the pump housing- show a pic of the motor! Robert | ||

hose jamming the solenoid I agree with Robert. Sounds like the new hose may be holding the drain solenoid partially open or jamming it in some way. | ||

Hey Guys Thank you for your advice. Will try and let you know. Robert, the motor is a central mount and I will take a photo when I get a chance. Regards Bruce | ||
