Top load model - similar to Whirlpool Cabrio
Get code LD. Quick search says this means "Long Drain" and it times out after not draining soon enough. Youtube had me hopeful that something just had blocked drain at bottom of the tub but does not appear to be case. Opened drain and didn't see anything except some gunk/grime. Don't think that would block it. Drain line from pump to wall drain appears clear. Next option is replacing pump.

Anyone with tips?

Sometimes the pump get stopped up with a small item. May have to remove it to check out.

Didn’t completely remove pump but did stick finger in and couldn’t feel anything. Impeller did seem to turn freely

When I had similar problem with a Whirlpool Cabrio I had to replace the drain pump (DYI) to fix it. I think it was about 8 years old at the time. 2 years later started leaking waterfrom tub seal, DYI fix was to involved so I cut bait and bought a Speed Queen - figured I got my money out of the Cabrio with 10 years service. .

Easy fix for my Whirlpool Cabrio not draining a few years ago might be worth a try. I had my drain hose too far down into the drain. Pulled it out a bit and used some wire to hold it in place and it started draining again. No problems since.
