Happens only with linens it seems (clue?)

Model is YWFW9151YW00

 

I have googled and the usual issue is a clogged drain filter or drain check ball. This thing is eerily clean inside the pipes. There was zero gunk anywhere (clue?)

 

Pump? Board? 

Thanks in advance :)

I had a first generation Duet washer.  There was a corrugated rubber hose between the drain connection on the drum and the pump.  The hose was molded with a square chamber in it to catch loose change and debris.  Every 18 months I would have to pull the front panel off the washer, disconnect the rubber hose from the pump and clean out all the stuff that accumulated there.  

It's worth a shot....

Did that. There's a cap you unscrew and it's the lint trap. Clean clean clean. Then I heard there was a rubber hose that comes right off the drum with a plastic ball in it. Also clean. I will check the resistance across the pump leads now that I have a number to watch out for. Maybe tomorrow.

 

Thing is, it seems to only happen when it's bed sheets or when you do a second load immediately after the first one is finished. There are no strange noises from the pump either.
