What could be wrong when water from the washing machine backs up in the pipe?

Are you referring to the outgoing waste water backing up? You've probably got a blocked pipe running to your main sewer line. If other pipes (sink drains, toilets) aren't backing up then the blockage is between the drain pipe for the washer and wherever it ties in to the main line. You can try running a sewer snake down the waste water pipe to clear the clog. Or, the pipe could be collapsed from age/tree roots. On some older homes they don't have PVC pipe -- the lines may be old clay or paper pipes that may collapse. In that case, you'll need to dig up and replace the line.
