Drain Pump and Motor

Drain Pump and Motor

Maytag washer discharge pump was leaking through several pinholes in the pump body.

Pliers, screwdrivers

I was very surprised to find the discharge pump on my Maytag washer with over 5 pinholes in the body. The repair was very straight forward. Unplug washer, undo water supply/discharge hoses, remove back, place washer on front. Undo 2 hose clamps, 1 power connector and 3 screws to remove pump. New pump came with a shield that was not part of original design. warnings are very explicit about what can happen if you don't use it. Use it. Install was the reverse and job was done in well under 30 minutes. I also want to say that the price was way cheaper than other web retailers. I made the mistake to use another retailer for a new motor and overpaid by about $60. Stick with PARTSDR.

Washer would constantly go into overload error.

For pump motor assembly used a nutdriver, pliers small flat screwdriver and channel lock pliers for hose clamps

My repair was a complete rebuild of a Whirlpool Cabrio washer that included the drain pump and motor assembly purchased from partsdr.com The drain pump is under the bottom of the unit so replacement is relatively simple by putting the unit on it’s side or front and access is simple. The replacement pump was an exact fit and works flawlessly after installation. I performed the full diagnostic routine after my rebuild since I replaced the main-shaft and bearings with much other disassembly and replacements. Thank you Parts Dr. for providing a value solution for my rebuild.

Washer would not drain

Wrenches, screw driver, pliers

Once I figured out the problem, it was an easy fix. Diagnoses was the most time consuming part.
