Brian B Canton , GA July 26, 2021 Leaking pump. Replaced the pump, as well as the hoses from the tub to the pump and the pump to the drain. Wasn’t sure if it was truly the pump or one of the hoses. I completed the repair without taking the washer out of the laundry room. That was a tight squeeze and a reminder of how old I’m getting as I was cramped down behind the washer for most of the time. After unplugging the washer and removing the back panel, I drained the water from the drain line and pump ( by removing the drain hose) and then disconnected the hose from the tub to the pump. Removing the pump was really easy. Just 3 bolts (that were in rough shape) and then unplugging the wiring harness and removing the old pump. Putting in the new one was pretty straightforward. The 3 bolts went back in and the harness connected where the old one was removed. I replaced the hoses and then ran a short load to check for leaks. Once I knew I didn’t have any leaks, I replaced the back and pushed it back against the wall. Lastly, I basked in the wife’s attention for fixing the washer. I let her think it was harder than it really was. Read More... 5 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: 1-2 hours Tools: Pliers, Screwdrivers, Socket Set
Jeff W Ham Lake , MN March 27, 2022 Appliance: LG Washer WT5170HV My washing machine was leaking water. Suspected a hose or the drain pump. Put my model number in APP website. Easily identified the drain hoses and pump. Ordered them all because of the 365-day return policy. The parts arrived and a couple screws and clamps later, problem solved. Read More...
