Customer Questions and Answers for Drain Pump by Whirlpool

The Drain Pump is an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines. This component is essential for removing water from the washer during the drain cycle. It ensures that water is efficiently pumped out of the washing machine, preventing water from remaining in the tub after a wash cycle, which is crucial for the appliance's proper operation and the cleanliness of your laundry.

You should replace the drain pump if it becomes faulty or stops working. Common causes of a bad drain pump include blockages from debris or lint, wear and tear over time, or electrical malfunctions. These issues can prevent the pump from effectively draining water.

Symptoms of a bad drain pump include:

• Water not draining from the washing machine
• Unusual noises during the drain cycle, such as humming or grinding
• The washer stopping mid-cycle with water still in the tub
• Error codes related to draining issues on the washer's display

This OEM part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.
