I was very easy to remove the drain pump and install the new one. It only took about 15 minutes. My only concern is that I could see quite a few coins in the bottom in some sort of plastic housing but I could not see anywhere to remove this and clean it out. I am wondering if that had something to do with the drain pump going bad because I found 2 dimes inside the drain pump. If any one has any tips on how to remove the plastic housing and clean it out, it would be much appreciated Thanks!!!
