The Filter is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. This part traps debris, lint, and small objects that get washed out from clothes during the wash cycle. By filtering out these materials, the pump filter protects the drain pump and hose from clogs and potential damage, ensuring that the washing machine operates efficiently and the drainage system remains clear.
Causes of a bad washer pump filter can range from accumulation of lint and debris, which can clog the filter, to damage or wear that compromises its ability to filter properly.
Symptoms of a bad filter include:
- The washing machine not draining properly or leaving clothes excessively wet
- Unusual noises from the pump area, indicating struggling or blockage
- Frequent pauses or stops during the drain cycle
This OEM Frigidaire part is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator and some Kenmore models.
