Frigidaire 137221600 Drain Pump OEM Part

So, Saturday, the washer wouldn't drain, yes, I tried the Drain/Spin cycle. So I took the clothes out, rinsed them out twice in the laundry sink and dried them. After a quick Google search, I came to the conclusion that the pump was bad and ordered a pump, $125. Over the course of the next four days, expecting the new pump on Thursday, I baled out the washer, pulled it out from the wall and propped up the front (it's HEAVY), removed the front access panel, removed the drain inlet and outlet from the old pump (what a PAIN!), removed the one remaining screw holding the pump in (the other was just laying there), unplugged the pump and cleaned up the massive water mess from the remainder of the water in the tub that I couldn't access which drained out all over the floor and the washer bottom. Today is Thursday, the pump came today. I installed the new pump, re-attached electrical and both hoses (did I mention what a PAIN that is?), partially filled tub with water, ran Drain/Spin cycle, nothing. Decided to check drain hose. Pulled the washer all the way out in the room so that I could remove the exterior drain hose, checked it, no obstruction. Removed the drain hose from the pump, checked the portion of the drain hose that is inside the machine, no obstruction. Re-installed inside hose, outside hose, cleaned the floor while I could, pushed the washer back in and had just about decided I had to bite the bullet and replace the machine. After all, it is 25 years old. I Googled a little more and decided to check the short portion of drain between the tub and the pump which contains a "coin catcher". Baled out the machine, again, got more towels, disconnected the pump inlet and put my hand over the end of the hose to slow the outflow of water, luckily I had a lasagna pan ready and got it under the hose, caught the majority of the water in it and toweled up the rest. Loosened the other two hose clamps (PAIN) and removed the short section of drain hose. Took it over to the laundry sink (it was GROSS) and removed the "coin catcher" which was completely PACKED with lint, pennies, staples (lots of staples??) and my pocket knife that went missing years ago! I cleaned out the "coin catcher" and the drain hose, and then re-installed the drain hose to it's 3 connections (have I mentioned what a PAIN it is to manage those hoses and hose clamps?). Partially filled the tub with water, ran the "Drain/Spin" cycle and the water magically left the tub! My first load, post ordeal, is in now; all the towels that I used during this process. And as an added bonus, the floor is still dry! The moral of my story, besides ladies we CAN take care of ourselves and always check all the drain hoses before ordering a $125 part? CHECK YOUR POCKETS!!!!! Happy Thursday! ?? (PS - Slightly used washer pump available, you pay shipping!)

I have only good things to say about Appliance Parts Pros. I'm a landlord so I am always repairing an appliance and have only had great experiences with this company. Recently I had to repair a Kenmore stackable washer that would not drain and water spilled out when the door was opened. I looked up the model # and there happened to be a video which clearly explained what the problem was most likely and how to replace the drain pump. Seeing how there isn't much between the washer tub and the outlet hose except the pump, I put my order in for the pump and it came 2 days later, always quick shipping with these guys! The replacement went smoothly although my model was slightly different than the video, actually it needed less steps to get the job done. Unclamping the hoses to the pump and putting them back on again was the toughest part of the repair only because it was somewhat awkward to reach. In my case, the hardest part was getting my son to help me lift the dryer off the washer so I could get to the repair! It took a little over 90 minutes to finish including clean up. You will have water spill out of the pump during removal so have a couple of towels ready to soak it up. I've mainly bought Kenmore appliances in the past and have bought repair parts from Appliance Parts Pros to repair a stove for the ignitor, washer soap tray, dishwasher overheat sensor, washer water valve assembly, dryer bottom panel and a few more I've forgotten. Shipping is always fast and they have an unbeatable return policy. One of the main reasons I've used them in the beginning were their great videos that take most of the mystery out of how to repair relatively simple problems once they are explained. Keep up those videos APP because they are key to helping ordinary people like us save time and money.

Replaced the part and it works great!

Replaced it with part ordered from "Appliance Parts Pros".

Replaced it, was pretty easy.
