Description

This drain plug seals the washer drain opening to prevent leaks and direct water flow into the drain system. It restores a proper seal so the appliance can drain reliably and helps avoid water pooling under the unit. What it does:

• Seals the washer drain opening to prevent water leaks at the base
• Directs discharged wash water into the drain system for proper drainage
• Common symptom fix: water pooling under or around the washer after a cycle
• Common symptom fix: intermittent leaking from the bottom/front of the cabinet

What's included: One drain plug. Install notes:

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing.
• Access may require removing the rear or front lower access panel depending on model.
• Inspect mating surfaces and any gaskets; clean debris before installing for a proper seal.
• Hand-start the plug, then snug—avoid over-tightening to prevent damage.
