The Drain Pump and Motor is an original LG (OEM) replacement part for LG made washing machines that is responsible for removing water from the washer at the end of the wash cycle. The pump forces water out through the drain hose so that clothing comes out free of excess water, making the drying process faster. 

Symptoms of a failing Drain Pump Motor include:

  • Water not draining out of the washing machine 
  • Noisy or unusual sounds coming from the pump area during the drain cycle
  • The washing machine stopping mid-cycle

Causes of a bad Drain Pump Motor can range from obstructions in the pump or hose, which can strain or damage the motor, to wear and tear from regular use leading to motor failure. Electrical issues can also affect the motor's performance, preventing it from operating correctly.

This OEM LG part can also be used on Kenmore/Sears appliances.

Beth, With the unit stopping and not doing anything, the first thing to check will be the lid switch. If the lid switch has failed the unit will no longer agitate or spin and drain. You will want to test the lid switch for continuity with the lid closed. If there is no continuity then the switch is bad. You will want to check the drain pump which is part number WP3363394 the lid switch part number is 285671.
