Charlie December 22, 2011 for Model Number WM2688NM I removed the complete unit of the pumps should I replace the both of them so I will not have problems later, and does it come complete as one unit will you let me know please I would appreciate your input on replacing this pump or pumps thanks very much.
1 Answer Hello Charlie. No, there is no assembly for the complete unit. You will only need to replace the pump 4681EA2001T on the unit that is bad. Hope this helps. Read More...
1 Answer Hello Craig. The wiring diagram shows the blk. (common) is the negative post (if marked). The SB (silver/ w/ blue stripe) is the positive (if marked). If the terminal spades are different sizes, then match them with the pump terminals. In this instance the motor will run either way but you can also follow the common blk. wire that is hooked on the drain pump and follow where the blk. wire should be hooked to the recirculation pump. The wiring diagram did not supply with the wire color legend so I hope this is helpful. Please let us know if this served you well. Thank you. Read More...
Dan December 01, 2011 for Model Number wm2016cw My washer will not drain, just hums for 10mins then times out with a OE code. The filter has been cleaned and it is level, will part k340 fix my problem?
1 Answer Hello Dan. Make sure the drain lines and the tub to pump hose are clear. If so, you will need to replace the pump motor 4681EA2001T. Hope this helps. Read More...
Don G. November 25, 2011 for Model Number WM1812CW Washer will not drain and the OE error message flashed. There was a faint hum (relay?)and a slight electrical odor. After manually draining the lines and filter were cleaned. Other cycle functions seem to work. I believe a replacement pump is needed. The stacked are built into a tight area. Can the pump be accessed from the front without the need disassemble the cabinetry?
1 Answer Hi Don. Yes, The drain pump is at fault with the OE - Code. Part # 4681EA2001T. The LG washers are amongst the most challenging units to access interior parts. If you are patience enough and can reach in from the back, you can successfully change the drain pump. You remove the power always. Or you will remove the top, soap dispenser, console, door and front panel. This by way of loosening the front of the boot, and the door switch. Thank You. Read More...

John S. September 24, 2011 for Model Number K340 Do I need another pump to replace when I install k340?
Jim September 20, 2011 for Model Number WM 1815CS Lg Tromm Washing Machine I keep getting an OE reading. I drained the machine drained and cleaned the hoses put everythinG back together. Ran the machine again and it did not drain. Is it safe to say I need the 80 watt drain pump since I watched everything cycle and water was re-circulating ok.
1 Answer Hello Jim. Yes, based on the information you provided, it sounds like the pump 4681EA2001T is bad and will need to be replaced. Hope this helps. Read More...
Pat F. August 28, 2011 for Model Number WM2277HW Both circulation and drain pumps need to be replaced. One is 80 Watts and the other is 32 watts. You show only one pump and don't give the specs. Can you help me?
1 Answer Hello Pat. For the pumps, you will need to order 4681EA2001T 80 watts, and EAU61383518 30 watts. Hope this helps. Read More...
Pat F August 28, 2011 for Model Number LGWM2277HW My machine makes the growling sound the others above are reporting. However, it still pumps the water out. We get a full cycle and clean clothes, just a lot of growling noise. The drum turns freely and the sound doesn't seem to be connected to the drum turning. The repair manual refers to a "circulation pump" as well as the drain pump. I have found the drain pump but not the circulation pump. What are your thoughts?
1 Answer Pat, you've already found your issue, you most likely have something in the drain pump( paper clip, needle, pin, etc.) I doubt the noise is from the recirculaton pump, Thanks and Good Luck Read More...
Tom August 13, 2011 for Model Number WM2455H I have a LG washing machine model WM2455H it won't drain. The pump is locked up and needs replacement. Could you please provide me with the procedure to replace the pump. Also would it be a good idea to replace the circulating pump while I have it apart. Thank You
1 Answer Hi Tom. You will need to remove the top. There are screws in back bottom of the hinge that will help. Then focus on the removal of the dispenser and all front panel screws. Open the door and look up to see if there ant screws hidden there. Pop off the front control panel and unhhook the electrical connectors. Then remove the door boot ring holding the boot to the outer door. Remove the screws holding the door switch. Remove the upper panel screws. Un hinge the front panel pulling it towards you from the top. Then lift the panel up/off the cabinet. The pump is accessible then. You will need a shop vac and a dozen towels because even empty the water is great. The pump part # is 4681EA2001T .Thank you. Read More...
