The Water Pump is an OEM replacement part for Whirlpool washing machines. It plays a key pump function by introducing water into the wash tub. Proper water circulation is necessary for effective cleaning.

Symptoms of a faulty pump include: 

  • Slow or no water filling during wash cycles    
  • Water leaks or drips due to cracked pump housing
  • Loud grinding or knocking noises during operation
  • Error codes for water fill related issues

Causes of pump failure can be due to regular usage over time, mineral buildup inhibiting flow inside the pump, or cracks developing in the plastic housing exposing internal components to corrosion.

This OEM Whirlpool replacement is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

Hello Mike. You unscrew the front of the pump and pull out the filter. It will come out with the front of the pump. There will also be water come out so be prepared for that as well.

Hello Argh. Either the pump housing is bad or you don't have the hoses hooked to it properly. Check the housing for cracks.

Ida K for Model Number MHWE251YG00

Thanks for the vid! Saved me $100 in labour :D My washing machine seems to be missing the base that the pump motor sits in. In the video I see that the gussets are slipped into holes on a metal mount... my machine just has floor (I bought it second hand). I can't seem to order the part since I don't know what it's called, and it doesn't exist in the part manuals on your page. I am thinking of just strapping the motor down to a hefty wood block since I don't want it just jumping around. Thoughts?

Hello Ida. Some are made different than the video. Your model number does not have this type of set up. Thanks.
