The Frigidaire Drain Pump is an OEM part for Frigidaire washing machines. It plays a crucial role in the washer's operation by removing water from the wash tub at the end of each cycle, ensuring your clothes are properly drained before the spin cycle.
Causes of a bad drain pump can include blockages from debris such as coins, lint, or small items that escape from clothing, as well as motor or impeller damage. Electrical failures can also impair pump function, leading to inadequate water removal.
Symptoms of a bad Frigidaire Drain Pump include:
- Water not draining completely from the washer
- Unusual noises, like humming or buzzing, indicating the pump is struggling
- Washer stopping mid-cycle
- Water pooling around the base of the machine
This OEM replacement is also compatible with Electrolux, Gibson, Kelvinator, and Kenmore models.
