- Visible damage or a seized/broken impeller on the original pump

- Remove standing water and check the drain hose/sump for blockages before replacing the pump
- Access the pump from the base/front; release the lock (twist or tabs, per model) and transfer the wire connector
- Seat the new pump fully to seal; reconnect, then run a short cycle to check for leaks and proper draining
