This drain pump with pulley, also known as the washing machine drain pump assembly, is a pump with two ports. The function of this pump is to help expel water from your washing machine. The pump is activated after the spin speed has been maintained for a specific period of time and is driven by the same drive belt that also runs the transmission pulley. If your washer is not draining properly the pump could be clogged by a small object or could be broken and in need of replacing. Tools you will need for this repair include a 5/16 nut driver, a putty knife, a 3/8 socket with a ratchet, and a pair of slip joint pliers.

Load Grinding/Rubbing Noise in Rinse and Spin Cycles

First unplug the washer for the electrical outlet. You will need to tip the washer back to get to the bottom of the machine. There you will see the belt that drives the transmission and the water pump from the motor. Remove the belt and set it to the side. Then you will need to gain access to the top side of the machine by gently using a screwdriver to pry the front of the top up off the front panel on both sides then hinge it back out of the way. Use a nut driver to remove the two screws on the inside edge of the front panel and remove the front panel. Once the front panel is off you will see the water pump on the right hand side as you face the front of the machine. Remove the hose clamp on the water pump with the flat head screw driver or nut driver and use a pair of pliers to remove the compression clip on the water pump. Remove the 4 bolts holding the water pump in place. Reverse the entire process to put it back together. This job was very easy and I was only without a washer for 2 days because of partselect.com.

This pump helps expel water from the washing machine and is activated after the spin speed is maintained for a specific period of time. If your machine is not draining properly or if it is noisy and shakes during operation, you may need to replace the drain pump. This is a redesigned part. The pump now mounts on to the base of the washer. This product is made of white plastic and has a metal center. Before you can replace the drain pump, you will have to disengage the drive belt under the machine. To reach the drain pump you will need to remove the access panel on the backside of the washing machine.

Skreeching noise during spin cycle

Pulled out washer, laid on front, removed access panel and the pump was right there. Three screws with 5/16" nut driver, pliers to release hose clamps, remove hoses, remove belt from pully, remove old pump. Install new pump with three screws, two hoses and clamps, finally put belt on new pulley and other small pulley and used screw driver shaft to pull belt on to large pulley. replace access panel, put washer back in place. It literally took me more time to clean the floor under where the washer was than to change the part. Piece-o'-cake.

bearing on water pump siezed

back panel,belt two hoses,three screws, $100 dollars for the part!! pump is a molded part with a bearing insertion, is made in USA ! I'm guessing around 7 to 10 dollar manufacturing cost. I'm thinking that kind of mark-up is only exceded by the pharmacutical industry. I'm looking to buy a used machine for parts!!

Belt was slipping, belt particles on the floor

I removed the screws to loosen the belt, took off the old belt and put on the new belt. Tightened it up and has been working ever since.

Wife complained the spin dry not so good

First tip front of washer up about six inches and block. Removed belt by holding the old belt to the side of the big pulley and turn big pulley on opposite side with the other hand. Old belt was dirty, black and some carbon on floor. Cleaned up. Put belt around motor pulley and water pump pulley. Hold belt in track of big pulley. Turn big pulley with opposite hand until belt goes around the big pulley. The motor has a spring that maintains the tension.

Wife thinks everything is back to normal. Get a cool drink out of refrigerator while she carries on and thinks you are a hero.

Special note: Be sure water is out of washing machine. There are instructions on the internet but I have owned Maytags for over forty years and know belt replacements are occassionally replaced.

washer would not spin water out in heavy loads

You do not have to remove any water lines to do this repair. Just unplug the machine from the electric outlet and tip it up on its back to make the repair. I removed the old belt and parts per the instructions. The new kit does not look like the old one. Make sure you mark the minimum and maximum marks with a sharpie on the plastic pulley before intalling it. This will help line up the cam bearing to test the spin cycle. The repair kit says to use the thickest washer but mine would not fit on so I used the thinner washer. Keep the other washer so that in the future if the plastic part wears down and you have spinning problems again you can replace it with the thicker washer. Also make sure you buy a new belt and replace the belt. I loaded it up with a full load of jeans and it works great.

washer would agitate, drain, but would not spin

I put the washer on the spin cycle and could see that the tub wanted to move. While it was trying to spin I leaned the washer forward and saw that the motor was spinning and the belt was turning, but the tub wasn't. Did some reading and it was the thrust bearing. I ordered the part and replaced them (very easy, follow the directions that come with the set). After install, the tub would spin.

Washer was not running thru rinse cycle

Removed upper back cover to expose the timer, the whole panel could then be tipped foward which made it easy to work on.
Removed the dial knob on front by popping off the cover then pryed up a smaller plastic button used to hold the knob in place.......knob slid off.
Disconnected wire harness from the switch.......had to pry up the snap tab that holds it in place.
Had to remove a small electrical board attached to the back of the timer......used screwdriver to pop it up and out (gently).
Removed one hold-down screw, lifted a little lock-tab and slid the unit to the left and lifted out and replaced.
I'm sure I forgot something.........but the whole thing was pretty easy to figure out .

The belt and pulley on the drive motor broke

unplug the washer. Removed the top of the washer by removing the hold scews and tabs on the upper back. Place a scew drive under the front and pry up to release the snap tabs. Then the front panel by removing the two screws on top and lift the panel up to expose the motor at bottom front. Remove the motor cover (plastic)and motor from the base, replace the pulley on the shaft (you may need to break or pry the old pulley off) install the new pulley making sure it is all the way up the shaft locking the tabs into the shat groove. Reinstallmotor to the base. To replace the belt, tilted the unit backwards to access the pulleys from the bottom and installed.
Note: it ios easier to install the belt fully on the two smaller puleys attcahed to the drive motor and pump and then wrap as much as you can around the larger drum pulley. Hold the belt in one hand and turn the drum pulley clockwise with the other and the belt will follow and install. reverse steps to reassemble.

Had placed clothes, water and detergent in machine but it did not start the cycle.

I am a woman (small) very low on funds and could not see myself spending $140 plus parts. I found your website and was able to determine the cause of the problem, since it did not appear the solution would be too difficult to accomplish I ordered the two parts that could be causing the problem. The parts were delivered in 2 days and I was able to do the repair in less than 15 mins I only used the lid switch. The old parts do just snap out and you snap the new one in. Thank you so much for your site. In these economic times you are a godsend.
Keep up the great work and again thank you!

Washing machine shut off at begining of cycle

The washing machine was full of clothes, water, and detergent when it decided to stop working. I pulled the washer away from the wall (I recommend using two people for this), and removed the back access panel (two screws at the top and bottom). With the washer plugged into the wall outlet I used a multimeter to test electrical distribution through the system. Power goes directly to the Lid Switch from the outlet and is disrtibuted to the washer from this point. When I physically engaged the Lid Switch power was not distributed to the system. This told me that the switch was bad. I unplugged the washer from the wall outlet, then removed the Lid Switch.

To remove the Lid Switch, disconnect the wire connection by pulling straight up, pull back then up on the Lid Switch and it should slide out.

Keep in mind when this happened it was 8 or 9 pm, no supply depots open. I don't recommend an amateur performing this, but in order for me to get the clothes washed I made a jumper wire, composed of two wires twisted together at one end, (wires need to be of equal or greater gauge). I inserted the twisted end of the jumper wire into the black wire port of the Lid Switch wiring connector, then inserted one of the wires into the red wire port and one into the yellow wire port of the connector. Making sure the jumper wire did not make contact between the red and yellow, I plugged in the washer. The washer completed the cycle.

Installing the Lid Switch, reverse removal.
