Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the washer and be prepared for water when accessing the pump.
Step-by-step checks:
- Test pump: Disconnect the pump and measure resistance across its terminals. Compare to spec (typically 10–40 Ω). Infinite or very low resistance indicates a bad pump.
- Inspect wiring: Check the harness from the pump to the main control for damage or loose connectors.
- Control output: During a drain command (live test only if qualified), verify that the control sends voltage to the pump.
When to replace: Replace the drain pump if its winding is open/shorted or if it does not run with proper voltage. If the pump and wiring are good but no voltage is sent, replace the main control.
