2048778290 Kenmore Upright Vacuum - Instructions

This is the same part that is on many Maytag washers. I cannot believe it leaked so soon. I spent 45 minutes or better on the phone with Maytag/Roper. Went through at least 5 people (as I was disconnected once), transfered to someone else mid sentence because I bought it at Lowes. I mean as soon as I said Lowes it was like, beep done. Oh and by the way after all that they still could not find the part I was looking for let alone give me a price. I was looking on the internet while on the phone and found this place. The prints/drawings are awesome and my part came in about 3 days standard shipping. I have book marked this site and will go nowhere else. The repair took about 5 minutes, poped off the old part and on with the new. I only used pliers to disconnect the water so I could move the washer out.

Layed washer on back side
Removed two clips holding pump ,and two clamps on hoses removed pump installed new very,very easy
only needed a pair of pliers.

First I removed the clamps that holds the pump in place.
Next I removed the water hose clamps.
Then I did the reverse to finish the repair.

remove the motor remove hoses find sock inside of pump couldn't removed install new pump take less than 2 hrs to fix

pulled the washer away from the wall and turned it on its side. I had to remove the gear box and motor to get to the part. Had to remove the whole insides. Install the part and put everything back in.

I pulled the machine out about two feet from the wall. No need to disconnect any hoses. Tip up the front, place an automotive jack stand under the front of the machine to hold it approximately a foot and a half up. Lay on the floor, remove the hose clamps, flip the two spring clips off that hold the pump, and it's off in minutes. Place the new pump in position and replace the two spring clips, slide the hoses back on and install the clamps. It couldn't be easier or quicker. Replacing the pump took 5-10 minutes max. The longest part of the project was cleaning up the spilled water..!

I disconnected the power supply then proceeded to tilt the washer top toward the back and propped the washing machine up about 1' off the floor. Once the machine was stablized I proceeded to remove two clamps to the pump using a pair of pliers and allowed any water inside to drain. Then I proceeded to unsnap the top and bottom pieces of metal holding the pump in place with a large slotted screw driver. Once the metal holds were removed I was easily able to pull the water pump toward the front of the washing machine. Then I installed the new pump and snapped the two metal bands down upon the pump to hold it in place. I then proceeded to hook up both hoses to the pump and using a pair of pliers clamped the hoses securely in place. I then placed the machine back on the ground, plugged in the power supply and ran a test cycle to make sure it worked and that there were no leaks.

First disconnected water hoses, put machine on the back, removed hoses from the pump, then removed two metal retainers that hold the pump. Motor's shaft got so rusty, that I could not remove the pump. I spent two days (few hours each day), until I finally was able to snap it off. If that wasn't difficult enough, putting new pump on was even harder. Metal rusted thru, and expanded from long leaking (previous owners probably had this problem for a while). I spent a lot of time filing it down with dremel tool, until finally I was able to attach the pump on the motor. I almost gave up in the process, but I'm glad I didn't, it works great. Motor might fail soon tho due to the rust.

The job was very simple and quickly taken care of with the use of a phillips and slot screw drivers. after the release of the top portion and a click of the fasterners of the washing machine the case was remove, the water hoses on the pump and two clicks the job was done I was much surprise on the fast delivery of the part. It arrived only within a few hours. I have been waiting for four days for parts to fix my internet service and still waiting. wish you had parts for that. You have a great site and the vidios are very informative. Many Thanks

Went to Parts Select website and pulled up diagram of my washer. Tilted unit back until I could see underneath. Water pump was leaking. Checked around for prices and Parts Select was 50% cheaper than anyone else. Ordered part on a Sat. and got it on Tues. Can't beat that for price and speed of delivery. Have ordered several times and have always been very satisfied.

Thought it was the water pump,and trouble shooting section said 77% of water leaks were caused by a bad pump,and it was. Thank you, les
