Washer would not empty when it hot drain cycle
Once I determined it was the drain pump, (by taking off the drain hose and letting it empty by gravity, then running the spin cycle which worked ok) I ordered the part, got confirmation from PartSelect.com that it would fit my washer. I removed the old pump taking out the 6 screws needed to hold it and the cover in place and unplugged the electric connector. I installed the new pump from PartSelect.com using the same cover and 6 screws and electric connector. I reconnected the drain hose and the washer has worked perfectly since then!

The machine stopped working completely! My wife went on YouTube,and learned that it could be the motherboard or the door latch. We changed both, and the washer would only fill but did not drain, and spin! We called a serviceman, and he had to program the service board,but said that the new door mech
We changed the circuit board once, and the door latch mechanism twice because we ordered a faulty part. Then we had to hire a service man to program the circuit board, and to inform us that the door latch mechanism was faulty.
