This is a drain pump motor assembly for washers. This OEM part is responsible for removing water from the washer during the drain part of the cycle. When this part is clogged, damaged or defective it can cause the washer to not drain properly. Keep in mind that the pump casing is sold separately. This repair is rated medium-difficulty and can vary depending on the model. For this repair you will need a Philips screwdriver, a small flat blade screwdriver, needle nose pliers, and slip joint pliers. Do not forget to disconnect the power before you begin this repair. In general, this repair can be started by removing the top of the washer followed by the front panel. Moving down the front of the appliance, remove the door, latch, tub gasket, and drainer cover. The drain hoses and clip will need to be disconnected from under the drain assembly. To install the new pump motor, reassemble parts in the reverse order. We recommend taking photos while disassembling and keeping screws and parts neatly organized.

Fix Number: FIX1485646
Manufacturer Part Number: 285753A

This is an OEM direct drive motor coupling, which provides a cushioned connection between the transmission and the motor shaft. This is the newer version of this part, made with new metal sleeves for added strength. It is located between the motor and transmission on direct drive washers with no belt. If the drive system seizes, the coupling is designed to break to prevent the drive motor from damage. Consequently, this part may need to be replaced as your appliance ages. Never overload your washer, as this can speed up its deterioration. Symptoms of a faulty motor coupling include a washer pumping but not spinning, slow spinning, the washer not agitating, and unusual noises. This coupling kit contains all the parts necessary to replace your existing direct drive motor coupling. Please note, that after replacing the motor coupling your washer may smell like burning rubber for the first few uses, this is entirely normal as the part becomes acclimated to the machine. Each is sold individually.
