- Inspect and clear hoses, coins, lint, and debris that can block the impeller.
- Check for leaks after install; re-seat clamps and gaskets as needed.
Whirlpool Washer Pump FAQ
My washer won’t drain — is it always the pump?
Often, but not always. Check for clogs in the filter and drain hose first. If the pump hums, leaks, or the impeller is damaged, replace the pump assembly.
Front-load vs top-load pumps — are they interchangeable?
No. Mounting, connectors, and flow rates differ. Use your model number to get the exact pump.
Do you charge restocking fees?
No — we never charge restocking fees on standard returns.
How fast do you ship?
In-stock orders placed by 2 pm ship the same business day.
