Possible Causes

Open or shorted drain pump, wiring issue to pump, failed main control pump driver

Safety First: Unplug the washer and be prepared for water when accessing the pump.

Steps:

Access pump: Remove lower front panel. Locate the drain pump assembly.
Inspect wiring: Check the pump connector and wiring for damage or loose fit. Reseat connector.
Test pump: Disconnect pump and measure resistance across terminals. Compare to service specs (often 10–40 Ω). Replace pump if open or shorted.
Control check: If pump is good, the main control's pump driver may be faulty and the control board will need replacement.
