I’m in a bit of a pickle. I need to replace the drain pump on my Amana washing machine, but I’m not sure how to do it. I’ve looked online and tried to follow the instructions, but I’m still not sure what to do. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of repair? Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated. I’m hoping to find a way to do this myself, as I don’t have the money to pay for a repairman. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me!
I recently had to replace the drain pump on my Amana washing machine. It was a bit of a challenge, but with a few tips and some patience, I was able to get it done.
First, I unplugged the machine and shut off the water supply. Then, I removed the back panel to access the pump. I had to be careful, as the screws were tight and I didn’t want to strip them.
Next, I disconnected the hoses and wiring harness from the old pump. Then, I carefully lifted the pump out of the machine and set it aside. I replaced the old pump with the new one, making sure to connect the hoses and wiring harness correctly.
Finally, I put the back panel back on and plugged the machine back in. I turned the water supply back on and ran a test cycle to make sure the pump was working properly. Thankfully, it worked!
