2. Safety Information
Before attempting any installation or repair, ensure the appliance is disconnected from the power supply to prevent electric shock. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves and eye protection.
If you are unsure about any step, consult a qualified appliance technician. Improper installation can lead to damage to the appliance or personal injury.
3. Setup and Installation
This section outlines the general steps for replacing a washer drain pump. Specific procedures may vary depending on your Maytag washer model. Refer to your washer's original service manual for detailed instructions.
3.1 Tools Required
- Screwdrivers (Phillips and Flathead)
- Pliers
- Bucket or shallow pan (to catch residual water)
- Towels
- Work gloves
3.2 Installation Steps
- Disconnect Power: Unplug the washer from the electrical outlet. Turn off the water supply valves to the washer.
- Drain Water: If there is water in the washer tub, attempt to drain it manually or by siphoning. Place a shallow pan or towels under the drain hose connection points to catch any remaining water.
- Access the Pump: Depending on your washer model, you may need to tilt the washer back, remove the front panel, or access the pump from the bottom. Consult your washer's service manual for specific access instructions.
- Disconnect Hoses and Wiring: Carefully disconnect the inlet and outlet hoses from the old drain pump. Be prepared for residual water. Disconnect the electrical wiring harness from the pump motor.
- Remove Old Pump: Unmount the old pump from its housing or mounting brackets. Note its orientation for correct installation of the new pump.
- Install New Pump: Mount the new replacement drain pump (Model: ACTO-HAPT-PL-06032025-23069, Part No: W10276397) in the same orientation as the old one. Ensure it is securely fastened.
- Reconnect Hoses and Wiring: Reconnect the inlet and outlet hoses, ensuring clamps are secure and there are no leaks. Reconnect the electrical wiring harness firmly.
- Reassemble Washer: Reattach any panels or components that were removed to access the pump.
- Test Operation: Reconnect the water supply and plug the washer back into the electrical outlet. Run a short drain cycle or a small wash cycle to check for proper operation and any leaks.
4. Operating Considerations
The drain pump operates automatically as part of the washer's cycle. No direct user operation is required for the pump itself.
Ensure that the washer's drain hose is not kinked or obstructed, as this can impede the pump's ability to drain water effectively.
The pump is designed for intermittent operation. Based on the label, it has a duty cycle of "10 minutes on, 50 minutes off" (10min on 50min off). This indicates it is not designed for continuous operation.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance of the drain pump is generally not required beyond ensuring the washer's drain system remains clear.
- Check for Obstructions: Periodically check the washer's drain filter (if applicable) and the drain hose for lint, small objects, or other debris that could clog the pump.
- Inspect Hoses: Ensure all hoses connected to the pump are free from cracks, kinks, or leaks.
6. Troubleshooting
If your washer is experiencing drainage issues after installing the new pump, consider the following:
- No Drainage:
- Verify the washer is plugged in and receiving power.
- Check for kinks or blockages in the drain hose.
- Ensure the drain filter (if present) is clean.
- Confirm electrical connections to the pump are secure.
- The pump may be faulty if it makes no sound or a humming sound without draining.
- Slow Drainage:
- Partial blockage in the drain hose or pump.
- Pump impeller may be partially obstructed.
- Leaking:
- Check hose clamps for tightness.
- Inspect hoses for cracks or damage.
- Ensure the pump is correctly seated and sealed.
If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, it is recommended to contact a qualified appliance repair technician.
