W10536347 Whirlpool Washing Machine Drain Pump

Washing Machine Drain Pump

Whirlpool manufactures products under several brands, including Whirlpool, Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. They also produce items for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea. The Drain Pump, an OEM part for Whirlpool washing machines, plays a crucial role in expelling water at the end of the wash and rinse cycles. Its motor and impeller system push water through the drain hose, ensuring the machine empties completely.

Common signs of a failing drain pump include:

- Water not draining from the machine, resulting in stagnant water in the tub
- Unusual noises like buzzing or humming, suggesting the pump motor is struggling
- The washing machine halting mid-cycle due to drainage issues

Drain pump failure often results from obstructions by foreign objects such as coins or socks, motor burnout, or impeller damage. Regular maintenance, like checking the pump's filter for debris, can help prevent these problems.

This OEM part is compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Kenmore models.

This part addresses the following issues:
- Will not drain
- Leaking
- Pumps but will not spin
