Washing Machine Drain Pump

The Drain Pump Assembly is an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part specifically designed for Samsung washing machines. It plays a critical role in the drainage process, efficiently removing water during rinse cycles to prevent flooding. Proper functioning of the pump ensures effective cleaning cycles.

Indicators of a malfunctioning drain pump assembly include:

- Incomplete water drainage or extended drain times
- Unusual noises or vibrations due to impaired water removal
- Leaks from blocked water exit points, potentially causing damage
- Error codes stopping cycles due to overflow or drainage sensor issues

Common causes of a faulty drain pump assembly include worn impeller or motor parts, which can lose their effectiveness after extensive use. Additionally, debris clogs can obstruct the housing and overwhelm the pump.

Replacing the faulty pump with this genuine Samsung part restores reliable drainage, optimizing cleaning cycles and preventing leaks. This part is also compatible with certain Kenmore models.
