looking for a drain motor for Model WT17WSBP where cab I get one
I don’t know the part number, but I can tell you from experience that pumps very rarely fail. 90% of failures are a foreign object getting into the pump and jamming it. I would recommend you remove the pump and look at the water pump gear to make sure it spins freely.
Great try, but still useless. Can’t navigate through their products. What is worse when you download manual, except from the cover, it doesn’t say which product you’re reading, so you can really compare between tge couple of them. Extremely bad naming convention.
This is my first time visit here. From the tons of comments on your articles,I guess I am not only one having all the enjoyment right here!
