Product review (5 stars): Great OEM Replacement Drain Pump; 100+ Loads & Running Strong!
Great OEM replacement for your LG Front Load Inverter Direct Drive washer/dryer combo. Good Part! Our washer/dryer combo ended up not working, and I diagnosed it through a series of tests, that the drain pump had failed. Ordered this replacement and swapped them out. The only glitch I encountered was that the original pump housing and new pump once fitted had a gap of a couple mm and to prevent leaking I ended up creating a secondary gasket with some blue, waterproof RTV. This problem was not due to the replacement drain pump, but a manufacturer defect in the original pump housing. If you find yourself in the same predicament, create a secondary gasket with some gasket making RTV, keeping it clear of the pump mechanisms and you should be set. The process worked like a charm, and the washer has been running strong ever since, and I do three loads of laundry a week; husbands clothes, three-year-olds, mine, and many other towels and wash clothes. I was very pleased with the pump, and the quality. I think this drain pump works better than the original that came with my washer/dryer.
