So, my 12-year-old LG top load Wave Force washing machine, for the first time ever, stopped working and gave an error code OE. A little googling said this was a water pump failure. Looked up a few things, watched a bit of YouTube, and ordered this pump. A couple days later got the part. Next day Shop-Vac 3 loads of water, dragged the unit outside, and took the hose off the pump and let the rest of the water below the interior basket drain. The skies then opened and I couldn’t even work inside the garage as it was raining sideways.Next day I replaced the pump. Nothing super expert level here, except the space is very cramped and figuring out ways to slide your hands through and around various parts to install a screw you can’t see or reach is tricky. Took about 40 minutes. Could prob do a second one in twenty. But when I reattached the hose from the tub, it seemed like the hose was way too big for the cylinder on the pump. I had to work to remove the hose from the original pump; I was worried the same hose was too loose on the new pump. But I’m like it’s an OEM and there’s the spring clip to tighten the hose: it should work.Move the washing machine back into the laundry room, hook everything up, run a rinse and spin with a single hand towel, and right away water starts pouring out of the washing machine. Disconnect, move back into the garage, and you can see the spring clip did nothing to make the hose watertight. Drain the washer, clean the laundry room, and it is raining sideways again (Florida). And moving this washing machine from the laundry to the garage is no walk in the park.So not sure what to do. Checked the Amazon page again: it’s listed as a replacement for my washer model. It fits the bracket, the power connectors, everything. But the intake port from the tub is just a few millimeters narrower than the original pump. Do I return the pump, look for a new tub to pump hose? So, I’m thinking of a gasket, or some rubber hose that’s the perfect diameter to increase the intake diameter by 3 millimeters. But, in the luckiest internet search ever, I came across this product called Self-Fusing Silicone Tape. I don’t want to bore you (HA!) so read about it elsewhere, but with this product I was able to wrap it around the intake port a few times and make the perfect gasket to increase the intake diameter. For five dollars.Next day apply the tape and the hose seems to be much snugger. Run another rinse and spin, but notice the pump\hose is still leaking, but at 1\100th of the previous amount before the self-fusing tape. Wrapped the intake port a few more times and then went to the home center and replaced the spring clamp with a proper hose clamp. No leaking now.So the pump works great, the price is right, it fits perfectly, but just be aware that you may have to take a few measures to insure the existing hosed fit the intake and outtake ports wont leak with the existing hoses, even though the Amazon page says this is the OEM pump for your washer model.

Pump went out on my LG top loader (WT1101CW) on a Sunday. Ordered this that afternoon. Delivered Monday. Installation was easy and took less than 1/2 hour. After removing the back panel, it was two hoses, two push on wires and two screws. It honestly took much longer for me to move the washer out to the garage to avoid getting water on the floor. Plugged the washer in, ran some rinse and drain cycles and everything is like new.

The part arrived quickly. It was easy to install and got my washer up and running in no time. It fit perfectly in it's place

Product was installed on an LG washing machine, operated OK for roughly 2 weeks, then one day the laundry room flooded. Upon removing the back panel and reviewing the drain pump, it literally split in half! Total disaster, water everywhere, draining into lower levels. Pretty pissed and filing a claim with Amazon to hopefully help with the home damage.

So while the pump worked, it wasn't exactly the same replacement. As can be seen in the pics, the inlet hose is slightly larger, and the mounting bracket isn't the same. I make it work but apparently there were two variations of this pump when released for an LG washer.Side note, when determining that the pump is the issue, check for 115v on the wires going to the pump. If the voltage is there, then your pump is the problem. If it is not, then the control board would be the issue.Anyhow, it worked. Next time I will search a bit more for the right mount.

This drain pump while not coming with bracket that holds it to base, was an easy transfer from old pump and works perfectly. Easy to install and less expensive than others. Also same manufacturer as original but is angled so the drain line to exterior line was not kinked.

I have an LG top load washer (WT1901CK) that has been giving me grief for a while now. For some reason, I would keep getting the OE error code meaning it won't drain. If I unplugged it for about 10-15 minutes, I could then complete a load. Typically by that point the wash has already been through the cleaning cycle so I would just run the rinse and spin cycle to finish it up. Sometimes this worked, other times, not so much. I noticed that the original pump would get very hot (especially after doing a sanitary load). So I think overheating was the issue. Running a cold load did not result in the OE error, just hot loads.This pump is a direct replacement. It's a bit. tight under and behind the washer drum to get at the 3 bolts holding the pump in place. There are also the 2 hoses with spring clamps and 2 wires to deal with. Not too difficult if you're a bit handy. I, unfortunately I guess, have large hands, so it was very tight and after some scratches and cursing, I was able to switch out the pumps in less than 30 minutes.Now my washer runs perfectly.

I was a bit concerned that the hoses wouldn't fit the new pump, but they fit perfectly. I swapped out those cheap clamps that were on the hoses originally for some worm gear clamps.
