If your laundry room has puddles, it's
0:02
time to check your Kenmore washer. Don't
0:04
call a plumber yet. Let's see if you can
0:06
fix it yourself. First, unplug your
0:09
washer. Safety comes first. Next, move
0:12
the washer away from the wall so you can
0:14
reach the back. Now, look for the drain
0:17
pump. It's usually at the bottom front
0:19
of your washer. Place a towel or small
0:22
pan under the pump to catch any leftover
0:25
water. Check the hoses connected to the
0:27
pump. Are they tight? If not, use a
0:31
screwdriver to tighten the clamps. Still
0:34
leaking? The pump itself might be
0:37
cracked or damaged. To remove it, loosen
0:40
the screws or clips holding the pump in
0:42
place. Take out the old pump and slide
0:45
in the new one. Make sure all
0:47
connections are secure. Reconnect the
0:49
hoses. Double check that everything is
0:52
tight. Push the washer back. Plug it in
0:55
and run a quick wash to check for leaks.
