Washer turns on, drum doesn't spin and can hear loud buzzing coming from under the drum
For model number YFW450SPM1DG
Hello Logan, thank you for reaching out. Check for any items, like coins or small objects, that may be caught in the washing machine's drum. This can cause a buzzing noise as the machine tries to operate. Inspect the washing machine's drive belt to see if it is worn out or damaged. A faulty drive belt, part number PS3487272, can also produce a buzzing sound. We hope this information helps!
Removed three 7mm sheet metal screws from the bottom front panel. The drain pump is in the front right. Removed the manual drain screen to drain residual water from the system. A bucket was necessary to collect all the water. Disconnected the inlet and outlet hose. Disconnected the electric supply. Removed two Phillips screws holding the pump to the bottom of the machine. Slid the pump towards the rear to clear the support pegs and removed it from the front opening. Installation is the reverse of those steps.
2 things to note if you’re going to replace this part. First, you definitely need the 6” crescent wrench as noted in the instructions. Second, tape up the flanges of the machine so you don’t cut your arms to pieces on sharp metal edges.
