Why is my washer HLPW028AXW shutting off the electrical breaker when it gets to the spin cycle
For model number HLPW028AXW
Hello Cynthia and thanks for writing.
When an RCD circuit breaker trips or a fuse blows when your appliance is in a spin this is usually caused by leakage to the ground or a short-circuit. The problem can be caused by incorrect connection of the appliance. Make sure your unit is not leaking water during the spin circle. This could also be caused by a worn belt # PS4126140as it would overheat so check this part as well.
I emptied all the water with a cup and laid the washer down on its back on the bathroom floor, ( it is a portable), with a few small pots and rags handy to collect water, just in case. I inspected the placement of the broken drain pump, I took photographs of all the wires placements and screws. I removed the broken drain pump photographing each step, then attached the new drain pump following each step in reverse and attached the 2 colored wires to the remains of the colored wires attached to the washer. I used electric tape to isolate and cover completely the exposed wires parts i joined. I then screwed everything back in place. I put the washer upright, connected the electrical cord and did a test. It is working great, and the water is draining well! It took me over 30 minutes, as the space under the machine, where the drain pump lodges, is quite tight and I needed a flash light.
Lifted up the washer from the bottom. Accessed the pump, unscrewed the motor and pulled off the rubber hose attached to the pump using a Phillips screwdriver and a wrench. Reattached the hose and the mounting screws. Worked just fine.
