General Electric Drain Pump WH23X10043 OEM Part

Gray Plastic Drain Pump Assembly for Washing Machine

If a washing machine does not drain or displays leakage, the replacement of this component becomes essential. The pump measures 9 inches in height, 6 inches in length, and 4 inches in thickness. Designed as an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part, it fits several GE brand washers, including Hotpoint, General Electric, and select Sears-Kenmore models. Its main role is to extract used water from the machine both during and after the wash cycles, effectively preventing issues such as mold growth and unpleasant odors caused by stagnant water.

There are several factors that can lead to drain pump malfunction: blockages from small garments or debris, motor issues, or damage to the pump's impeller.

Signs indicating a need for pump replacement include:

- Excess water remaining in the washing machine after completing a cycle,
- Unusual noises emanating from the pump during operation,
- Sudden halts in machine function during cycles.

This drain pump is also compatible with RCA and various Kenmore models.
