XPARTCO W11458345 Washer Drain Pump
Product Description
Parts-O-Matic stocks XPARTCO parts as a value-priced alternative to OEM. The XPARTCO W11458345 is a compatible replacement drain pump for Whirlpool, Maytag, and Amana front-load washers. The drain pump removes water from the tub during the drain and spin portions of the cycle — when it fails, the washer will not drain and will typically stop mid-cycle or display a drain error code.
This replacement pump is built to compatible specifications and directly supersedes earlier pump numbers including W11316609, W11319789, and W10918608. The assembly includes the pump motor and housing as a complete unit.

What Is an OE Part?
OE (Original Equipment) means this part is manufactured by the same original supplier that produces the Genuine OEM version — identical fit, materials, and performance. The only difference is packaging: OE parts ship under our XPARTCO brand rather than the appliance manufacturer's branded box, which is why they can't be listed as Genuine OEM. You get factory-original quality at a more affordable price.

⚠ Installation Note: Unplug the washer before beginning any repair. The drain pump is accessed by removing the front lower access panel. Have towels ready — residual water in the pump and drain hose will spill during removal. Disconnect the wire harness and drain hoses, unscrew the pump from the mounting bracket, and reverse the steps to install the new pump. Installation difficulty is rated medium; standard screwdrivers and work gloves are recommended.
Frequently Asked Questions
My washer shows an F21 or F9 E1 error — is this the right part?
F21 and F9 E1 are both "long drain" error codes on Whirlpool-platform front-load washers, indicating the pump took too long to drain the tub. Before replacing the pump, check for a clogged coin trap/filter at the bottom front of the washer — a blocked filter is a common cause. If the filter is clear and the pump is humming but not moving water, or is completely silent during the drain cycle, the pump assembly likely needs replacement.
Does W11458345 replace W11316609 and W11319789?
Yes. W11458345 is Whirlpool's current active part number and directly supersedes W11316609, W11319789, and W10918608. All three earlier numbers were manufacturer-discontinued and W11458345 is the authorized replacement across all compatible models.
Why won't my washer spin if the drain pump failed?
Whirlpool front-load washers will not enter the high-speed spin cycle unless the tub has drained below a minimum water level. If the pump fails mid-cycle, the control board detects standing water and locks out the spin. Replacing the drain pump typically restores both draining and spinning in one repair.
Is this an OEM part?
No. This is an XPARTCO aftermarket part sold as a value-priced compatible replacement. It is not manufactured by or affiliated with Whirlpool Corporation. If you require a genuine Whirlpool OEM part, we carry those separately.
Should I clean the coin trap before replacing the pump?
Yes — always check the coin trap filter first. It's located behind the small access door at the bottom front of the washer. Coins, lint, and debris commonly clog it and mimic pump failure symptoms at a fraction of the cost. If cleaning the trap doesn't resolve the issue, the pump assembly is the next logical replacement.
