AHA72973309 Genuine OEM LG Washer Drain & Circulation Pump Assembly
The AHA72973309 is a genuine LG OEM drain and circulation pump assembly for LG and select Kenmore front-load washers. This is a dual-purpose pump — an Askoll M120-2 unit — that handles two separate jobs from one motor and housing. During the drain portion of the cycle, it pumps wastewater out of the tub and out through the drain hose. During the wash and rinse portions, it switches roles and recirculates water from the bottom of the tub back up through the dispenser and spray nozzle, showering it back over the load. That recirculation spray is what lets LG's front-load washers clean effectively with less water than an older top-load design would need.
Because this single assembly performs both functions, a failure here can show up in more than one way: standing water left in the tub after a cycle, a washer that won't complete its drain step, unusual grinding or humming noise, or reduced wash performance if the recirculation spray isn't working even though draining still seems fine. Common causes include debris such as coins, buttons, or lint lodged in the impeller, general wear and tear on the motor bearings, or an electrical failure in the pump motor itself. It directly replaces AP5676608, 2659237, AHA72973304, and PS7788830. As a genuine OEM part, the AHA72973309 is manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
Quick Answer
The AHA72973309 Genuine OEM LG Washer Drain & Circulation Pump Assembly fixes LG and select Kenmore front-load washers with standing water left in the tub after a cycle, a washer that won't drain, unusual grinding or humming noise, or reduced wash performance from a weak recirculation spray. Askoll M120-2 dual-purpose pump — handles both draining and mid-cycle water recirculation. Replaces AP5676608, 2659237, AHA72973304, PS7788830. Installation is average difficulty, 30 to 60 minutes — and on many models it's accessible through the front panel without needing to tip the washer over.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Standing water left in the tub after a cycle finishes
Washer won't drain, or drains very slowly
Drainage-related error code displayed on the control panel
Unusual grinding, humming, or rattling noise during the drain or wash portion of the cycle
Reduced wash performance — clothes not getting as clean, possibly from a weak recirculation spray
Washer stalling mid-cycle at the drain step
Water leaking from underneath the washer near the pump housing
Pump that hums but doesn't seem to move water — possible clog or seized impeller

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer And Shut Off Water Before Starting — Drain Residual Water First Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and close the water supply valves before beginning. Wear work gloves. Place towels down and have a shallow pan ready, since the pump housing will hold residual water even after a completed cycle — draining this into a pan before disconnecting hoses will save you a mess. On many models, this pump is fully accessible by removing the front lower access panel or kick plate, without needing to tip the washer onto its back — check this first, since it can save significant time and effort compared to some online guides that recommend tipping the unit. Photograph the hose routing and wiring connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the two hose clamps connecting the pump to the tub and drain hose, and unplug the electrical connector from the pump motor. Remove the mounting screws or clips securing the pump assembly and lift it free, checking the impeller area for coins, buttons, or debris while it's out — clearing a clog here may have been the actual cause of the original symptom. Install the new AHA72973309 in the same orientation, reconnect both hoses with their clamps, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Reinstall the front access panel, restore water and power, and run a short cycle to confirm normal draining, recirculation spray, and no leaks around the pump housing. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, hose clamp pliers, shallow pan or towels, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I really need to tip the washer over to replace this pump?
Not necessarily — check your model first. While a lot of general online guidance recommends tipping the washer onto its back to access the pump from underneath, many LG and Kenmore Elite front-load models make this pump fully accessible through the front lower access panel or kick plate instead, without any tipping required. It's worth removing that panel first and seeing what you find before committing to the more involved tip-over approach.
Why does this one pump handle both draining and something during the wash cycle?
LG's front-load washers use this same Askoll pump for two different jobs at different points in the cycle: pumping wastewater out during the drain step, and recirculating water from the bottom of the tub back up through the dispenser and spray nozzle during wash and rinse to shower it over the load. That recirculation spray is part of how these washers clean effectively while using less water than an older top-load design. Because one pump does both jobs, a failure can affect draining, wash performance, or both, depending on what's actually gone wrong inside it.
There's water left in the tub after every cycle. Is this definitely the pump?
It's one of the most common causes, but check the easy things first. A clogged drain filter or a kinked drain hose can produce the same "won't drain" symptom and cost nothing to fix. If the filter and hose are clear and water is still standing in the tub, or if the pump hums but doesn't seem to move any water, the pump assembly itself has likely failed.
My washer drains fine but clothes aren't coming out as clean. Could this pump be the cause?
Possibly. Since this same assembly also handles the recirculation spray during wash, a partial failure can leave draining intact while weakening or eliminating that spray function, which reduces how effectively detergent and water reach the load. If drainage is normal but wash performance has noticeably declined, it's worth having this pump checked as one possible cause alongside things like detergent dosing and water hardness.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by LG to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It includes the same Askoll M120-2 dual-function pump design, wiring, and mounting configuration as the drain and circulation pump assembly originally installed in your front-load washer.

XPARTCO 280187 Washer Drain Pump Assembly
The XPARTCO 280187 is an aftermarket replacement drain pump assembly for Whirlpool-built front-load washers sold under the Whirlpool, Kenmore, Kenmore Elite, Maytag, KitchenAid, and Amana names. The drain pump pushes water out of the tub through the drain hose at the end of the wash and rinse stages. When it clogs, wears out, or seizes, the washer can stop with water still in the drum, throw drain errors, stop before the spin cycle, leak, or make loud humming or grinding noises.
This is a complete drain pump assembly, including the pump motor and housing, so it replaces the whole unit rather than just an internal part. The pump sits at the base of the washer behind the lower front panel, and the swap typically takes 15–30 minutes with common hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Power and Expect Water Unplug the washer and turn off the water supply before starting. Remove the lower front panel to reach the pump at the base of the washer, then drain any residual water into a shallow pan or with a wet/dry vacuum, using the drain hose or the small drain cap if your model has one. Disconnect the wiring harness from the pump, then loosen the clamps holding the hoses and pull the hoses off. Remove the pump's mounting screw and take out the old pump. Fit the new pump in the same position, reattach the hoses with the clamps (replace worn clamps if needed), and reconnect the wiring harness. Check that the pump and hose connections are secure, replace the front panel, restore power and water, and run a drain cycle while checking for leaks. Common tools include a nutdriver or Torx driver, screwdrivers, and pliers.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning any repair. Place towels and a shallow pan at the front of the washer to catch residual water. Open the small access panel at the lower front of the washer and drain any remaining water through the drain hose or filter port. Remove the front panel of the washer by unscrewing the top panel screws, then removing the door gasket retaining wire and door latch screws to free the front panel. With the front panel removed, the drain pump assembly is now visible at the lower front. Use a flat-head screwdriver to release the pump mounting clip, then disconnect the drain hoses using pliers to loosen the clamps. Disconnect the wire harness from the pump motor. Pull the motor assembly out of the pump housing. Install the new 4681EA2001T motor into the existing housing, reconnect the hoses and wire harness, secure the pump clip, and reassemble the front panel. Restore power and water supply, then run a drain/spin cycle to verify proper drainage. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-head screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, slip-joint pliers, shallow pan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between 4681EA2001T and 4681EA2001N?
These are the same drain pump motor — 4681EA2001T is the updated current part number that replaced the older 4681EA2001N. LG issued the updated number during a production cycle revision. If your washer or its documentation shows 4681EA2001N, 4681EA2001D, or any other older variant, the 4681EA2001T is the correct replacement to order.
What does the OE error code mean on an LG washer?
OE (or OE error) stands for "Outlet Error" — it means the washer was unable to drain within the expected time. Common causes include a clogged drain filter, a blocked or kinked drain hose, or a failed drain pump motor. Before replacing the motor, check and clean the drain filter and inspect the drain hose for kinks or blockages. If both are clear and the washer still shows OE, the pump motor has likely failed and needs replacement.
Does this include the pump housing?
No — the 4681EA2001T is the motor assembly only. It installs into your washer's existing pump housing, which is not included and does not need to be replaced in most cases. If your pump housing is cracked or damaged, you will need to source it separately. In most repairs, the housing is reused and only the motor assembly is replaced.
Should I check the drain filter before replacing the pump motor?
Yes — always check and clean the drain filter first. LG front-load washers have a coin trap and filter at the lower front that should be cleaned regularly. A heavily clogged filter or a foreign object jammed in the impeller can cause OE errors and loud humming without the pump motor being permanently damaged. Remove the filter, clear debris from the impeller area, and test the washer. If the problem persists after cleaning, the motor is the likely culprit.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine LG OEM part, but is manufactured from durable metal and ABS plastic to match the electrical specifications and performance of the original 4681EA2001T drain pump motor assembly.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing the drain pump filter. Place towels or a shallow pan beneath the filter access panel to catch residual water — there will always be some water remaining in the pump housing when you remove the filter. Locate the pump filter access panel at the lower front of the washer and open or remove it. Turn the old WH23X38617 filter counterclockwise to loosen and remove it. Clear any debris from the filter housing and wipe the area clean. Install the new filter and seal by inserting it into the housing and turning it clockwise until snug — do not overtighten. Close or reinstall the access panel, restore water supply and power, then run a short cycle to verify proper drainage and confirm there are no leaks at the filter port. Tip: Clean the pump filter every 1–3 months as part of regular washer maintenance to prevent buildup. Tools needed: None for the filter itself; a screwdriver may be needed to open the access panel on some models.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the drain pump filter do?
The drain pump filter catches lint, coins, hair, buttons, and other small items before they can reach the drain pump impeller. Without the filter, debris can jam or damage the impeller — leading to pump failure, loud grinding noises, or a washer that won't drain. The filter also acts as a cleanout access point so you can periodically remove accumulated debris without disassembling the pump.
How often should I clean or replace the pump filter?
GE recommends cleaning the pump filter every 1–3 months depending on how frequently you run the washer and how much lint your laundry produces. The filter should be replaced rather than just cleaned if it is cracked, stripped at the threads, or if the seal is damaged or missing — a compromised filter or seal will leak water from the access port.
Why is water leaking from the front of my GE washer near the bottom?
A leak at the lower front of the washer near the pump access panel is most often caused by a damaged or deteriorated pump filter seal, a cracked filter body, or a filter that is not fully tightened. Replacing the WH23X38617 pump filter and seal resolves this in most cases. Make sure the new filter is hand-tightened snugly — do not overtighten, as this can crack the housing.
Will there be water when I remove the pump filter?
Yes — there is always residual water in the drain pump housing. Before removing the filter, place towels and a shallow pan or tray directly under the access panel to catch the water. The amount varies depending on how much water remains in the washer after the last cycle. Running a drain-only cycle immediately before removing the filter will minimize the amount of water released.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same pump filter and seal that GE installs in compatible models from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.

XPARTCO DC31-00187A Washer Drain Pump Motor
The XPARTCO DC31-00187A is an aftermarket replacement washer drain pump motor compatible with select Samsung front-load and top-load washers in the WA4, WA5, WF2, WF3, WF4, and WF5 series, as well as select Kenmore washers built on the Samsung platform. The drain pump motor drives the impeller that expels water from the washer tub during the drain phase of each wash cycle. When the motor fails, the washer will not drain, will leave standing water in the tub, stop mid-cycle, or display error codes 5C, SE, SC, 5E, or SUDS.
This motor-only assembly includes the pump motor, impeller, and replacement O-ring. Rated 120V, 60Hz, 80W, 1.1A (CL.F), with a 30-minute on / 30-minute off duty cycle. Dimensions: 4-1/4"L x 3"W x 4-1/4"H in gray/white/black plastic, metal, and rubber housing. The DC31-00187A is the motor component that installs into the existing pump housing on compatible Samsung washers — the pump housing (DC97-20621C assembly) is reused from the old pump, making this a motor-only swap rather than a complete pump replacement. It directly replaces DC31-00187D, DC31-00178A, DC31-00178D, PX3516-01, 03DC3100187A, 4958525, AP6977256, EAP9605762, PD00056512, PS9605762, and PS1274262. Installs in 20–30 minutes with basic hand tools.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Gloves Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves — there are sharp edges inside the washer cabinet. For front-load models: remove the lower front access panel to expose the pump housing and filter. Drain residual water via the filter drain hose (have a shallow pan ready). Disconnect the wire harness from the motor. On most Samsung front-load models, the motor assembly twists out of the pump housing by rotating counter-clockwise — do not force it. Remove the old motor, note the O-ring position, and install the new O-ring from this kit onto the new DC31-00187A motor. Insert the new motor into the housing and twist clockwise to lock. Reconnect the wire harness. Reinstall the lower panel, restore power and water, and run a drain/spin cycle to confirm drainage. For top-load models: access through the lower front panel or by tilting the washer on its side depending on model. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, shallow pan, towels, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between DC31-00187A and DC97-20621C?
The DC31-00187A is the drain pump motor — the electrical component that drives the impeller. The DC97-20621C is the complete drain pump assembly, which includes the motor plus the outer pump housing, hose connection ports, and mounting hardware. When you order the DC31-00187A, you replace only the motor and reuse the existing DC97-20621C pump housing. When you order the DC97-20621C, you replace the entire assembly including the housing. Both resolve the same drain fault — the DC31-00187A is the more targeted repair when the housing is in good condition.
What error codes indicate a drain pump motor failure?
Error codes 5C, SE, SC, 5E, and SUDS on compatible Samsung washers all indicate a drain fault — the washer was unable to drain within the expected time. Before replacing the motor, clean the drain filter/coin trap at the lower front panel. A clogged filter is one of the most common causes of these error codes and does not require motor replacement. If the filter is clear and the codes persist, or if the pump is making loud noise or is completely silent during the drain phase, the motor needs replacement.
What is the difference between DC31-00187A and DC31-00178A?
These are cross-references for the same or very similar Samsung drain pump motor used across different Samsung washer generations. The DC31-00178A was used on earlier Samsung models and the DC31-00187A is the current version. Both are commonly listed as interchangeable replacements for each other in Samsung washer drain pump repair. The DC31-00187D and DC31-00178D are also variants of the same motor from different production runs.
Should I clean the filter before replacing the pump motor?
Yes — always check and clean the drain filter first. On Samsung front-load washers, the filter is accessible behind the lower front kick panel, typically on the right side — remove the cap slowly and drain water into a shallow pan first. Lint, coins, debris, and hair are very common causes of Samsung drain error codes that are completely resolved by cleaning the filter without any parts replacement. If the filter is clear and the error codes persist, the pump motor is the next component to replace.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical specifications and performance of the original DC31-00187A drain pump motor.

AAS73229402 Genuine OEM LG Washer Tub to Pump Hose
The AAS73229402 is a Genuine OEM LG replacement tub-to-pump hose (also called a drain pump bellows assembly) compatible with a wide range of LG and Kenmore washing machines. This hose carries water from the outer tub to the drain pump, allowing the used wash and rinse water to properly empty from the tub during the drain cycle. It features flexible bellows that let the hose expand and contract as the tub moves during operation, while forming a watertight connection between the tub and the pump. When this hose cracks, splits, or develops porous areas, water leaks out during draining — typically showing up as a puddle under the washer.
Made of durable rubber engineered to resist wear through years of flexing and water exposure. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by LG to factory specifications, the AAS73229402 directly replaces AP6973533, AGM76891101, AHA75673401, and AEM74073303. This is one of those repairs where using the exact OEM hose matters — the correct fit and internal diameter ensure proper drainage and a leak-free seal, which unverified substitute hoses can't always guarantee. Installs in 30–60 minutes with basic hand tools.
Quick Answer
The AAS73229402 Genuine OEM LG Washer Tub to Pump Hose fixes LG and Kenmore washers that leak water under the machine during or after draining, don't fully drain the tub, leave standing water, or develop mold in the pump housing.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Washer and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves — Drain the Tub First Unplug the washer and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. Drain any excess water from the washer before starting — the tub and hose still hold water that will spill out when you disconnect the hose, so have towels and a shallow pan ready. Pull the washer away from the wall to access the panels (on many models you can leave the water supply hoses connected and just unplug the electrical cord). The hose is accessed by removing the rear panel: remove the screws (often 4) securing the rear panel to the back of the washer and set the panel aside. On some front-load models, the top panel is removed instead — remove the top panel bracket screws, slide the top toward the rear, and lift it off. Locate the tub-to-pump hose connecting the outer tub to the drain pump. Photograph the hose routing and clamp positions before disconnecting. Use slip-joint pliers to squeeze and slide back the spring hose clamps at each end of the hose (and loosen any center clamp with a screwdriver). Pull the old hose straight off both connections. Note: on some models the clamp on the pump differs from other nearby hose clamps — mark them so you reinstall each in the right spot. Install the new AAS73229402 hose, seating it fully onto both the tub and pump fittings, and secure the clamps in their original positions using the existing clamps. Make sure the hose is seated all the way on and the clamps are secure — a hose that isn't fully seated will leak and make a large mess. Reinstall the panel, push the washer back into place, restore power and water, and run a rinse/spin cycle to test drainage and check for leaks. Tip: some people find it easier to tip the washer up a few inches on a couple of 2x4s for better access. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, slip-joint pliers, towels, shallow pan, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
There's a puddle under my LG washer — is this hose the cause?
It's one of the most common causes, yes. The tub-to-pump hose carries water under pressure from the tub to the drain pump, so when it cracks, splits, or develops a porous spot, water escapes during the drain cycle and puddles under the machine. Before ordering, inspect the hose and its connections: pull the washer out, remove the rear (or top) panel, and look for visible cracks, splits, or wet spots along the hose and at the clamps. Also check the drain pump itself and the other hoses, since a leak can come from several nearby points. If the tub-to-pump hose shows damage or the leak traces to it, this is the correct part. Many people replace the drain pump and hoses together as a "while you're in there" repair.
What's the difference between the tub-to-pump hose and the drain hose?
They're two different hoses. The tub-to-pump hose (this part, AAS73229402) is an internal hose that carries water from the outer tub to the drain pump inside the washer cabinet. The drain hose is the external hose that carries the water from the pump out of the washer to your standpipe, sink, or drain. If your leak is inside the cabinet or under the machine, it's often the internal tub-to-pump hose. If water is leaking where the external hose meets your drain, that's the drain hose. Make sure you're ordering the right one for your symptom.
Can I use an aftermarket substitute hose instead?
We recommend the exact OEM hose. Tub-to-pump hoses have to match the specific fit and internal diameter of your washer's tub and pump fittings to seal properly and drain correctly. Appliance technicians specifically caution against using unverified substitute hoses on LG washers because an incorrect fit or diameter can cause leaks or drainage problems. The AAS73229402 is the genuine OEM part with the correct dimensions for the models it fits, giving you a reliable, leak-free seal. If you're unsure whether this is the right hose for your model, send us your model number and we'll confirm.
My washer won't drain fully and leaves standing water — is it this hose?
It can be, though incomplete draining has a few possible causes. A tub-to-pump hose that has partially collapsed, kinked, or is leaking can reduce the water flow to the pump and leave water behind. But standing water is also commonly caused by a clogged pump, a blocked hose, or a failing drain pump. Inspect the tub-to-pump hose for kinks, sagging, cracks, and blockages first. Also check the drain pump inlet and clean out any debris. If the hose is damaged, replacing it with the AAS73229402 restores proper flow. If the hose is fine, the drain pump or a blockage is the more likely cause.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by LG to factory specifications. It is the exact same tub-to-pump hose (drain pump bellows assembly) installed in compatible LG and Kenmore LG-built washers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance, sourced directly from the manufacturer.
