Default GE Front Load Washer Won't Drain
Model Number: gbvh6240   Brand: GE   Age: 1 - 5 years   

I have a GE Front Load Washer, Model WBVH6240. It recently stopped draining. I removed the front service panel and drained the tub using the drain plug. The filter was pretty clogged with various items (coins, a rock, nail, screw, etc).

I thought that would fix the problem but it still does not drain. The pump doesn't seem to operate, it is hot to the touch so I'm assuming it is burned out. Confirmation of that would be great or if there was an easy way to verify I'd appreciate it.

I can't figure out how to access the pump in order to remove / replace it. I can't access from the front service panel or the rear. Right now that is the biggest obstacle for me to repair - Help.

The pump is a DP40-018 Hanning Elektro Werke. I also couldn't find the pump or this model washer on this web site for parts.

Thanks,
Scott
