Signal sd followed by signal F21 repeatedly showed up. Finally found out about removing front panel to check if filter was clogged. There was alot of debris which I removed. Replaced filter. Cleared hoses. Ran another cycle and showed same F21 signal again. Do I need to replace the entire drain pump and is that difficult to do. Single mom of 4 - cannot be without my washer and cannot afford repair person. HELP!!!

F21 means 'long drain' as per error codes availble here: -
