the drain pump is growling and making quite a racket when the machine is running. Any way to repair or do I just replace?

Remove the bottom panel.

Remove the filter from the drain pump and check for a foreign objects inside. Be prepared for some water on the floor.

For more accurate advise I need the complete model number of the washer.

Hi Gene,
The Whirlpool model is GHW9100LW.
I cleaned out the filter, some dirt and grease, but other than that there wasn't much in there.

Sounds like the drain pump has to be replaced.

- The part number for the drain pump is AP3953640

Here are the break down diagrams for the Whirlpool washer Model GHW9100LW0
