Hello all. I am have a bad sound on a normal cycle at like 45 minutes. Its like a loud grinding sound. i have take it apart as far as the chopper assembly. and cleaned out some gunk that was in there also. I happen usually at the 45 mark when i think it does a big drain of the water. cause when you start it like around 70 or so it does a drain there. it doesn't do that noise at that time. But at 45 minutes its making that loud grinding sound. Should i replace the drain motor or is there any other test i can do to fix this. Thanks.

Hi,

When it's making the noise I would unplug the wire harness that goes to the drain motor to see if the noise stops.

If the noise stops then you know it's the drain pump making the noise.

I replace a lot of these little drain pumps because they get noisy.
