Lift the washer up from the front, remove the belt and check how freely the pump pulley is moving. Most likely the problem is a bad pump bearing.

- The part number for the pump is AP3873289

Faulty pump bearing is one of most common problem with this washer. I believe replacing the pump should solve the problem.

Remove the rear access panel. If it would not help then remove the front panel.
