Hi,

I would remove the access panel below the door. You will then be able to see the water pump. There is a big screw on cap that you can remove and check the filter in the pump to see if it needs to be cleaned.

Even with the water drained out of the washer there will still be some water sitting in the hoses and pump so have some towels ready to catch the water when you remove the cap on the end of the water pump.
