Our HE3 washer has been a total stud for 12 years. No repairs, heavy use. But on Saturday afternoon, got the F02 code and it was not draining. Pulled off the lower panel and opened the trap, found lots of junk, but still no drain. I could feel inside the pump that the motor had lots of play, so I figured replacing the pump would be a good move.
Problem: It's Saturday night. Parts places closed. But it turns out Sears has parts stores that are open on weekends. Called the Sears parts store on Sunday morning, they had the part, paid about $145 for it. Installation was a snap. Plenty of help online, as well as printed instructions that come with the part.
The hardest part of the job was reinstalling the access panel! Those three little screws are down so low that unless you have tipped your machine back you will find it very challenging to screw them in!
