Whirlpool Washer Pump (W10876600)

The Whirlpool Washer Pump moves water out of the washer tub during drain and spin cycles. It pulls water from the sump and pushes it through the drain hose so the machine can complete rinses, drain fully, and reach proper spin speed.

Common failures include a worn or seized impeller, a damaged pump housing, or an internal blockage from coins, buttons, lint, or debris. Leaks can occur from cracked plastic, a failing seal, or damage around hose ports. Electrical failure can also stop the motor from running, which leaves water in the tub.

These symptoms can help you decide if this pump matches the issue:

- Water remains in the tub after the drain cycle

- Washer stops mid-cycle and will not drain

- Humming or buzzing during drain with little or no water movement

- Slow draining that leads to long cycle times

- Grinding, rattling, or unusual noise during drain or spin

- Water leaking from the bottom of the washer near the pump area

- Intermittent draining that works sometimes and fails other times
