How does a Washing Machine Pump Works?
The main thing to know is that the pump runs on mains voltage, and spins an impeller round creating a vortex and expelling water out. It’s an extremely simple part.
A pump is a simple induction motor with an impeller and no serviceable parts. To run the pump, the machine just supplies it with power. The pump impeller just spins round and pumps water out through the waste hose.
The only thing you can test on the motor is the continuity of the field windings across the two connectors use a meter for this, or if the impeller is jammed clear the bits from this and you can check that no hoses are blocked, if the appliance waste hose is fitted to a sink unit check your fittings are not blocked.
Do not test anything with the machine connected to the mains!
What commonly goes wrong when the Washing Machine Pump is faulty?
Before the motor starts to turn, if you can hear a gentle humming noise, this may be a jammed pump trying to turn;
Some obstructions such as socks or a blocked filter don’t stop the impeller from spinning as normal but can prevent or restrict water from flowing through the drain hose;
If the field coil of a water pump goes open circuit, the pump fails to run, and the washing machine may not take in any water;
Washing machine pumps can become noisy if the bearings fail. Nine times out of ten though, a noisy pump is caused by an obstruction colliding with the rotating impeller. This often manifests itself as a grinding, grating sound that can come and go or be constant (depending on the obstruction). If the noise is due to bearing failure then the pump must be replaced.
To replace a Beko washing machine pump might sound scary, but it’s a surprisingly easy to replace and then fit a new pump with the help of our video.
