FILTER-FLUFF
Part #00647920
This washer drain pump filter, also called a fluff filter or coin trap, is designed to capture lint, small debris, and stray items before they reach the drain pump, protecting the system from clogs and ensuring smooth, efficient draining. By keeping the pump clear, it helps maintain strong water flow and reduces strain on internal components, contributing to better washing performance and longer appliance life. A failing or clogged filter can lead to slow draining, water left in the tub, excess lint on clothing, or unusual noises during the drain cycle. The filter is designed for easy removal and cleaning, and replacing a damaged one restores proper protection and drainage. Installation generally involves accessing the filter housing, removing the old unit, and securing the new one in place.

My husband replaced the condenser fan. It took awhile and a few choice words but he got it replaced. The fan seemed to work fine, but it still wasn't cooling. I noticed that when we had the fridge unplugged that water started draining out the dials at the top of the fridge under the freezer. And there was absolutely no water at all in the drip pan under the fridge. So I took the doors off and totally took the inside of the freezer apart. I discovered that the styrofoam on the floor of the freezer had become inudated with fluid and the under the foam the coils were all frozen solid with ice. Hence not allowing any drainage. I put a lamp in the freezer area and defrosted all the ice. In searching the internet i discovered that they no longer produce the foam so i went to home depot and got a piece of foam and aluminum foil and cut it to replace the ruined foam. I put the fridge all back together said a prayer and crossed my fingers and lo and behold it works perfectly now!!!!
