Thats exactly how I did my buddies, then once the water was drained I could reach in there and spin the impeller. Once I freed it up as it was pretty stuck we re-installed the cap and ran it again and it has worked great and pumps fine now.@ttmott Great info, thx!
I did drain the water through that location you showed...mine is a bit older. Here I am draining the drum (took about 50 little tupperware pan loads...lol)
I didn't have time to investigate much as it was late so I ran the dryer for 15 mins and called it good.
The unit runs fine until it has to drain, then it just sits there. Once drained, it drys. I haven't gotten a spin out of it. I can't see how to get at anything without pulling the unit, and the manufacturer says they don't make the pump anymore. I thought I had found one on-line but it may have been wrong.
Gonna tinker a bit more and see if can get it going without a major project, but if I'm gonna wrestle it out, I might just put a new unit back in.
