This Part Fixes These Problems

Will Not Drain

Water remains standing in the drum after the cycle ends; the pump motor is burned out or the impeller is jammed, preventing water from being expelled through the drain hose.

Noisy During Drain / Spin

Clicking, humming, or grinding sounds during the drain cycle indicate a failing pump motor or debris caught in the impeller — replacing the assembly eliminates the noise.

Water Leaking from Bottom

Cracked pump housing or a failed pump seal allows water to leak from the bottom-front of the washer, especially during or after the drain cycle.

Washer Pumps But Won't Spin

If the control board detects a drain fault (pump running but no flow), it may prevent the spin cycle from starting; a new pump restores proper drain confirmation and allows spin to proceed.

Standing Water / Not Cleaning Properly

Slow or partial drainage leaves detergent residue and soil in the drum, resulting in poor wash performance and odor — a fully functional pump ensures complete water removal every cycle.

Product Description

Why Choose Our WH11X29539 Drain Pump & Filter Assembly?

🔧
Built to OEM SpecificationsRated 120V, 60Hz, 1.2A with a 10-min ON / 50-min OFF duty cycle — identical to the original GE WH11X29539 factory spec. Drop-in fit, no modifications required.
🛡️
Supersedes Both WH11X29539 & WH11X39237WH11X29539 has been superseded by WH11X39237. Our part is cross-compatible with both numbers, covering the full model range without any additional adapters.
💧
Integrated Debris FilterThe built-in filter screens lint, coins, and debris out of the drain path, protecting the impeller and preventing future pump failures — a complete pump + filter assembly in one unit.
⚙️
Wear-Resistant Polymer HousingPrecision-engineered with reinforced polymer components that resist cracking during installation and long-term operation, delivering reliable service cycle after cycle.
🔌
Broad GE Front-Load CompatibilityFits GFW510, GFW550, GFW650, GFW655, GFW850, PFW870, PFW950, PFQ83H, and PFQ97H series front-load washers — one of the widest compatibility ranges available for this pump.
✅
Factory-Tested Before ShipmentEvery unit undergoes functional testing to verify motor operation, impeller rotation, and seal integrity before it leaves the warehouse — so you get a part that works on the first install.

💡 Pro Tip: How to Confirm Your Drain Pump Has Failed

Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:

⚠️ Washer will not drain — water remains standing in the drum after the cycle ends

⚠️ Unusual humming, buzzing, or clicking noise during the drain or spin phase

⚠️ Visible water leaking from the bottom front of the machine near the pump access door

⚠️ Drainage-related error codes displayed on the control panel (e.g., drain fault)

Before replacing the pump, remove the filter access cap at the bottom-front of the washer and check for lodged debris (coins, hairpins). If the impeller spins freely but the motor hums without pumping, the motor windings are likely burned — replace the full assembly. Always have towels and a shallow pan ready; residual water will drain when hoses are disconnected.

Questions & Answers

Is WH11X29539 the same as WH11X39237?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Mar 10, 2025
Yes. WH11X29539 has been superseded by WH11X39237. GE updated the part number as part of a running design change, but the replacement is a direct, drop-in fit for all models that originally called for WH11X29539. Our aftermarket assembly is cross-compatible with both numbers.
What washer series does WH11X29539 fit?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jul 18, 2024
This pump fits GE front-load washer series GFW510, GFW550, GFW650, GFW655, GFW850, PFW870, PFW950, PFQ83H, and PFQ97H. Please confirm your full model number (found on the label inside the door or on the back of the washer) before ordering. You can also send us your model number and we will verify compatibility.
My GE washer shows a drain error code but isn't making noise — is it the pump?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Nov 5, 2024
Not always. First check for a clogged filter: open the bottom-front access door, slowly remove the filter cap, and inspect for coins, lint, or debris. If the filter is clear but the washer still won't drain, the pump motor is likely failed (it will often hum without moving water, or be completely silent). In that case, replacing the full pump and filter assembly resolves the error.
Do I need any special tools to install this drain pump?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Sep 22, 2023
No special tools are required. A Phillips screwdriver, a flat-head screwdriver, and pliers are sufficient for most GFW-series models. Have towels or a shallow pan ready to collect water when you disconnect the hoses. Installation typically takes 20–35 minutes and is DIY-friendly — many customers complete it without professional assistance.
What are the electrical specifications of the WH11X29539 drain pump?
Answered by Support Team  ·  Jan 14, 2026
The pump is rated at 120 Volts, 60 Hz, 1.2 Amps. The duty cycle is 10 minutes ON and 50 minutes OFF — matching the original GE OEM specification. This rating applies to both WH11X29539 and its successor WH11X39237.
