Bosch Washing Machine Drain Pump & Filter Body

Drain Pump and Filter Body

I brought the drain pump as the one on my Siemens IQ500 washing machine had packed in. I ordered the pump from Ransom Spares and it didn't take long to turn up. I found a video on YouTube that related to a Bosh washing machine that looked similar to my Siemens and I just followed that to disassemble the machine down to the pump. You have to take off the door seal so you will require a handled hook to take the door seal spring off and to refit it. But apart from that its straight forward to get to the pump to remove it and refit. I was in two minds whether to just by the pump on its own for about £10 or buy the pump and the housing for £20. I decided for the latter and I am glad I did as splitting the old pump was a bit of a pain and due to the age of the old housing, the plastic was a bit brittle and I snapped off a lug on the housing. Anyway I found it easy to fit and my washer is working. Excellent service from Ransom Spares as normal and they saved me a lot of money. I hopes this helps someone? Thanks.
