Problem in Whirlpool washing machine pump AWG052

Hello: I go on to tell you briefly, I have a Whirlpool Awg 052 with a higher load, a few weeks ago, I started to lose some water from the drain pump, until that moment I didn't sporadically spin. 4 years ago I changed the pump for a new one, and the capacitor that is located near that pump, I think is the engine, and began to spin again. Now when I disassembled it to check the hoses and clean the filter tube and place new clamps, directly when I put it to work and it starts to load the water, it immediately loses the water from the pump part, a lot of water and I have to unplug it . I take out the pump, the filter, check it and the pump with the tester gives me 154 ohms, testing at 1 ohm. The pump propeller does not seem to be bad. I wanted to ask if you can guide me what other test to do, how do I measure the two wires that go to the pump to see if they have voltage? It is possible that when I removed the siphon that is attached to the pump, I dropped water and damaged something else. The pressure switch? . A couple of years ago I was watching the timer and cleaned some terminals, to make sure I made contact, the problem is that occasionally it did not spin, now it directly loses the water through the pump when the water load in the washing machine has just begun. I would appreciate any guidance to try something else, thanks !!

Hi, the pump coil is fine. Which does not mean that the pump works well. What you have to check is if the loss is from a broken hose or if the pump has the loss. From what he says I risk that a hose is broken

Thanks for the reply. I also thought that some hose would be broken, however when fixing the connection of the drain hose either, or the transparent filter, which is also connected to a bellows does not lose water, I changed the clamps. Water flows through the pump below and through the part of the filter plug.
It gives the impression that the pump will not work, because when you turn on the washing machine or move, a slight movement was seen before. It is in the water load of the washing machine where it begins to lose from the pump, at the beginning of the cycle.

Remove the cap clean it well and replace it. Also check that there is no crack where the filter is

Dear, the loss of water is not related to electrical problems of the pump. If the hoses are good, it may be that the aerator that goes over the pump nozzle is loose or misplaced. It is the siphon-shaped pipe that is in the left front corner of the machine. Regards

Thank you Luis, I'm about to arm him again, this time with the aerator adjusting him less. I would also like to remove the black pipe, I think it is called bellows, which is just behind a kind of "brick", but I do not know how to disassemble it, the nuts of that piece, I call it brick, I can not take them out. It is to rule out that flexible black that will go to drum or soap is not covered too, thanks !.

I already connected it again, I was right it was the air tube was tighter and in another position, now it does not lose more water when starting the load, it lost a lot of water. I was seeing that the pump filter plug loses a few drops, will I have to change the entire plug or just the Oring? Or could it be a pump malfunction? The hoses do not lose.

Dear, for the years that this machine has, it is possible that the pump filter gasket is very hard and no longer fulfills its function. Regards
