Possible there is dirt in the drain which seems to clog on the drain pump /valve and so when the drain cycle is activated the pressure makes the noise on the pump.
Check for tips to remove the Pump;
Hi just read your posting.Unless the machine shows an error code the diagnostic mode will not help.Does the machine agitate in the wash cycle?Does the machine drain the water completely?Does the machine spin the clothes dry.Please reply with additional information on the questions I have posted and I am sure I can help you rectify this fault.Looking forward to your reply.
Error code 37 is pump blocked (or faulty) 'No change in water level.' Most likely you have a blocked or faulty pump motor (Not uncommon with F&P)
Thw pump motor is accessable from under the machine.
NOTE.. The machine must be empty before attempting this job.
TIP.. Lean machine back against the wall to contain the last of the water.
Make sure the 'latch' is unclipped to remove the pump motor. Turn anticlockwise to remove
Remove wires..
Check that the drain hole has nothing to prevent the impeller from turning.
Check that the pump motor turns freely..
Blow through the drain hose (from the basin end) to make sure there is no blockage..
Replace in reverse order..
If the problem persists you may need a new pump motor. These are normally checked for resistance. F&P say to replace if less than 33 ohm.
Good luck....Nomess
Sounds like the pump. When it first fills the pump recirculates the water, then it comes on at the end of each cycle to drain the water. The pump is on the bottom of the machine, on the right side.
We took the housing off the washer and started the machine, albeit carefully, and followed the squeal. Sounded like the water pump thingy in the front. Took that off from the machine but still connected to the hoses and the squeal stopped. Dipped and drained machine, removed water pump thingy and looked inside. Found a really beat up hairpin/bobby pin lodged inside! (I have two teen daughters at home) Removed pin, put back together, and wah-lah, a few hundred dollar miracle, no squeal!
