Try pulling the knob out & rotating counter-clockwise to unscrew it.

SOURCE: cant remove the pump to change a belt

I ended up breaking the pump. I found that there is no real trick, it just gets stuck on sometimes. I worked on removing it very carefully for a couple hours but in the end the plastic cracked and needed replaced. The pump cost me $48 to replace and then the rest was easy

I had the same issue last year on y lwa50aw. It is the timer. Get the speedqueen version it is about $50 -$80 and aboyt 15 minutes to replace.

Possible failure of the timer switch or the controller unit. Need to replace .
