picked it up from a friend, wouldnt drain water from the get go, so I bought a new pump and motor, yeah I took the drain line off and made sure it was clear and everything in the bottom of the washer is clear to the pump

Electric connections to the pump aren't backwards are they?
You know the solenoid opens - does the pump then start running? Or the pump doesn't run. Does the washer have a timer in it... like a washing machine?

Maybe transmission isn't moving the drain opener far enough to really open it.... ot a piece of trash from the macerator is not letting it open.....you'll have to pull the pump and that U tube off to see if anything is in there.....chicken bone????

I ended up figuring it out, after looking at the pump and clapper valve, I moved some of the drain and feed lines around and It works. It doesnt look right the way they are going but its pumping.
