H0020813720 Genuine Pump Filter Cap for Fisher & Paykel Front Load Washing Machines WH7560J1 WH7560P1 WH8060P1 WH8560J1 WH8560P1

H0020813720 is the genuine Fisher & Paykel pump filter cap for front load washing machines, often called the lint filter. It's the twist-out trap that sits behind the small flap at the bottom front of the machine. It fits the WH7560 range in J1 to J3 and P1 to P3 versions, the WH8060P1 and P2, and the WH8560 J and P models. Order one if the old cap is cracked, lost or no longer seals.

Fisher & Paykel front loader not draining or leaking at the front

Water pumped out of the drum passes through this filter on its way to the drain pump. It catches coins, hair clips, buttons and lint that would otherwise jam or damage the pump. When the trap gets packed, the washer can stop draining, leave water sitting in the drum or show a drain error. If the cap is cracked or its seal has worn, water can weep out from the bottom front corner of the machine. Cleaning the filter every few months helps, and a cap that's damaged, warped or missing should be replaced.

Cleaning and replacing the filter cap

Turn the washer off at the wall first. There will be water behind the cap, so lay down towels and have a shallow tray ready. Open the flap, unscrew the old cap slowly and let the water drain out. Clear any debris from the housing, screw the new cap in firmly until it stops, then run a rinse and drain cycle and check for leaks.
