The other day well I was moving my washing machine I forgot to disconnect the black drainage hose from the plastic pipe coming out of the back of the washing machine and it cracked. It's cracked pretty close to the back plate of the washing machine but looks like it may be fixable. Does anyone know of any good plastic glue or how hard it would be to replace the whole pipe or if its even possible?

Dependant on your machine, That tube may be part of the pump cover. If so, I would suggest replacing the pump housing.


Make and Model #?

The drain hose goes directly to pump. Best to replace with a new one. Maytag part # 22003410. Around $20.00.

http://www.partwizard.net/product/113198/ Is what I found but I'm not sure if it's the right part. In the washer it's just one firm pipe that comes from the pump out the back and then bends.

I circled around the break.

Would the tube work to just connect it to the pump and replace the white one?

That pic looks like the older style Maytag. Not your model. I looked your model # up at apwagner.com. It shows the drain hose as you explained. Out the bottom back & up the outside of washer.
