WM Drain Motor ML-XPQ-6

Description

The ML-XPQ-6 (frequently cross-referenced with the XPQ-6 or XPQ-6A series) is an all-plastic, high-efficiency washing machine drain motor tractor retractor. Built primarily for fully automatic top-loading washing machines, this actuator uses an internal electronic motor drive to retract a steel tension cable. This single-stroke mechanical pull performs two critical functions simultaneously when signaled by the washer’s main PCB: it forces the rubber drain valve open to let out waste water and shifts the clutch assembly to engage the inner drum. Engineered with a specialized, moisture-sealed composite casing, it provides quiet operation and reliable torque to prevent water retention issues and restore normal high-speed spin cycles. Key Features & Specifications Model Designation: ML-XPQ-6 / XPQ-6 Electrical Rating: AC 220V – 240V | 50/60 Hz Chassis Design: All-plastic outer casing (standard mount without an extended metal frame) Traction Type: Steel-core wire pull cable with a universal molded plastic attachment hook Functionality: High-torque, low-noise single-stroke retraction Compatible Machines & Models The ML-XPQ-6 is a highly versatile, multi-brand replacement part that natively fits a wide array of top-loading automatic washers. It is widely used across the following appliance lineups: Haier Fully Automatic Washers: * Direct drop-in match for many core Haier automatic models requiring a 2-wire, plastic-shelled pull tractor. Innovex & Damro Top-Loaders: * Fully compatible with popular Innovex automatic washing machines utilizing the standard under-tub plastic mounting tabs. Abans & Maxmo Washers: * Fits several Abans and Maxmo top-loading variants where the motor body clips directly into a molded plastic frame. Konka Fully Automatic Series: * Serves as an exact exchange unit for Konka xpq-6c2/XPQ-6 series traction devices. 💡 Fitment Check Tip: Unlike the bracketed versions, this ML-XPQ-6 features an all-plastic housing designed to slide directly into pre-molded plastic retaining slots under the wash tub. Before purchasing, look underneath your machine to confirm your broken motor doesn’t use an external steel mounting plate, ensuring a hassle-free swap.
