Use this guide to remove and replace the drain hose in your LG WM3050CW washing machine.
The washer drains wastewater out through the drain hose. The hose is a single piece of hose that's connected to the drain pump inside the washer. To replace it, you'll have to access the washer internals.
The metal ring holding the rubber boot can be difficult to reinstall. You can buy this tool to make the reinstallation easier, or ask additional people to help.
