We started receiving an OE error on our LG WM4270HVA washer which advises the machine is not draining properly. The pump is also making a loud noise so I removed the filter and there was a color sheet (sort of like a dryer sheet except for the washer) in the drain filter. I removed that and tried it again and the pump was still making a lot of noise. I have ordered a new one, but wanted to post the attached video to make sure this noise is pointing to a bad pump. Thanks.
