You may need to remove the front panel like on my Frigidare washer. Removing the retaining spring ring holding the seal may be tricky.
I learned from watching a repairman do it.

My filter got clogged because the drum impellers tend to break a piece and let change and stuff go to the filter.

Remove bottom kick panel in front. Drain pumps typically have screw in filters that can be removed and cleaned

SOURCE: Where is the pump/filter located on my Kenmore Front Loader Washe

It is just behind the lower panel. Remove the 3 screws from the lower panel (the panel just below the door), the screws are on the lip on the bottom of the panel facing the front of the machine. Pull down and toward you to get the panel off. The filter and clean out are in the center. Unscrew the cap to remove and clean out, but have lots of towels ready, there will be water coming out.

If you are talking about the drain pump strainer, you need to remove the lower front panel. should be 3 screws on the bottom facing forward. Once you have that off, the pump strainer is almost in the center, facing you. unscrew it counterclockwise to remove.

Head over to the manufacture's website.

Typically - they have a SUPPORT section that you enter your full model number in, and you can download the manual for free.

SOURCE: Hi, I have an Electrolux EWF 1074 front loader.

Go back and check your connections. If you had the machine working previously and none of these issues were there before you cleaned out the drain area of the unit then your first step would be to check the connection to the pump as well as your connections going from the control to the door area as well. If after you have checked all your connections to the pump the door lock assembly, the control and the touch pad the unit is still doing the same thing then message me back. Before you do any of the checking of connections in the unit first hold down delay and extra rinse buttons together for 3-5 seconds. This usually will unlock the control if the control is locked on the unit. Also if the delay and extra rinse and the checking of your connections does not solve your issue then also message me back with the number of times the pause button is flashing and how often it flashes as well. If you have any further questions message me those back as well. I await your reply Thanks again Rick
