This washing machine pump filter has two pumps attached to it one is for empty the other is for recycling the water into the drum. Tab type pump. No the filter needs a few turns before it can be removed.
I could unscrew it and pull out slightly anticlockwise to drain the water but couldnt actually pull out the whole plug bit. If it wont come out Id disconnect the machine from the mains and maybe the plumbing if the hoses arent long enough and lay it over onto its front where Id try to access the pump from underneath. Push the sealing cap back in.
