LG Tumble Dryer Condenser - How to access drain pump?

[EAST61]

I've got an LG Sensor Dry 8kg RC8015C tumble dryer which has stopped draining the water into the tray.

I suspect that either the drain pump is knackered or the pipe leading from the pump is blocked but I can't work out how to access it.

I think this is the part I need if the pump is knackered:

I've taken off the sides and I can see it - it's right in the middle underneath the drum.

I must be missing something as these are normally easy to access.

Does anyone know how to get to this pump without dismantling the entire appliance?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, already looked.

Only washing machine drain pumps.

Ended up taking the back off and lifting the drum out.

Wasn’t too bad a job after all.
