Dora for Model Number Kenmore Elite Followed online tutorial on dishwasher because dishes were not clean. All went well until reassembly. The chopper assembly is making horrible noise when running dishwasher. Is there a trick to getting the chopper assembly back in correct position? Additionally, it does seem chopper assembly is in good condition,
Answer Dora, Yes, there are several things to check and verify when you replace the chopper screen and blade. When you removed the original screen, you need to check the tabs in the cenetr of the impeller 8193951A (black area) make sure the tabs are not damaged or worn. The tabs on the back side of the chopper blade/screen have to engage the tabs on the impeller, in order to drive the blade and cut up the soft food particles. You also need to check and make sure there is nothing inside the impeller housing, that will create a noise as well. The screen and chopper blade do have to be installed properly and then the protector WP8531857 needs to be installed after you're sure the screen and blade are installed and engaged the tabs of the impeller.
