Roger M. for Model Number KUDM01TJBL0 My dishwasher would partially fill but would not circulate, (or go into wash mode). I felt the Circulation Motor and it was very hot. Why did it not blow the fuse, or is their a fuse in this circuit? This happened several times.
Answer Hi Roger. Did your circulation motor get clogged internally,causing a siphon lock ? There is a motor overload protector that should open the circuit to the motor if it overheats or draws too many amps. If your motor windings are weak and internally short (when hot), It will physically get hot also. You said it only partially filled. If the float stuck out of position on the level switch, then possibly it will not allow the water valve to be engaged for a complete water fill, and causing issues. This part # is 8193506. If the pump motor is bad this part # is WPW10757217. Thank you. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Friday, July 22, 2011
