How to Troubleshoot & Replace Whirlpool AP6023350 / WPW10605057 Pump And Motor Assembly

Removed old original (2015) pump assembly and replaced with new. Installed new pump assembly in place of failed pump assembly. I followed YouTube instructions which showed all steps to take. Thanks for having the right part for my dishwasher.

Repair went splendidly. My only regret is paying a guy $80 to come out and tell me it would cost another $350 to do it before biting the bullet and attempting it myself. Still, I've only down about $200 and I don't have to buy another dishwasher for the time being, so I'm very happy. I suspect the dubious quality of Whirlpool's parts will have me doing this again in a couple years if I'm unlucky. If I have to do this 3 more times, It'll still be cheaper than buying a new dishwasher of the "same quality". Even without printed instructions, this repair is pretty straightforward especially if you did the install yourself and are familiar with that aspect of it. I do recommend taking pics of the wire routing to all of the different components on the pump/motor assembly before you start disconnecting everything. It took me about 40 minutes since it was my first time fixing a dishwasher (or any appliance for that matter). If I had to do it again I could probably knock it out in 15 minutes. If I was charging $1 a minute like the repair company I had over to diagnose the issue and give an estimate, it would probably take 3 hours. Maybe 5. 

I bought this whole assembly and disconnected the bottom and carefully pulled it out from the inside. Carefully clipped back in the electrical connectors and slipped it back in and ran it with the bottom panel off to check for leaks. Everything works great and overall install was under an hour. AppliancePartsPros.com was the best deal and parts fit perfectly. 

After about 2 years of use, our KitchenAid dishwasher KDTE104ESS1 was not washing dishes. It was leaving dirty dishes with partially dissolved detergent packets on the bottom of the washer after running an entire cycle. Dishwasher was wet on the inside and steaming if I opened it during or immediately after a cycle, so I determined it was likely the motor or pump that was broken. Ordered the entire assembly for repair, and it appears to have fixed the problem. The repair took about 1.5 hours. I had to remove the dishwasher from under the counter and turn it on it's back to replace the assembly. Removing and reinstalling the machine was the majority of the time -- replacing the actual part was fairly quick. There are videos available with detail for replacing the pump (part W11032770), replacing the entire assembly is basically the same process with a few more wires. 

Considered buying a new dishwasher but considering I had just spent $750 on this one a few years ago I was a little hesitant to pay another $800 or more for a new one. Bought the pump assembly from Appliancepartspros for $150 including one day shipping, install was fairly easy, dishwasher works like a dream. 

The chat with a pro ,was spot on when we went through troubleshooting the unit. Not only proved that the pump motor went bad by using a meter, she also steered me to the most bang for my buck on ordering the whole sump assembly with pump motor and diverter and new sump with new rubber. Made the whole repair simple and effortlessly ..no cussing allowed.Thanks for the help. I couldn't do the repair without your help .. I now always tell people about appliance parts pro. Thanks Kris E. 

I ordered this replacement pump and motor from appliancepros. It arrived very quickly and luckily there was an installation video for this particular pump and motor assembly. The new parts fixed my problem, easy to install too (luckily for me there was a youtube vid available) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtrKUFMT9BM 

I installed a new sump assembly. 

Replace the pump and motor assembly. Perfect fit and the videos were excellent. We highly recommend AppliancePartsPro.com
