Do-It-Yourself Story

It was a fairly easy repair. My dishwasher had the permanent hose clamps on the pump motor’ hose so fitting a Dremel tool with a cutting blade in the tight area where the hose is mounted was a small challenge. The replacement screw clamps purchased along with the other parts fit fine. I wasn’t sure that I couldn’t have just gotten auto store clamps, but after seeing how and where they fit in a hose with molded connection points and alignment protrusions I was glad I bought these. The advice on the videos about wetting the seals to lubricate and assist with installation isn’t just a suggestion. I don’t think I could have gotten the sump seated without that seal being wet. The diverter motor has two torx screws holding it on. That’s noted in the video but you should be sure that tool is available before starting the repair.
