Frigidaire 154859201 Circulation Pump Motor Kit OEM Part

Because the dishwasher made noise only when washing or rinsing, and not when filling, the problem was correctly diagnosed as a faulty circulation pump. Although not difficult, it took more time to remove the dishwasher from under the counter and to reinstall it (approximately one hour) than it took to swap out the circulation pump (5 minutes). The pump swap involved only 2 mounting screws and an electrical connection plug. The pump was ordered on Saturday, shipped on Monday, and received in Palm Desert, California on Tuesday.

Replaced motor. Hardest part was getting dishwasher out from spot under cabinet, a foot caught on a crack in the floor. Once the dishwasher was out it took all of five minutes to swap out the bad motor with the good. And that included the time to put the dishwasher back under cabinet. Super easy repair and part arrived super quick as well. I only had to hand-wash dishes one day while waiting for part. Ordered on Sunday arrived on Wednesday. Always a pleasant experience to deal with you guys.

Replaced the circulation motor. Replaced drain motor

First, the symptoms: No problems while filling; no problems while draining. If I opened the door when the screech began, I could see the wash arm spin to a stop. I knew the wash arm is driven only by water pressure, so that pointed to the circulation pump that pushes water during the wash cycle. I purchased my part and went to work. The repair was pretty straightforward using an instructional video. The old pump came apart in two pieces on removal, so that took a little extra work. The electrical connector didn't match the connector on the new pump, so I had to do a little splicing, but all the necessary parts were included. The first test cycle I tried after reassembly was a little noisy, but I realized it was because there weren't any loaded dish racks in it to absorb the normal vibration. Loaded it up and it runs fine!
