Frigidaire 154757901 Dishwasher Drain Pump Assembly OEM Part

At first, I felt there was a problem with the drain hose. Possibly water would not completely drain out due to a poor routing of the drain hose. It seemed fine - I ensured that I had a 32-ince rise and then a good down hill route to the drain. My drain hose does not drain into the garbage disposal. Then I ran a series of manual relay checks for each component. I had replaced the level sensor sometime in the past; so, I figured that was functioning properly. Why would the rinse cycle seem to function properly, but no matter which wash cycle was selected - water was still in the sump? I found the Service Data Sheet for my particular dishwasher online. I ran numerous cycles and monitored each phase. When a drain phase was triggered, I heard the drain valve actuate and the drain pump would intermittently not function at all. It seemed as if either the thermal overload on the pump motor was kicking out or the actual pump motor was going and/or the control board was malfunctioning. Since I was able to test the various components via the 'Relay Test Mode,' it appeared to me that the control board was functioning properly. To be on the cost effective side - the option was to first go for the electro-mechanical item. I, took the bottom off and looked to see the condition of the pump and the hoses. The pump physically looked okay no leaks, but I felt the hose between the pump and the drain valve should be replaced - the rubber was deteriorated at the pump - the dishwasher is six years old; so I ordered a new drain pump and hose. After receiving the pump and hose, I immediately replaced them. The first cycle was a quick wash cycle. The sump was empty at the end of the cycle! I was elated, but not 100% satisfied; it took eight more various wash cycles with an empty sump at the end before it sunk in that it was finally fixed.

I have an Electrolux dishwasher it's hard to find someone who will serve that brand. I decided to repair it myself I chose AppliancePartsPros.com because of the return policy and the pictures that are available of the parts on line, it was the exact pump that I was replacing. I used a wet dry vacuum to get rid of the standing water in the dishwasher, using common sense and taking pictures before you start taking things apart will make your job a lot easier. Buy a new water line and new wire nuts (electrical tape on the wire nuts) whenever working on your machine don't forget to level out the feet while you're doing this project last thing you want is your machine leaning towards the door possible water leak. The hard part about this repair is this machine sits low to the floor it’s hard to bring the water line & power up front. I tied strings to both so I was able to pull the water line and power after the dishwasher was in place.

Unhooked the dishwasher water and electricity. Turned the washer on its side, removed the bottom panel, located and replaced the drain pump. Required removing 7 screws and 3 hose clamps in all - easy peasy and it works!

Removed the machine from under the counter. Replaced each of the parts starting with the circulation pump. The circulation pump mounting plate should also be replaced because this part is very flimsy and the mounting screw holes are easily stripped during the process. You will need a torx bit set.
