Benjamin B Prescott Valley , AZ February 02, 2017 Appliance: General Electric Dishwasher PDWT480R10SS The ge profile dishwasher wasn't draining even after i cleaned the traps I had clogs before, so I knew this wasn't the case. When I tried the "rinse and hold" setting, the water would fill, but no sound when it tried to drain. I suspected the pump. Searching through YouTube, I found a helpful video for the GE Profile unit. In fact, the video directed me to this site for parts. It seemed simple enough to replace and I verified the part number to order. I pulled out the dishwasher, laid it on it's side, swapped the part, put it back in, and tested. It now works great and saved me $$ in a service call.

Connie M Rochester , VT October 28, 2016 Appliance: Model GE MONOGRAM Standing water int he bottom of our dishwasher we guessed it was the drain pump WE guessed right and it was easier than we thought! Simply unplugged the wires and unscrewed the clamp and reversed that process to plug in the new pump. We were very excited to not have to pay a plumber!

Paul L Nazareth , PA June 15, 2020 Appliance: General Electric Dishwasher GDWT166V00SS My GE profile dishwasher was not pumping water out of the bottom of the dishwasher. I checked first to make sure all lines were clear first and that the disposal was working properly and not clogged. I went on line and saw a the video on how to easily replace the pump drain assembly myself. Instead of bringing in repair person who may have charged upwards of $75-100 just to look at it then maybe another $100-200 to repair it I fixed it myself with a $64 part. It only took me about one hour to do the entire job from start to finish. The unit works great now. The only issue I have now is the system has a slight "whiny" sound to it during a certain cycle. Not sure if it's due to new pump, but I can live with sound.
