The Blower Motor Assembly is an OEM replacement part for LG dishwashers. Located inside the wash cavity, it functions to distribute heated air throughout during the dry cycle. Rapid rotation of the blower motor blades works to eject moisture from dishes and ensure thorough drying.
Causes of a bad blower motor include failure of the motor itself, cracks in the blades that disrupt airflow, or bearing issues preventing proper rotation.
Symptoms include:
- Dishes still feeling damp after a cycle
- Puddles of water remaining in the bottom of the dishwasher
- Water droplets on upper racks/dishes
- The motor producing grinding/squealing noises on startup
It is also compatible with some Kenmore dishwashers using LG components.

Water leak Art D. • Souderton , PA • May 27, 2014
The solenoid that opened the air vent for drying was broken so it was open during the wash cycle allowing water to escape into the air duct.
Found the part at SearsParts and AppliancePartsPro, and Sears was $15 more expensive. I ordered on Friday from AppliancePartsPro and selected standard shipping and the part arrive the next day (Saturday). Amazing service. AppliancePartsPro will be my first stop in the future.
