Al December 31, 2012 for Model Number shx46a05uc/14 Water is remaining in the dishwasher and I've checked the drain pump impeller for debris. There are no obstructions and the impeller spins freely. I also hear the drain pump motor activate but no water discharges. I don't hear the expected impeller noise, just a hum. The discharge line is clear and I've verified no blockages. Does this sound like a failed drain pump or are there additional items to check before ordering a replacement?
1 Answer Hello Al, This would be a bad pump 00167082. If the impeller spins freely then the pump has failed, there should be resistance to the impeller like a magnet pulling it back as it spins. Read More...
Bill October 22, 2012 for Model Number shu43c06uc/17 Drain Pump Motor Assembly Part Number: AP2802385 MFG Part Number: 167082. Made by: Bosch. With the toe plate removed the pump motor vibrates and make a whining sound while draining. Other then the dreadful noise, the dishwasher operates fine. I'm 90% sure replacing the pump motor will remedy this issue. The original pump motor has 6 vanes. If I use the "appliance compatibility tool" on the page it states that the part isn't compatible with my model number. Just want to make sure if I order these parts that they will be compatible. 642239 and 623143. Any other gaskets or items that would be prudent to order with the pump motor? Thanks for your time.
1 Answer Hi. Replace W/ 00642239 Pump And TJ661053-or-00623143 Connector 9-vane, 120v (4-vane Pump Is 184178); d/W Drain Pump W/Motor. Thank You. Read More...
Headwaters October 15, 2012 for Model Number SHU9912 UC/U12 I replaced the drain pump with with the recommended part (642239), and the pump is making a lot more noise than the original part. Seems to be draining well (if anything, more efficiently than the original part) but my wife is concerned about/annoyed by the increased noise. Any thoughts?
1 Answer Headwaters, Before you installed the new part, did you check and flush the sump / drain compartment, and checck to make sure there was no debris left in the drain hose. The other ossibility is air or foam in the drain water, That will make a pump noisy as well. Read More...
Marji September 30, 2012 for Model Number Shu53 series Hello! Our dishwasher wasnt draining, so my son and I disassembled it, only to find that a mouse had built a nest which tripped the safety switch inside, the red one that apparently detects water on the inside floor of the unit. In the process of our exploration, we took apart the drain motor to see how it works and make sure it was ok. . When I woke up today, the first thing I thought about was that it was likely a mistake to "clean" the rotating magnet inside. What I am sure we did was remove the lube. We tested the dishwasher and it works fine now. Draining perfectly What we need to do, though, is lube that motor. Any suggestions for lubricant?
1 Answer Hello Marji, The rotating magnet inside the motor should be dry. Since the only friction that should be present is from the magnetic field. the only thing that would necessitate lubrication is the bushings on each end. This uses a light layer of white lube, but you would have to disassemble the motor to get the grease where it needs to be. I do not recommend the dis-assembly of the motor assembly. Read More...
Fred July 20, 2012 for Model Number shu43c06uc/17 I'm replacing the pump in my Bosch, I had a 6 vane and through my dealer I now have a 9 vane. I don't know which tab I should put the grey which has two wires or the tab to put the white wire. The old pump had 4 tabs which only two were used.
1 Answer Hello Fred, Considering the fact that this is an ac motor, the polarity will not matter. The motor will spin the same direction in either case. When a noise filter in installed on the motor, the polarity would matter, but in this case, the motor would have come with specific instructions concerning polarity of the connections or the terminals would be made in a fashion that would prevent the wires from being connected incorrectly.

Jason January 26, 2012 for Model Number shx33A02UC Hello, I am trying to replace the drain pump and am aware that this part is no longer available. My original drain pump has 6 impeller vans like is shown in the picture above. The description for the replacement part only mentions pumps with 4 or 9 vans. I ordered the pump with 4 along with the adapter (AP2806666 and AP5323611). Is this going to work on my model? Would it be better to go with the 9?
1 Answer Hi Jason. The pump that will better work w/ your unit is the 9-vane part # 00642239 with the adapter part # 00623143. This is a customers choice as they can both work. It is a professional opinion that the more vanes therefore the better efficiency of the pump effort. Thank You. Read More...
Warren S January 16, 2012 for Model Number shu9925 uc/12 When I took the drain pump out it came apart and there is water inside. Is this pump lubricated by water or is that part of my problem?
1 Answer Hello Warren. If the water is inside the pump housing, then you will need to replace the pump and motor assembly 00167082. Hope this helps. Read More...
Cathy November 24, 2011 for Model Number shu9915uc/uc11 The drain pump will not stop running. I replaced disposal unit and fear that water backed up into dishwasher. I need to find pump float switch and clean. Any help?
1 Answer Hi Cathy. You will need to remove power. Then turn off the sink hot water supply valve. Then unscrew the dishwasher mounts from the cabinet and pull the unit out. You will need to unhook the water line to allow you to pull out enough. Then you will Remove the screws that will allow you to un fold the base sideways as the clam shell design allows. This will give access to the float switch assy. part # 00165256. There is a float switch lever part # 00263123. Float switch shaft part # 00263122. And the water level regulator part # 00263185. Thank You. Read More...
