Ron April 05, 2011 for Model Number FDB1500LFS0 Recently my tub doesnt drain the water out. Dishes appear to be getting cleaned fine but the tub is left full of water. I took out the spinner arm and the little screen and checked in there and all appears ok. I also took off the face cover underneath and checked the hoses and they dont seem to be clogged. I ran a short "rinse only" cycle and kept checking under to see if this motor was spinning or running and never saw it turn on. Is this my problem in a bad pump assembly?
1 Answer Hello Ron. You will need to test and see if your getting power to the pump. If so, and the pump is not running, you will need to replace the pump. Hope this helps. Read More...
Dillon March 13, 2011 for Model Number FDBB1940DB40 My dishwasher recently quit washing the dishes. The washer is spraying, but it does not seem to have enough pressure to clean the dishes. I did a test, using lightly soiled dishes on the top and bottom rack (1-2 dishes each rack) and they both came out dirty, but wet. I was wondering if this is the unit the controls water pressure. I was also wondering if you had any other things that could be the problem. the unit is aprox 5 years old.
1 Answer Hello Dillon. First check and make sure the spray arms and sump assembly are clear of debris and cloggs. This part does not control the pressure, it is the drain pump for the machine. Here is the motor that sends the water to the spray arms. 154859101 Hope this helps. Read More...
