Dennis December 27, 2017 for Model Number GU2700XTSB1 The unit fills but does not wash, makes hum push cancel/drain it pumps the water out.
1 Answer Dennis, Check to make sure that there is nothing clogged in the circulation motor and if there is not then the motor would most likely be the issue with the unit. Read More...
Richard September 19, 2016 for Model Number Kenmore (Whirlpool) 665.13752K602 I've actually rebuilt the circulation pump motor WPW10757217. The front bearing went out and caused the impellor seal to start leaking on itself or the seal went out and caused the bearing to go bad. It was leaking very slowly on itself for a long time, I noticed oxidation on the front of the pump motor housing around the frozen bearing, so I don't know which came first. I checked the inside of the motor and nothing was damaged. Replaced the front and rear bearings, circlips, and impellor seals. I really had to work the old bearing outer race out of the front motor housing as I did the inner race off of the front end of the shaft with a puller/press, oil, and heat. So in doing this I removed the circulation pump capacitor WPW10334457. I don't know which of the two wires goes where. The capacitor has a 1 or 2 mark above each male connector. There are two capacitor wires, one blue and one yellow. Which male connector is the blue to be attached to and which one to the yellow. There is no tech service sheet on the dishwasher. I did finally find a tech sheet, W10130990, for the dishwasher after a long search on the internet but it is for a few models and wiring colors on the shematics are different.
1 Answer Richard, The blue will go to the number 1 and the yellow will go to the number 2. Read More...
Ed August 26, 2016 for Model Number Whril[pool DU1145XTPBA Whirpool #DU1145XTPBA dishwasher making whining noise when washing but not when draining. I have cleaned out sump area and replaced food grinder. Dishes are coming out clean, but wonder if if a bearing is going out in the motor-pump assembly?
1 Answer Hello Ed. It is possible if the noise is coming from the circulation pump on the unit. Read More...
Bill July 16, 2016 for Model Number KUDK031TBT2 Water goes into bottom of machine with enough pressure to spin the arm, but not enough to spin top arms. Is it possibly the circulation pump.
1 Answer Hello Bill. Make sure the filters are clean and the water level is good. If so, then look at the spray arms and make sure they are not cracked. If everything is good, replace the circulation pump on the unit. Read More...
Bill July 16, 2016 for Model Number KUDK031TBT2 Water goes into machine but seems to never go to the top arms. When finished any water on the bottom drains. Is it the circulation motor
1 Answer Bill, It is probably not the circulation motor. It's most likely a lack of water in the tub. Start the dishwasher in a regular cycle, allow the dishwasher to fill and wash for a few minutes(3 to 5 minutes), unlatch the door, remove the lower rack and check the water level and temperature in the bottom of the tub. The water level in the center of the tub should be 3/4 to 1 inch deep or approx. 1/4 inch below the bottom of the heater element. The water temperature needs to be 120 dgrs.F. on the first fill of the cycle. As in most cases, if the water level is not correct, you'll most likely need to replace the water inlet valve WPW10158389. Read More...
David S May 05, 2016 for Model Number GU3200XTPB3 My GU3200XTPB3 Whirlpool dishwasher, would not turn on, and the "Clean" indicator keeps on Blinking. P.S. My area has a very high level of hard water. What could be wrong with this machine, and how would you suggest to solve it?
1 Answer David, The clean light flashing is an indication that there is a problem with the heating circuit. You will want to test the heater to make sure that it has continuity. If there is continuity then test the thermostat and check wiring back up to the control board from the heater. If this checks ok then the control board would be the issue. Read More...
David March 14, 2016 for Model Number 665.17572202 Kenmore Elite Dishwasher (Model: 665.17572202) fills with water. Sometimes it washes normally but other times it shuts off immediately when attempting to wash or circulate. No lights or error codes. Pressed START again and it shut off again immediately when attempting to wash. Was able to get it to wash normally after 3 or 4 attempts of pressing START. When it runs, everything seems normal (dishes are clean, drains normal, heats normal). I'm guessing I need to replace the circulating pump. What is your recommendation?
1 Answer Hello David. Based on the information you provided it sounds like the control panel WP8530851 is bad and will need to be replaced on the unit. Read More...
Ken January 25, 2016 for Model Number kuds30Ixss-4 I have replaced the control board twice already. Recently we realized the dishes in the top rack are not being cleaned as if no water at all is reaching them and the dishes in the bottom rack are barely cleaned. After a complete cycle we also noticed that although the soap dispenser is open, that some detergent remains inside the dispenser and there remains detergent on the door itself and on the base of the dishwasher, as if very little water is circulating during a run. I replaced the water inlet valve but problem persists. I took the arms apart and all the assemblies checking for clogged holes etc, but all is clean, unclogged. When it runs, it appears from the sounds that it goes through all its cycles (I never opened the door during the cycles), no loud grinding noise, plates are hot and unit even steamy when opened at end of cycle. Is the issue my motor?
1 Answer Hello Ken, This sounds like the chopper W10083957V has an issue. I would check it and if no problem exists, replace the sump and motor assembly WPW10780877. Read More...
John January 09, 2016 for Model Number KUDI02IRWH2 My dishwasher has been getting progressively louder. And I believe it's my circulation pump that's going bad. I checked the chopper/grinder and it was very clean and nothing was stuck in it. And I see in order to order a Circulation Pump and motor assembly you need the model number. It's KUDI02IRWH2. Is the price the same as what's listed for the circulation pump or is it more? Thanks.
1 Answer John, The part number for the circulation pump is WPW10757217. The complete pump and motor assembly is part number WPW10780877. Read More...
