Lisa E June 20, 2018 for Model Number KDTE104ESS1 My kitchen aid is about a year and half old.. Dishes are not getting clean. Took apart and cleaned filters. Unit seems to be working normal, sounds normal, drains normal. But the washer arms are not spinning. Is it possible something diverter motor can I take it apart and clean. also does this unit have a chopping blade I can check?
1 Answer Lisa, The unit does not appear to have a chopper blade but if it does it would be in the circulation pump. This issue sounds more likely that the diverter motor is faulty and would need replaced. Read More...
Robert June 06, 2018 for Model Number 665.12773k310 Kenmore elite dishwasher only 4 years old. Water dripping from diverter motor and has caused excessive corrosion in the wire connector. Also the dishwasher is not as quiet as it once was. Is there a part number for a complete pump sump assy or do I need to get all parts individual.
1 Answer Robert, You would have to get the sump housing WPW10455268 and diverter motor W10537869 for this issue. Read More...
Rob March 03, 2018 for Model Number IBC Heartware inc. The diverter motor leaks. I watched the video and looks like easy swap out, but do I just need to replace the seal and didn't look like the seal came with the replacement motor?
1 Answer Rob, The seal does not come with the motor and would need to be replaced. The seal comes as part of the sump housing for the unit. Read More...

Travis January 21, 2018 for Model Number WDT780SAEM1 I don't have a question but wanted to post a DIY story and something that might be helpful on this particular part thread. My dishwasher was leaking right around the diverter motor. I replaced the diverter motor thinking that was the problem but when I got in there, I saw the rubber grommet and I figured that was the problem. I went ahead and replaced the motor but the leak continued. The manufacturer discontinued selling the $5 grommet because they are evil :-) and instead only sold the entire sump which was a pain to replace and $50 to boot. Before I went that route, I removed the diverter motor and then treated the grommet with Permatex spray sealant from inside of the dishwasher. I put 5 coats which took about 10 minutes as you only wait about a minute between coat. After about 30 minutes, I also turned the dishwasher over and sprayed the sealant from the bottom a couple of coats as well. Then let it sit overnight. I reinstalled the diverter motor and ran the dishwasher through a couple of cycle the next day and not a leak in sight. Not sure how long this fix will hold but think it's a worth a shot. This stuff has worked good on a oil leak underneath an old car I had so I assume it will last some time. Worse case scenario, you end up replacing the entire sump anyways so this is at least worth a shot before going that route. Certainly won't hurt anything other than the sump you'll already be replacing and is leaking anyways. Good luck!
Ap5806677 January 19, 2018 for Model Number KDTM354DSS3 My KitchenAid dishwasher, Model KDTM354DSS3, is leaking down the shaft of the diverter motor. The model number of the motor is W10476222. It looks like the grommet needs to be replaced. Can you tell me the part number for the grommet which fits this dishwasher and motor?
1 Answer Hello AP5806677, I'm sorry but the grommet WPW10195677 is no longer available without ordering the complete pump and motor assembly W10805015. Read More...
Tim November 06, 2017 for Model Number WDT720PADM3 Behaves normally through filling with water. Then there is just a very quiet click sound that repeats every 5 seconds or so but there is no washing. It will advance normally through the cycles (e.g. draining and filling) but no washing. Where do I start looking for the problem?
1 Answer Tim, This unit has a diverter motor on it and you will want to check to make sure that it is working properly as this will be the most likely cause for this failure. Read More...
Ellery Smith October 29, 2017 for Model Number 66513032k113 Diverter motor is leaking culprit looks to be the grommet, will WPW10195677 work for a Whirlpool 66513032k113? Also the washer appears to be cycling normal does the motor always need replaced once a seal goes bad?
1 Answer Ellery, Yes, you will eventually need to replace the diverter motor. There are miniature sensors and switches inside the assembly, that will fail eventually because of the water/moisture from the leak. The WPW10195677 / WPW10195677 would work in your dishwasher, but it is no longer available to AppliancePartsPros.com from the manufacturer. The diverter motor, part number W10537869 / W10537869 is in stock and available. the WPW10455268 / WPW10455268 Sump (with the seal/grommet ) is in stock and available, if you can't find the seal as a separate component.

Marty October 25, 2017 for Model Number 665.13043K114 Hi- My dishwasher is leaking. The diverter motor has white gunk all over its center. When I grabbed the diverter motor and slightly twisted it, water poured out. I ordered a diverter motor. Was this enough or should I have ordered a seal and/or a sump? Dishwasher model-665.13043K114
1 Answer Marty, Water inside or accumulated in the diverter assembly, would indicate a water leak in the seal/grommet. Unfortunately the W10195677 grommet, is no longer available from the manufacturer as an individual part. You will need to order the WPW10455268 / WPW10455268 Sump to receive the grommet / seal and stop the leak. Read More...
