1 Answer Brian, Find the tech sheet in the kick panel and put the unit into diagnostics and check for error codes. This is the first thing you will want to do. Read More...
Tom July 12, 2022 for Model Number WDF330PAHS3 Dishwasher fills, pauses but doesn't wash. no flashing led to indicate a trouble code. will drain when cancel button pushed. Checked float switch, good. checked F600 & F601 fused on control board with multimeter, good. guessing pump/motor assy bad? did not check for power at pump/motor... thinking drain ing uses the same pump.. im stuck thanks
1 Answer Tom, I would check for power to the wash motor during the wash part of the cycle. You should have 120vac at the P5-1 to the P5-2. Read More...
Vince June 29, 2021 for Model Number ADB1400AGW1 After pressing start, blue lights come on, water fills, but no noise. After 1 hour, the light blinks - but dishes are still dirty and the soap is not dispensed. Obvious that no water was circulated. No noise except water filling in the beginning. The drain pump works. Would rather not replace the pump if it's only a fuse or some other part. What is the likely culprit or should I change a bunch of stuff to get it all in one shot?
1 Answer Hello Vince, You should use an ac test meter to check for 120Vac to the motor on the two light blue wires. If there is 120Vac testing from one wire to the other while the unit should be running, the issue will be the motor W11612326. If not, the control board W10906422 would be the issue. Read More...
Steve August 23, 2020 for Model Number Kenmore 66513803N710 dishwasher Neither arm moves. Fills with water but I do not hear the "washing: sound. During my troubleshooting I put both arms in the same position and turned the unit on, wait a minute or two and checked. Arms did not move. I then bypassed the door lock and watched, Nothing! We had have a few electrical storms lately, so how do I figure out if it is the pump or the "timer" of the machine that is bad or could it be something else? Thank you, the machine is three years old.
1 Answer Hello Steve, using a multimeter check for 120v to the circulation motor after the tub fills with water, should have 120v from the control board. Read More...
Jon July 01, 2020 for Model Number WDF330PAHW2 Washer is only about 1 1/2 yrs. old. Runs, but just isn't cleaning. When I open the door when running, only bottom arm is moving a little. Repairman came and said the pump is bad. I looked up the pump on your site and I think I need p# AP6027386 for $181.55. But why is the pump alone $11 more than the pump and bottom assembly and which do I need?
1 Answer Jon, the pricing of a part is influenced by the manufacturer. As such, it is usually easiest to replace the entire pump and motor assembly W11025157 as it includes new gaskets that would need to be purchased separately if just replacing the motor W11612326 by itself. Read More...
Joe February 17, 2020 for Model Number GUD24ESSJ0WW Washer doesn't complete the cycle. Stops and rinse light flashes. If I open the lid & close it. It will complete the cycle. Please advise.
1 Answer Joe, this error is going to indicate a lid lock failure. This can be tested by verifying if the control sends 120VAC to the lock using connection J7 pin 2. If 120VAC is sent as the unit attempts to go into agitate or spin and fails to lock, the lock solenoid has weakened. The lid lock WH44X10288 would then need to be replaced. Read More...
