Sandy December 23, 2013 for Model Number GU2276XTVY0 My dishwasher does not spray out of the top arms it seems to be working on the bottom one though. Do you think it could be the circulation pump. I already took it all apart and cleaned it all out so I know there are not any clogs in the unit.
1 Answer Hello Sandy, You need to replace the chopper assembly W10083957V in the unit. When it fails, the screen stops up and water pressure cannot get up into the unit. Read More...
John December 21, 2013 for Model Number kud523hbwh0 My Kitchenaid dishwasher does not seem to be washing the dishes any more always need to put the back in for another wash, there is no abnormal noises just not washing the dishes. Is there someway I can check the pump, maybe by dead heading the pump?
1 Answer Hello John, This is normally not caused by the pump but by the heating circuit. You see, if th4e unit never reaches 140°F, it will never activate the chemical reaction in the detergent and the dishes will never get clean. Check the heating element, the door switches, the high limit thermostat, and if none of these show an issue, you either have an issue with the wiring harness or the electronic control. Read More...
Ken P. November 07, 2013 for Model Number Kitchen Aid KUDK03TWH2 My dishwasher is making a lot of noise which I have isolated to either the pump motor or pump assembly. Two questions: Is the part number AP4434612 the correct replacement for this dishwasher model? (It looks to be correct but need to check) Do I need any other parts in order to replace the entire assembly? ie: gaskets, washers, water tight sealant
1 Answer Hello Ken! Pump and motor assy WPW10780877 is the correct replacement. No other gaskets or sealants are needed to repair. Thanks! Read More...
Jan November 05, 2013 for Model Number DU1055XTPS4 Our dishwasher will not drain. We checked the hose, and it does not appear to be clogged. When you press "cancel and drain", it makes a little noise, but you do not hear the water going down the drain as usual. Which part would be considered the drain pump? Thank You
Edgar T May 04, 2013 for Model Number GU3600XTSY2 The dishwasher was making a noise wihen washing only. I replaced the circulation pump; but now it fills with water, pauses for a few seconds fills up more, pauses again and then the display shows two horizontal lines and it stops. Could it be a sensor? it was working fine but loud before. Now it's worst.
1 Answer Edgar, You will want to double check all of your connections to make sure that they are all good connections and that everything was reconnected. If the connections are good then you will want to check your water level switch and check the OWI sensor to make sure that they are good. Read More...
David April 26, 2013 for Model Number KUDS30IVBL3 Dishwasher appear to be unable to pump water though any of the rinse arms. It just makes a buzzing sound during the entire wash and rinse cycle and does not appear to be moving any water whatsoever. It does seem to fill, drain and heat normally.
1 Answer David, You will want to check inside the pump to make sure that the impeller is not blocked by debris to keep it from turning. If this checks ok then you would need to replace the circulation pump and motor assembly WPW10780877. Read More...
Stephen S February 20, 2013 for Model Number KUDI02IRWH0 I had a post before this one, and thank you for the reply. I removed the pump and motor assy., then removed the new sensor and cleaned the soap from the sensor and the cavity and seems well with the sensor. Now it seems the new pump and motor assy. leaks in 3 places. I checked the gasket and recess flange of the assy. and wiped with a clean towel. Then I reinserted the assy. and put the tabs back, but this time, the tabs in the front and side area are loose. Do I need to reinstall the pump assy. back in the tub? Thanks again!!!!!
1 Answer Hello Stephen, Yes you would want to pull unit and reinstall the pump assembly. Read More...
Chris In Nc December 19, 2012 for Model Number Kenmore 665.1723403 Everything works well, cycles through all correctly, fills up to heater. Makes low murmuring noise and just doesn't push the water up high enough to disolve soap. I did pull all internal tubing out to make sure nothing was clogging, it was all clear. Do I need to replace the sump pump #W10237169? Before, should I take the pump motor out and make sure nothing is stuck inside, is that a possibility? Is there anything else that could cause the poor water circulation?
1 Answer Hello Chris. Yes, check and make sure nothing is clogged on the unit. If not, you will need to replace the sump and motor assembly WPW10780877. Read More...
Eddy L. November 13, 2012 Dishwasher model # 665.13752k602. Symptom: Labored noisy during wash cycles. Seems to spend a long time trying to wash. Normal drain function (swift and normal sounding). Does this machine have two motors? One drain and one wash? In that case it could be the wash motor. If not - is there anyway to get at the wash pump from inside the tub, or do I need to pull the dishwasher and disassemble in the middle of the kitchen? I have cleaned all the particles, lumps and "goo" from the grinder and check valve area as well as all tub parts. I get the symptom even with all the parts removed, so its down under.
1 Answer Hi. The wash motor is part # WPW10757217. Some smaller hands may be able to reach in from the bottom removed panel and replace the assy. It has a release tab lock on the "twist" on/off replacement. Make sure the new motor mount tab's are aligned correctly just before insertion into the bottom of the sump assy. You may just have to lower it a little and disconnect the tab mount screws to pull the unit half way out and tilt it back enough to remove and replace the motor. Use a little rinse aid on the new motor seal to install it. Thank You. Read More...
Marsha October 23, 2012 for Model Number kuds30ixblo my dishwasher would fill, then make a hum noise then automatically cancel itself and drain. Replaced both control panels...didn't help. (will be returning those). partially pulled apart drain on inside bottom of dishwasher. used a screw driver to turn motor and restarted dishwasher. It finally ran but loudly with grinding noise. I think I found my problem. I think that I need a pump motor. Just want to make sure I get the right part. Thanks
1 Answer Marsha, It sounds like you have a small article jammed in the impeller assembly and it "jammed" the impeller and stalled the motor. The pump and motor is the best way to go, at this point. You do have the correct part number WPW10780877 for the replacement part. And we'll send you some "how to" information. Read More...
