Sun April 17, 2011 for Model Number KUDI01FLWH0 Hi, my dishwasher begins the filling process, stops after a min or so, the washing process starts and stops within 2-3 seconds, water starts filling again and eventually another minute later the wash cycle starts. At this stage the water level is about 1/2 inch lower than heater level. Is that the right level? Even if I manually add more hot water, the motor just seems to make noise but no swoosh (both spray arms seem to be spinning because they are in a different position when I open door). I have cleaned the entire assembly, including chopper assembly which had lots of debris on it. It helped a bit but a month later, same problem. First, do I need a new inlet water valve (seems to be ok, water pressure into the dishwasher is great), the float is obviously working because it doesn't overfill. It drains fine. What part do I need if I just bought the impeller and which do I need if I replace the whole assembly (think there are two sizes of thermistors?)? Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Sun. You will need to check the impeller and see if it is worn or broke. If so, it will need to be replaced. It sounds like the water level is ok. Hope this helps. Read More...
Ryan April 16, 2011 for Model Number DU1055XTSS2 Whirlpool Quiet Partner 1 Model # DU1055XTSS2. When filling & draining the unit is as quiet as the day I purchased it. However during the wash phase it makes a very loud whining noise. Inspected and removed the chopper then did a test run. Still make the loud whining noise during the wash cycle.Again, drain cycle is super quiet still. I'm thinking the wash motor is going bad. Is this the part that will solve my problem?
1 Answer Ryan, Yes it could be a bad motor winding, but I would remove the motor and check the impeller and volute, first. But then those components are included with the pump/motor assembly, so it's up to you . Good Luck Read More...

Ben April 12, 2011 for Model Number 665.16534201 My dishwasher began making a loud grinding noise. After a few weeks it completely stopped. I figure I need the motor or pump or something like that. However I don't know which one to choose. I see AP4434612 which is for the whole motor, pump and sump assembly. Or I can choose AP4434617 which looks like the same thing. What would I need? Thanks!
1 Answer Hello Ben. According to the model number you provided, you will need W10782773. Hope this helps. Read More...
Etwhirl April 08, 2011 for Model Number du1055xtpb4 I just installed this new pump and I am still not getting hardly any flow to the top sprayers. I checked the white flat supply tube in the back and it is clear. I also did a reset on the board... I am out of ideas.
1 Answer Hello Etwhirl. You will need to check and see if the spray arms are clogged. Also, check and make sure there is enough water coming into the machine. If the water level is low, the spray will be restricted. Hope this helps. Read More...
