Ron February 21, 2017 for Model Number 665.16979200 On our parts diagram that shows the Pump and Motor Parts is item #21 (8268397) listed as a seal, volute. It appears as a separate item. Can it be bought separately or must you buy #18 (8268405) volute, back? It appears you are selling both combined. There is some confusion on your parts search when you enter the volute it's showing me the whole motor.
1 Answer Ron, Unfortunately the volute has been substituted to the motor assembly which is part number WPW10757217. Read More...
Paul A April 19, 2014 for Model Number KUDIO1ILWH5 Inside bearing went bad, motor is good, do you have replacement bearings?
Ej October 08, 2012 for Model Number KUDM01FKSS1 I have water dripping from the motor and volute. How do I remove the motor and volute from the pump housing?
1 Answer EJ, Here's the information. " Removing the Wash Motor 1. Remove the bolt securing the wash motor and drip shield in place on the pump assembly. 2. Once the bolt and drip shield are removed, turn the wash motor counter-clockwise until it stops (approximately ¼ turn). 3. Pull the motor straight back from the sump assembly. Some effort may be necessary to dislodge the motor. The volute will remain attached to the motor NOTE: When reinstalling the wash motor and volute, do not pinch the volute seal between the volute and sump. Use a small amount of rinse aid on the volute seal to help installation. 4. With the wash motor removed, the separation screen can be removed from the sump base. 5. The thermistor can be removed from the sump by turning it ¼ turn counterclockwise and pulling it out. The thermistor can be removed without removing the sump assembly from the tub. NOTE: Make sure water is completely drained from sump. Access to the thermistor can be gained by removing the access and toe panels while the unit is in its installed position." You probably won't need the volute, unless it's cracked or broken, but you will need to check and replace the motor shaft seal 8193951A or the complete motor assembly WPW10757217 to recieve the other needed impeller /circulation parts.

Johnooh February 11, 2012 for Model Number GU2200XTSB3 Is the motor shaft seal (AP3120026) on top of the Volute? Is this what holds it on? Thanks.
1 Answer Hello Johnooh! The impeller kit 8193951A holds the volute W11622922 on the motor WPW10757217. Thanks! Read More...
1 Answer Hello, The impeller unscrews off of the motor shaft to remove the pieces on the end. It is a little tricky to do, but you will have to stop the shaft from turning to remove this part. Hope this helps. Read More...
1 Answer Hello, The volute should twist off of the motor. It has a seal under it, so it's tight. Hope this helps. Read More...
