Circulation Pump and Motor W11414076

Disconnected water, drain and electricity. Pulled machine out and put on its back to access bottom. It's a matter of swapping out the part. You do have to "move" some blocking parts, but no big deal. Only issue is you need to have traditional hose clamps as the 2 OEM clamps are 1 time use and if you do not have the crimper, you need to replace with standard ones. Also, no one tells you that you may need to "reset" the machine when you put the power back on. I had an error /fault code of FA E5 which is a drain issue. Just cut the power for a couple of minutes, open the door, hit CANCEL twice ( you may need to hit HEATED DRY too), put power back on, and the fault code will go away. Not sure if this is what the factory says, but a bit of trial and error solved it.

Never done any repair before on an appliance, but a lot less expensive than repair person who wanted $665 + tax.

Diagnose using onboard diagnostic function. Note the light code for our dishwasher did not match others online, so check the quick guide that came with your dishwasher.

Undo all clamps to the circulation pump, remove the drain pump from the assembly.

Install drain pump into new assembly, and install all parts into dishwasher. Ensure all cables connected and reinstall dishwasher into cabinet space. Run short test cycle and check for leaks.

Motor was loud and was getting louder. I couldn’t find an away to order just the motor so I ordered the motor and pump assembly, removed the motor from the pump case with the 3 torx screws. Very easy replacement, resolved issue completely.
