WD26X10016 General Electric Dishwasher Drain Pump Assembly

Dishwasher Drain Pump Assembly

This component is essential for dishwashers that fail to drain properly. It is compatible with various GE products, including Hotpoint, General Electric, and some Sears-Kenmore models. Positioned at the bottom of the dishwasher, the drain pump is crucial for ejecting dirty water post-wash cycle, ensuring the dishwasher is clear of any residual water.

A malfunctioning drain pump may be due to a blocked or limited impeller, which hampers water flow. Accumulation of sediment can also diminish the pump's performance over time. Additionally, wear and tear from regular use might lead to failures in the motor or other internal components.

Signs of a faulty drain pump include:

- Water not fully draining after a cycle
- Water pooling at the bottom of the dishwasher
- Unpleasant odors due to stagnant water
- Display of error messages concerning drainage

This GE original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part is also suitable for certain Kenmore dishwasher models.
