WPW10234567 Whirlpool Dishwasher Pump and Motor Assembly

Dishwasher Pump and Motor Assembly

This component is essential for the operation of the dishwasher, located at the bottom of the unit. The pump facilitates the movement of water into and through the sprayers of the dishwasher, as well as its expulsion into the drain. The motor powers the pump, ensuring its functionality.

Common brands under the Whirlpool umbrella include Amana, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, Roper, and Admiral. Additionally, Whirlpool manufactures compatible products for Sears-Kenmore and Ikea.

Typical indicators that the pump and motor may require replacement include persistent water in the dishwasher post-cycle, lack of water spray during operation, or the dishwasher failing to operate altogether. To replace the pump and motor assembly, ensure the appliance's breaker is switched off beforehand.

This genuine OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) replacement part is sold individually and is designed to fit dishwashers from Whirlpool, Jenn-Air, KitchenAid, and Kenmore. Regular use can lead to wear and tear, necessitating eventual replacement to maintain optimal performance.
