first thing is to post the model number. Does it leak? Does the motor hum? |

I believe this machine has a separate drain pump, I have a 59 Westy in storage, I'll look and see for sure when I'm out in the storage unit today. If so, you should be able to replace the drain pump with a new one from another machine that uses a remote pump. Several dishwashers and clothes washers use these so it will just be a matter of removing the old pump and taking to the appliance parts store to find the best one.

Thanks Jim (?) I was out at my storage unit today where my 59 Westy dishwasher is stored and flipped it over to have a look under her skirt. The drain pump is a separate unit and you should be able to make something work for replacement but the one problem you might have is the diameter of the intake port. The Westy seems large, like 1 1/2 inches but with some creative hose work, you might be able to make it work. Even if the pump must be mounted differently and in another location under the tub, something will work. Best of luck - Greg |

Can you post a pic of it? That way, we all can see if something from another machine could be substituted, or the original one repaired or copied. |
