replacement part number W10782773.... I know these can be replaced with a whole drop in unit....but what about just replacing the recirc motor part only? CLICK HERE TO GO TO Yogitunes's LINK on eBay |

I've thought I could sneak by with replacing the chopper assemblies and the impellers.... Every one I've done has leaked...
It is easier to purchase a sump with the motor attached and call it a day... I wish I would have done that in the first place on the last two and now I've got to go back and do it. |

It sounds like you’ve narrowed it down to the pump and motor, I have never had any problems just replacing just the motor on these DWs I do several every week
Bear In mind that your pre-rinsing is what causes the seal failure and rusted racks, pre-rinsing dishes generally cuts the life of a dishwasher in half. Dishwashers were never designed to wash clean dishes without food soil, the detergent is too strong and temperatures are too high. John L. |

Pre-rinsing....this is so true...
especially for dishwashers with 'Sensor' cycles.....with no food particles, your wash time could be reduced, and it will jump into final rinses, 2 if your lucky... just because you press 'Heavy' or 'Normal' doesn't guarantee a full cycle....something to think about... |

if you want to give it a challenge, throw a whole cake at it once in a while....
I haven't done that to my UltraWash in years....but after the first few times, I figure it could handle anything after that.... this gives me an idea, I need to throw one into my Kitchen Aid....maybe I will bake one tomorrow... any great dishwasher can have his cake, and pulverize it too! |

@appnut, we regularly use the normal cycle and the energy saver dry. What's the difference between normal and the quick wash cycle? Would that quick wash cycle not have worn out the pump/motor as quickly? Less wear on the seals? |
