Thanks for your video! Service tech said my problem was drain pump, sensor and control board all needed to be replaced. He also mentioned that sometime the drain pump blades are simply obstructed (food, broken glass, etc). After watching your video - and before ordering the three replacement parts he recommended (about $200) - I pulled the drain pump. Behold! a broken piece of glass fell out. I reassembled the pump and the machine worked as new. So....before you purchase a new drain pump, be sure the blades on your old one are free and clear. Thanks Again!
Thank you! I would not have attempted to replace the pump without this video. Was surprisingly easy once I got the dishwasher out and tilted. Awesome video.
My dishwasher wasn't draining. Came to YT for tips, and your vid was one of the vids that helped me figure out how to fix the problem. Thanks for posting!
Great support! Great video of what was under the dishwasher before I took it out.
I followed all directions but there was a twist in my story. Once i got the pump off I noticed that i could inspect the blades by taking off the pump housing. I figured I was going to invest in a new pump anyway, what was the harm in taking apart the old one to see if it was even getting power.
After taking the housing off, I noticed there was a string and hair wrapped around the shaft. Doing my best to remove all that I then reconnected to power supply, with the housing still off, to see if the blades will spin now. IT WORKED! I closed everything back up and poured some water in the dishwasher to see if it will drain, IT WORKED AGAIN!
Thank you so much for the confidence to tackle this project. Keep up the good work.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ! ! ! Our washer is a different model, but close enough that when I saw your repair, I knew that was the issue. about 45 minutes and our machine is now working as it should. I would not have had any idea what was wrong without you video.
Nice! Glad it helped!
Thanks for the video. I had to take apart the pump to get out something that was grinding up in there. Found a piece of plastic and a toothpick that was trying to get in there as well. All of the blades of the impeller were in good shape. Put it all back together and works great. Thanks again.
Thank you! This was just what I needed and your commentary along the way was very helpful in troubleshooting my drain problem.
Thanks man, cleaning the hose that went to the disposal worked for me. Glad I didn’t have to mess w the pump. 🎉
Shop vac did the trick! My dishwasher wasn’t draining. Same symptoms as video. Luckily clearing the drain line on both sides with vac worked. Thanks man!
Great video. Thank you for being short and to the point! Only thing I would add is removing the pump and checking to see if it has anything stuck in it before replacing. (mine a a glass shard)
My dish washer is back up and running thanks to your video! Awesome job!
Great point! Thanks for the support!
Just wanted to say thanks. Ordered pump for $44 and fixed it exactly like you showed. THANK YOU !!!
Awesome! Glad it worked out. Thanks for supporting our channel! 🤘🤘🤘
Thank you so much for your video!! This was the exact part we needed and saved us so much money!
Awesome! Thanks for supporting the channel!
Thank you Steven. With your video I was able to order and replace the pump, and have the dishwasher running again within 24 hours. Great video. Short, concise and very, very helpful. You saved me a ton of money, not to mention the waste If I had to throw away a fairly new dishwasher. Keep up the good work.
Bam! Glad we could help! Thanks for the support 💪💪💪
Thanks for your help. I found that there was a piece of broken glass stopping the impeller to do its job. Cleared it and works great.
Bam! Awesome 👏
Thank you!! I replaced the drain pump and it works. Good Job .Thanks to your video
Bam! Glad it helped!
This could be my problem. I have a very similar model that didn't drain last night. So glad I found your video!
Hopefully it works! Thanks for supporting our channel John!
If it didnt drain, does that mean i aslo need to change the pump?
Thank you for your video other than having a problem removing the dishwasher because I had to remove the electrical wires from underneath the dishwasher it was extremely easy to remove and replace the drain pump thanks to your video and yes it did resolve the problem and works fine
You're welcome! Thanks for supporting our channel!💪💪
Thank you!! I replaced the drain pump and it works.
You're welcome!
dude! you vacuumed up one of those two knobs!!!
Lol my sleight of hand was on point.
Easy to recover!
I am having the same issue. Your video was very helpful and though it is a slightly different model, I found the part on the link provided.
Thanks alot for the guidance and wish me luck
Glad we could help!
This worked for me. Appreciate it!
Glad we could help Bruce! Thanks for supporting our channel! 🤙🤙
Thanks for the video. Helped a lot!
This video help me through a tough spot - standing water at the base of our dishwasher.
Bam, glad we could help!
Worked like a charm, thank you!!!!
Glad it helped!
Please read. My experience. Water not drained. I checked hoses. They looked clean and clear. So I wasn’t worry about it. Following the video I decided to buy a multimeter. Checked the water pump for continuity and “Everything ok” like 26 ohms. I still decided to order a new pump from Amazon for $29. Installed it and it works flawlessly. My dishwasher was pretty noisy when new because it has a new and strong draining pump. Last days it was doing very quiet cycles due to, what techs call it, a “tired pump”. Now. At least in my Whirlpool model, I didn’t have to disconnect or remove it from its place and put it upside down. I only remove a plastic cover from the bottom front and squeezed my hands through it. Very ease. First. Disconnect the power. Vacuum all the water. Using pliers, Disconnect the plastic drain hose that goes to the pump. And then. With a mirror. Locate the clip that goes on the other side of the pump. Press it and rotate the pump and voila. Clean and make sure there’s nothing obstructed. Disconnect the electrical plug and connect the new one. Easy peasy. I hope this helps. Salud 🍻🍻🍻
Thanks for the info... saved me.a big headache.
Thanks. I’ve got to take mine apart and figure out what’s going on. This helps a lot.
I took the pump body apart and had a chip of a broken dish stuck inside at the impeller. Works fine now.
Glad it helped! Man big save there! Way cheaper than calling the repair guy.
This helped so much!
Just ordered my replacement pump
Thank you , great advice. Any suggestions when the start button seems to not work unless I press extremely hard, could it be the sensor on the panel?
Excellent video. My newer GE Profile dishwasher isn’t draining. I’m gonna check the drain line for clogging. I noticed that my dishwasher makes the exact same noise as yours. Does it make that noise only if it’s broken or if it’s struggling to pump the water out?
Great help. Thank you sir
Glad it helped, thanks for supporting the channel! 🫡
Steven thank you for the video. We don’t have the same model GE as you but we changed out the drain pump and checked all the hoses. It may be strange but we just started using our dishwasher in 2023 it was installed when we purchased our home that we had built in 2016. It’s quieter but water is collecting in the bottom and it’s not singing as it was previously when the cycle is complete. Any idea what we are missing? I would hate to have someone come in to look at it and it’s something simple we are missing, Thank you for your time,
I'm so glad I found your video, it is the ONLY one that has the same float as mine. I cleaned it out and vacuumed it out and some large chunks were hitting the hose. I did a short clean and drain and noticed soap suds in the water. I did not put any soap in and have no idea where that came from. Any ideas? By the way it drained fine.
Hmmm, im not quite sure, sorry.
I have this exact washer or one very similar. I've done all the cleaning except the part where you take that last piece out. I'm not sure I can find a socket/extender that will fit. Let me go look for one.
Hell yes. I had my dishwasher ripped 3/4 of the way apart, YouTubing all night trying to find a smoking gun for why my dishwasher wouldn’t drain.
Your video is the only one that mentioned taking the two bolts/screws out from below the float and removing and cleaning those plastic pieces.
I have retained my title as Mr. Fix-it and my wife is happy we don’t have to wash dishes by hand.
Fleexxxxx! Glad we could help, we appreciate you supporting our channel! 🤘🤘
Hi have an old G E Nautilus dishwasher. Not completely draining. Have removed lower and upper racks and drained water. Can see filter at back of unit has debris as well as filters on bottom of unit. Tried to remove the the hex nuts holding in both filters (left loosen, right tighten). Won’t budge. What am I doing wrong. Please help.
I have a similar problem but the hook holding the motor broke withthat plastic and came off, most likely by the person who dismantled the appliances during out kitchen remodel. The person who put it all back showed me its broke and now we see water not draining. I dont see any water coming too the garbage disposer at all.
Nice work
Thanks for the support!!!
Thanks!
Thanks so much! 🤘🤘
Had the same problem except didn’t need to replace the pump - the black housing part of the pump is bayonet mounted allowing access to the impellers. In my case there was a chip of broken glass jamming the impeller ( can’t figger how it slipped past the filter tho) Cleared the jam and reassembled. Voila!
Thank you for this comment - I was reading it out loud while my husband is taking everything apart and BOOM, a tiny piece of broken ceramic plate came right out. We were worried we'd have to replace the pump on a 2 year old dishwasher! Comment section is GOLDEN for additional help
Nice work!
Is there a video on that? Lol 😂 i have no idea what any of that meant. Im trying to fix it myself. Ive cleared everything out but still wont drain. Wondering if what u just said is wrong. I know my pump is fine. Its just something stuck lol
@@chantelm5288 at the 7:18 mark in the video, where he removes the pump, you can see one of the tabs on the white base where the tog of the black impeller housing slips in (his thumb is coincidentally pointing at it). There are three of these bayonet connectors equally space around the impeller housing. A counter clockwise twist will allow you to separate the housing from the base and reveal the impeller.
Hey so the DW I have is always draining. The water never fills or goes past the draining cycle. I’m guessing but is it the control?
Good stuff
Thanks for supporting our channel! 💪💪💪
I have the same dishwasher changed the pump no help, but I found that the drain line where it leaves the dishwasher has a check valve right after the pump. mine was stuck open piece of plastic was in there so the pump would not prime and always had air in it. The check valve looks like a 90 degree elbow that plugs into the pump……easy to miss. I almost bought a new dishwasher.
Nice catch! That would have sucked, hopefully this info can help out others too!
How do we know the model #? Does the pump just drain the unit, or does it serve to actually spray? How did u know your pump was bad? Thanks.
My model is a CODTZZOSSFOSS but looks like the same setup where inside. Can’t seem to find the pump with that model number. Will the pump your using work thanks in advance
I'm not able to find the pump for my model GDP630PYR5FS on Amazon. Is there another similar part that fits? Thanks.
My apartment complex just bought me a new GE dishwasher and i can't find the dryer mechanism? Can you help??
Saw you vacuumed the screw
What is that pump motor part number?
Will a failed drain pump cause the user interface to not turn on? I've tried pushing the select cycle and start buttons together for 5 seconds and didn't make a difference
I’m getting the FTD error code, but the dishwasher has drained fine (no standing water). So I don’t know if it’s just a sensor issue or what… any ideas?
Have you guys seen where the drain is clogged and nothing will even light up on the user interface? I already replaced the control board cuz it look like it was burnt but didn't fix it. Nothing lights up but I disconnected the drain tube from the garbage disposal and you can't blow through it
Check to make sure the plug is knocked out of the garbage disposal if you replaced it 🎉
This whole time the garbage disposal still had the plug in it from the store.
Just replaced the pump with the help of your video however I broke the plastic faceplate that goes over the buttons and lights. I ordered a replacement but it’s hard to snap on that piece and I broke it again while doing so. Any recommendations?
Super glue, better would be epoxy
I think this might be my issue I wish I could show you my videos to give me some ideas. We have tried so much.
The video is pretty good but skips parts. How did you test the motor without running the dishwasher? How did you remove the electrical clips?
This question if for ANYBODY who can help. My GE dishwasher does not drain, when I remove the connection to the garbage disposal and try to blow into it *(after cleaning it.) It does not allow any air to be blown in or sucked out. This confirms its something clogging my dishwasher and that the problem isn't the pump right?
Did you get any error code? I am getting error 860. I already replaced the mother board and I am still having the same issue. Please let me know if you know what this error code means. Thank you.
I wish you were my repair guy! lol
I changed my drain pump, worked again for a small wash. When I did a “heavy” wash it’s flooded again. Any ideas on what I can be now?
Your hose under the sink is clogged
@2:10 you left the screw in the tub then sucked it up and I was yelling at the screen NNooooooo! Then @4:46 it magically appeared like magic.
Bam!😂
Did i miss why your replacing the pump?? You fixed clog, shouldnt you just start it back on, or reset?? How,d you test pump? So idk, if mines now clogged or needs a new pump....
I showed you what you could try first, if you did that then try to run it. If the same thing happens replace it?
mine is doing the opposite it wont fill with water..
Mine is running out the bottom, similar GE model.
Uh oh.
MY GE dishwasher only drains some of the water, some still is left on the bottom,I have no idea if the pump works or now, please help
Did you watch the video?
Is this the same fix for an impeller being stuck? My pump is making the same sound and I can't get impeller to move at all from the top. I just had applaince guys out quoted me 489 to fix might as well go buy a new one. Will this fix get impeller to turn?
Mine had a piece of plastic in it.
Question I had was why was their power being sent to your pump while you were troubleshooting?
Because it was still plugged into the wall.🤘
@@BreakFreeHomestead but why was it receiving a signal to turn on? You complain it was making noise or something. It should only be energized if board is sending it power.
How about a dishwasher getting ants inside?
What can you if you don’t have a quarter inch socket and an extension?
Borrow one, or buy one, might just have to call the repair man. 🤑
I’ve been Hand washing dishes for 2 yrs, but when I’m washing machine pump failed , I had to jump in. It looks like the same process
Easy peezy.
What if you don't have a shopvac
Go to the store and get a cheap one, or hire an appliance repair company.
@@BreakFreeHomestead Or do what I did and use a turkey baster & a bucket. Slow but it works.
U skipped the repair part... .
Follow the directions!
