A few days ago my dishwasher wasn’t draining water. I live in an apartment so the maintenance man came to fix it. He was here for over 7 hours and couldn’t fix it. He ended up installing a different washer from another unit and that didn’t fix the problem, it added a new problem, a weird grinding noise. I watched this video and FUCKING FIXED IT. It involved diving into my apartment dumpster to get spare parts from the initial machine, using a spoon as a screwdriver, and drinking a pint of vodka, but I did it! There was a piece of glass in the drain pump and that fan in the motor thing was broken into pieces. Amazing video. Thank you thank you!
Thank you. Out if all the videos I watched this was the only one that actually played the annoying sound so I could pin point my problem.
EXACTLY!
Thank you for the video, it was helpful. In case you're still wondering, the purpose of that 'pin' you reference inquisitively and shave down @7:07 is more of a receptacle for a long cylindrical pin from the motor-side to keep the housing from spinning separately from the base/motor.
11 years later and you're still the GOAT!! Thanks man, I'm taking the Mrs. to Texas Roadhouse!
You're demonstration of how to get to the washer pump made me confident enough to replace my defective one myself. Thanks so much. Probably saved me a couple of hundred dollars in labor costs and made me confident I can tackle another task like this.
Thanks so much for the video.
WOW, this fix worked like an absolute charm to fully resolve the loud noise I was having! Thank you tremendously!
I have a lot of rentals and I watch a lot of videos because I do my own repairs on everything. You are by far one of the best at giving great instruction with some comedy, nice job :)
Thank you so much. My dishwasher was making loud noise and I had to do dishes manually. The first part of the video itself solved the problem. There was some broken pieces of glass that were by the drain. Thank you again.
Thanks you for posting this. Got the pump apart. Found a little chunky. Removed chunky. The dishwasher is much quieter now. If I ever need a part, I'm ordering from you guys. Great service you're providing. Did I say thank you? Yes. But . . . THANK YOU!
Excellent, thanks for this video. I wasnt sure what my noise was and yours is the only video to show this repair rather than replacing the whole motor.
Best dishwasher impeller inspection video on RUclips, period. Thanks so much, it helped me immensely.
Absolutely one of the best DIY video I have seen on youtube, and I watch A LOT!! Well done, your in-depth and easy to understand explanation of the whole procedure is highly appreciated! Keep up the great work!
Outstanding! I learned a ton and was able to make the fix myself. THANK YOU! I had no idea that these use impellers. I work with larger ones on fire engines, so this made good sense. Great, great video!
Great video,I really enjoyed watching it.I have been doing HVAC repair for 25 years and also repairing everything else you can think of,but never a dishwasher until ours quit working today.I will be able to figure it out fast now thanks to your video,I sure wish we had access to this kind of info years ago.
I need to say thank you. I found a piece of pea-size debris wedged in the blade in the motor that was causing a lot of noise. This fix undoubtedly saved my family a nice chunk of money.
Finally an easy to follow video with solutions. Noisy dishwasher now runs very smooth and quiet. Thanks!
Just wanna tell you that this same thing happened on my two year old Frigidaire dishwasher, I found this video and gave it a shot. Fixed it. I genuinely appreciate you making this video
Wonderful! Thanks for taking the time to leave your comment! It’s always a good boost to see feedback like this!
Thanks for doing this video. It led me straight to my drainage pump, which I cleaned out, and I was back in business in an hour or so. Nice work.
My pleasure, I'm glad it helped! Thanks for the comment!
You are awesome for sharing this much knowledge and guiding the common man/woman through this no good money grabbing quick unprofessional service providers!
Congratulations! Confidence is definitely a large part of it! Thanks for the comment!
Thank you so much for this video, I was able to fix my super loud dishwasher. This made me happy, made my wife happy and most importantly save me $$. Thank you again!
Terrific!!! Followed the video, tested and inspected fill pump and found a seed wedged inside along with other debris. Cleaned out nice-nice, re-installed and presto! Thanks so much you saved me lots of cash.
This worked like a charm on my Frigidaire, it is so much quieter now, thanks so much!

Thank you very much for this video. This is the only video I found that explains every part in also actually touches on drain pump issues.
Hey, just wanted to thank you for this vid. It gave me the confidence to try to repair my non-draining Frigidaire rather than waiting for the repair company. When you showed the drain motor and how simple it was to disassemble and inspect, I knew I could do this repair myself. It turned out that it was not broken, but that there was a blockage near drain vent. Thanks again!
That's awesome! Thanks for the comment!
Hmmm.. during the dry cycle.. Is that when the drain is running? Or is it only heating the element for dry when you hear the noise?
This video is still as relevant as ever, and the model used is mechanically very similar to my DW -- the only major difference being the controls interface. Was able to troubleshoot multiple issues that collectively created the problem. All without having to purchase parts or call a technician. Many thanks and kudos!
Brian B thanks for the comment! Fortunately the appliance designs don’t change very often. Glad you liked it!
Much kudos. It’s so difficult to find a DYI video that breaks everything down and explains how things are supposed to work.
Thank you!
Finally a good video that actually shows you in a simple easy to follow way.Most brands come from about 4 diff manufacturers so this is prbably very applicable to alot of brands. Great job I'll check out your site for other videos as well.!!!
Thanks!
Great, thorough video. Thank you. I followed your instructions to the 'T' and was able to diagnose that the issue was the drain pump (opened it as you showed, and a couple ball bearings had come out of the bearing pack).... HOWEVER, this warning to your viewers about replacing the circulation pump:...
... my circ pump appeared to be working but I saw some residual coffee grounds and decided to pull the circulation pump to inspect it more carefully, and clean. Followed your instructions to remove the circ pump, "...it may help to wiggle and twist a little as you pull."
I was gentle with the "wiggle and twist method" but the impeller snapped off at the underside because the O-ring for the lower disposer blade section was stuck in the sump housing, while the upper O-ring for the disposer blade cover came out freely. In this case, pulling just hard enough to bring the circ pump out, even gently wiggling and twisting a bit, allowed the impeller section (O-ring having less friction) to pull through the disposer blade cover (O-ring having high friction).
I did manage to fix the impeller (description below), AND in the process came up with a safer way to remove the circ pump: ...
...with DW on its side, reach in the cabinet and push evenly on the impeller as you gently pull and gently twist (do not wiggle), and this will keep equal force on impeller and disposer section as the circ pump is removed.
I ordered a new circulation pump, and while waiting for it to arrive did a repair to the old pump, and it worked fine (but chances are you'll need new O-rings). These steps to repair the broken off impeller (broken off at the axle and plastic bushing just under the impeller):
1. carefully reattach and align impeller blade; use a sharpie to mark the alignment for when you are gluing all together.
2. after you've made alignment marks, clean and gently scrape using an exacto blade the broken edges on the bushing
3. use a tiny bead of JB Waterweld epoxy (good for up to 300° and a 1300psi, into the inner bushing beneath the impeller (enough to fill in the space after the bushing is pushed down, but not enough to overlflow (so, a very tiny bead, like 1/8" round)
4. use JB steel reinforced two part epoxy with 4000psi and good for 500°f on the broken edges of the bushing
5. push the impeller back onto the circ pump
6. secure the impeller with a couple rubber bands crossed over the impeller to the bottom of the circ pump, and let it sit over night.
7. 24hrs later put a little steel reinforced on the outside of the bushing, and also over the screw and center mound of the impeller top screw, and before it dried sink a Phillips head bit into the screw so it you'll be able to access the screw if need be (this last step will help hold the screw into the broken bushing where it's threaded end is locked into the Waterweld.
I left the repaired circ pump in the dishwasher and it held up for a few washes, but when the new circ pump arrived I swapped it for concern that if the old impeller did eventually break off small pieces of plastic or the screw might get in the pump and and possibly ruin it.
@elkeyman Glad I could help! Thanks for the comment!
...reassembled everything and it now works like a charm! Thanks to you, I'm a HERO and you saved me a hoop of money in these hard economic times! THANK YOU!!!!
Ok, I just want to say thanks for posting this up! Because of your willingness to share knowledge, my dishwasher is now fully functional again!!! The morning started off with my wife telling me it wasn't draining water out of the bottom tub. Based on the discovery o your video, I was able to narrow the problem down to the drain pump. I pulled it off the machine and found a broken shard of glass that had somehow found its way into the pump impeller and jammed it. I removed the glass, re-ass
Thank you so much! I repaired my dishwasher using your great directions!
Great instructional video! Excellent presentation, coverage of material and accurate and thorough description of the "inner workings" of the applliance. Look forward to see more.
Very helpful! Thank you! For some reason the plastic lid-looking piece that covers the solid food waste disposal blade was not clipped into place. It was loosely moving around while the blade was spinning. Easy clip back into place. We also modified the housing for the blade as seen in the video as well, just in case. Now our mysterious obnoxious noise is gone - but now we have a tiny leak! This feels like a never-ending troubleshoot and fix-it journey.
You made this fix so easy! Dishwasher fixed and hundreds of dollars saved!
Tranderson02 thanks for taking the time to comment!
Thanks for the comment! Glad it helped!
Absolutely outstanding!
Top quality on the video production, and information.
Thanks so much!
Liked/subbed.
I haven't got mine up and running yet, but pretty sure you showed everything I could think to ask at this point.
Mine has been unhooked for quite a while. The previous problem was drainage past the unit, now that is fixed, going to try to get it running again.
Will follow up!
Ok, so I ran water to it, and fired it up, and it took a while to run, but it at some point filled up with water, but its not draining, so on with the troubleshooting like you show here.
Thanks again.
Thanks for this! My mom and I just fixed our dishwasher taking the pump off. It had popcorn seeds in it causing it to hum. It was unbelievable easy and saved us the cost of a new dishwasher.
Glad to hear it! That's what this is all about. Congratulations on the repair!
The best video I've found so far and so easy to follow
Hands down the best how to video I've come across - Thanks!
This video was spot on with my issue. I did however have to replace the motor but that was WAAAYYYYY cheaper then the new dishwasher my wife was looking at 😃. Thanks for this video.
Thank you for sharing this video. It was helpful for me getting out a broken piece of glass lodged in the drain motor impeller.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video. Nicely done and help me understand the problem.
I was watching while my Frigidaire dishwasher was making the same sound at the same exact frequency! Now I know where to start looking for the problem thanks!
This dude sounds so much like Nickolas Cage! Thats all I kept seeing in my head. Thx for the vid bro.
After watching the video I felt confident taking my similar model apart. Ultimately, after removing the drain pump, I was able to find a clog in the drain line. The video was helpful. Thanks!
@63lutzie Glad I could help. It's amazing how similar all appliances and other machines are. Once you know the basics you can fix all kinds of things. I've had a run of small engine issues lately and people on RUclips have saved my butt and money more than once. Thanks for the comment!
Your humor+simplicity in explaining= top notch. Thanks for sharing your talents! Keep moving forward!
Thank you!
Xd xd xd
@BSSMSLJ Thanks for the comment! I learned that lesson the hard way, but that's the best way to make a lesson stick I suppose. Knowing the location and condition of shut off valves before starting a project can avert many problems before they arise. Your right about customers as well! People are much more receptive to correcting additional problems that are discovered if they feel like they still have a choice, after the job has started they tend to feel trapped.
Thank you so very much! First thing I discovered was two pieces of glass, then I took the parts out of the bottom of dishwasher and there was hair wrapped around the wheel. Didn't think hair was getting into dishwasher but my long hair ends up everywhere. Put everything back together and no more noise!!! I'm so happy.
After watching this video, I was able to fix the problem with my dishwasher at no cost!!! Can't tell you how much I appreciate it.
John Zreliak Glad I could help! Thanks for posting!
Got the part today, installed new drain pump. Works like a charm! You are the best!
There was plastic caught on the blade of my machine, but otherwise it was precisely the problem. Thanks. Perfect instructions.
I have to say thank you for this video. My problem was actually the drain hose itself was clogged, but you gave me the starting points to look at, and step by step walk through the problem.
Mike Stelzner That's awesome! Congratulations! Thank you for taking the time to give feed back!
One of the best DIY videos. Helped me to fix my problem. Thank you.
For the second time, this video helped me fix my dishwasher. Thank you.
Had the exact noise you mentioned! Your video was spot on! Found a piece of plastic on the motor food blades. Removed it an it runs like new! Thank you so much!! Made me a hero!
That is awesome! Thanks for the comment!
THANKS! It turned out to be the drain pump that needed replacing. Your video was super helpful and gave me the confidence to "dig in." So awesome to find such a well made video on an appliance that looks almost exactly like mine. Can't say enough!
Congratulations!! I really appreciate that you took the time to write! Glad it helped!
Thanks for getting back to me with excellent tips from a pro! I sure appreciate it. I cancelled my Frigidaire dishwasher order and will be looking for a better brand this week. I also have a fairly new LG washing machine in New Mexico that was damaged when a realtor was trying to remove a chest freezer next to it. Looks like something hit the washer at one end in the back and now, the entire top comes off! Hope I can find a repair person to fix it so I can save it. Thanks for helping!
That's perfect! Thanks for the comment! Congratulations!
Helped fix my issue within two minutes! Already had the covers off, went to check the impeller, found that it was clogged with a rogue piece of plastic that must have shifted when I last cleaned the inside filters. Thanks!
This was a great video. You did an excellent job of explaining every step and made a quality video production at the same time. I'm an instructional technologist and wanted to say on the pedagogical side you score an A.
I have a Frigidaire Professional series that just doesn't clean. I've removed all found debris and it does pump and drain water. It just doesn't clean. It's brand new to use (we moved into the house last week).
saved my butt, I wouldn't have understood where to clear out the trash I found in the supply motor pump without this instructional. can't thank you enough.
Thanks! Glad it helped!
Fantastic video. I had an issue where my machine was not draining and this gave me the confidence to go beyond taking the parts in the basin out. After taking the drain pump apart I found nothing wrong, but upon putting everything back together, magically it started draining again. Due to the fact that I never found anything wrong, I still fear it may happen again, but at least I know how to get in there and check it out now. Thanks!
Thanks for the great information, looks like I'm going to pull out our Frigidaire dishwasher and check out our pump to see what's making that ugly noise when it's washing. Thanks again.
Great video. Helped me find two chunks of plastic jammed in impellor. Of course I had to take it apart twice...
Thanks for uploading this video. I was able to find out the reason why my Galaxy dishwasher was not draining the water.
I was able to remove the dishwasher and diagnose that the drain pump was the issue. I disassembled the drain pump, as shown in the video, and found a screw.I reassembled the drain pump and put everything back together. Dishwasher works just like before.
Your video had great editing, was easy to understand, and your tips helped a lot with disassembly.
Thanks again.
Yes! Removed screens, diverter cover and removed all debris. Now the lower control arm spins and high pitch sound is gone. Luckily an easy fix without getting into the motors. Thanks for the video!!!
Excellent video production. Excellent narration, editing and video. This producer is a professional
I love how you explained everything on the dishwasher!
Amazing. We just took ours apart, found graphite leaking out like crazy. The tinker in me wanted to know how that pump worked and why there would be so much graphite - you answered all my questions. Added bonus, with some googling, I now know how a brush motor works. One side's brush is low enough, looks like the spring might not be giving the carbon enough push anymore... probably why there is pump failure. Thanks!
Thanks a bunch!!! From your video I was able to diagnose the problem, without an expensive service call! I'm placing an order with you right now for a new drain pump. Seems the rattling I'm getting is from the two bearings in the impeller skipping out of their grooves.
Thanks for the video. Helped me save money. Had a straw stuck in the dishwasher.
This vid is great-this is the exact problem my dishwasher had and now it’s back to running smoothly and quietly - well done!
Very nice! Thank you!
Thanks for helping me fix my loud noise. Quiet again removed grime around wheel fixed. Appreciate you r video❤
I'm not that handy at all but appreciated the ease of understanding and humor in this video. After following your steps found my issue in the drain pump. Little concerned as I found what looks to be a rivet head. However the dishwasher is running and doesn't look to be leaking. Thanks for taking your time to do videos like these, as you mentioned I can take the misses out to dinner now. I'll keep applianceassistant in mind if I need a part in the future, to support you for supporting me.
Thank you for the Video. I never worked on residential dish machines and have the same washer. Once I saw how it was put together in your video, I just pulled it apart and found a small piece of glass in the impeller.
Thanks for saving my sanity, that growling noise was making me nuts.
That's what it's all about! Thanks for the comment!
@docStrangluv confidence is 90%! Never know you may have cleared something you didn't see... Thanks for the comment!
@Thecrazyeditor I'm not sick of it at all. That is possible. The impeller is held to the motor shaft by a flimsy tab that is expanded within a square hole by one screw. So it would definitely be possible for the square hole to become round, one side of the tab to snap off, or the shaft to strip out for some reason. Thanks for the compliments. Glad to help!
This video was perfect! The model and parts weren't exactly the same but the steps worked just the same. It turned out to be the same problem as in your video. But I went through all the steps anyway and cleaned up a bunch of gunk. Wife so happy -->> Hubby so happy. Thank you thank you thank you.
had the same problem, pulled the motor looked at it, figured i would be ordering a new one. tried your fix and it bought me a bit more time. thanks !
another happy you tube do it yourself. fixing job I did. thanks again, appreciate it
THANK YOU!! You saved me from buying a new dishwasher!!!
I had a piece of plastic in the blade compartment which was making so much noise!
Removed it, put everything back together and the noise is gone! 🙂
Thanks for the post! I cover that in the dishwasher installation video but don't focus much on it in this one... so it's good to bring that to peoples attention!
Congratulations! and Thanks!
Thank you very much for your show. By following your instruction, I solved the draining problem of my dishwasher. It turned out there was some fiber debri build up in around the inpeller, but the main reason was the drain pipe is blocked by heavy grease. I just brought the house for one month, think the first owner must washed some very special thing in the washer.
Thank you again Sir.
Well done! Great info and entertaining too. Getting ready to diagnose my dishwasher problem today.
Great video. MUCH More informative than calling Frigidaire. Thank you.
More diy vids should be this clear, simple, and funny. Thank you.
Thank you again. We caulked silicone around the interior gasket, made sure DW was level and Voila! No more leak!! So happy! Its probably temporary, but easy enough to do again as necessary.
paula holdgate Thats great! It will probably hold up pretty well. Thanks for the update!
This video was exactly what I needed to fix the very problem it gave a way to diagnose and fix.
Thanks so much - I was amazed at how much "ick" was trapped in the filter in the bottom of my dishwasher! It runs like a new machine!
@Pheena321 Glad I could help! That would be greatly appreciated!
Frigidaire is kind of poor quality, but honestly what isn't? I work on almost all brands and I can't confidently recommend any brand at this point. :( Then again I only see the broken ones so I'm sure that must affect my view a little... Thanks for the comment!
Congratulations! Thanks for the comment!
Thank you sir! I fixed my dishwasher. I appreciate the shared wisdom.
I'm glad It helped! But it was you with the gumption and determination to get it done! Thanks for the comment! It really means a lot!
That is awesome! Thanks for the comment!
This video is awesome, set aside a lot of concerns I had about messing with the innards of our dishwasher, darn thing has started having standing water, thankfully the floater switch(?) stops it from overfilling itself.
I'm hoping it's something I can fix.
Awesome right to the point video with great explanations and examples! Thanks!!
