My dishwasher has 8 years of use, it never gave me problems, but I have two water filters installed in my house, the water here is collected from the rain, in the region where I live, I also use chlorine in the dishwasher once a month . Greetings from Brazil. I love your videos.
Get hold of a box of citric acid-they sell it in wilkos at the moment,it’s with all the other washing machine cleaners etc-pour half the contents in,and run it without any dishes-this stuff will dissolve any calcium build up. Well done on the diagnosing and repair-I’m a service engineer,and do this day in day out!
Life saver mate, had the same issue, doing everything but wash, watched your video to find the pump motor, opened the motor to find a worn impeller had fell off, new impellor for a fiver and the dishwashers working great. even managed it without dismantling the motor from the unit.... saved a fortune mate cheers.
I appreciate the fact your fixing videos are diverse Maybe not all of them are interesting to everyone, but your dedication to the repair cause is really appreciated.
I watched this and another video specific to our dishwasher. I did what you did, cleaned up everything and it worked! So happy, $850 Kenmore that had been sitting and never used so I think the motor just needed a little push. Thanks man.
Vince. Watched your video. We seemed to be having the same problem so ordered a wash motor. Fit it today. Seems to be working perfectly. Thankyou. Saved us a lot of money.
Hey Vince, the impeller is not supposed to come off the shaft easily like you did, this generally means the impeller is faulty and there will be too much play and the impeller will catch on the housing. The only fix was a new circulation pump. P.s I am an appliance technician.
Great video, mine had exactly the same sound as yours I managed to take the pump apart and clean while leaving the motor alone and it solved the problem ( if this is an option for anyone else it may save buying a new motor )
It's a good job I have a water softener fitted for the house supply. It does cost money but then I don't have these kinds of failures in my water based appliances (I live in London where the water is hard). Plus I usually use the dishwasher/washing machine cleaner once a month and they've given me years of reliable cleaning/washing. Enjoyed the video, keep up the good work!
Three years later, you've just saved me a lot of hassle and money. Same model dishwasher and the same problem. You've got to love RUclips. Unfortunately that particular pump is no longer available. But the unit is 15 years old. So not worth repairing anyway. But luckily I have a spare dishwasher in the garden shed. Doesn't everyone?😁
I hate it when my dishwasher stops working, even just the few days while I try and find the time to take a look can be a real inconvenience. Great video as always Vince
Make sure you top up the salt regularly. It is there to soften the water. At 2:14 you can see salt low light being on indicating there's not enough salt. Add salt even if you use 3in1 tablets. Also check your water hardness, you might get it from your water supplier, and adjust softening accordingly. There should be a table in the manual showing which setting you should use for which hardness level. Love your videos, keep them coming!
Very nice troubleshooting - as you go along - video. Congrats with your success. Wish me good luck. I have exactly the same problem, and will need to do what you just did there
Hey Vince, been following your channel fo a while and love it. This video came up randomly when searching to fix my dishwashed and I have the same kitchen cabinets, drawer handles, floor tiles, and dishwasher - which is even cracked in the same place! Crazy!
The salt reservoir inside _is_ the water softener. Does the exact same thing as a home water softener. What is common, though, is forgetting to refill the salt. Now that I have seen what it does to the pump, I will make sure I refill mine on a regular schedule.
Yes, wash pump motors often go, especially if it hasn't been used for a while. Use your dishwasher, they like it. If you don't use the washer regularly then things seize up. Well done on fixing it. You have the respect of a dishwasher engineer. 🖖
That was brilliant, well done, you did a really good diagnosis and that should last now for a good while. I can recommend Kilrock Descaler sachets, best on the UK market, 2 sachets every 6 months, highest temp with the machine empty of dishes. Well done mate.
Tjis is exactly what has happened to mine today. Checked the outlet hose which is fine, the drain pump had no obstruction so will try this fix tomor. Thanks for your vid.
That play in the impeller, is to make sure the motor runs the right way. Those induction motors can run either way. On switch on, it is 50/50 whether it starts the right way round. If it's wrong, that clutch kicks it back the right way and it then continues the right way.
Great video, just wish you would do more fault finding on the old pump. E.G.: Comparing it to the new pump to see if that play was there, or trying silicone lubricant to revitalize it.
Vince will never get rid of this dishwasher because he loves fixing it so much 😂 Gives him things to do and videos to make. In a way Vince and the washing machine are best friends and secretly discuss when vince wants the dishwasher to stop working so he can fix it again 🤔😂 Nice video vince 😁😜
Couple of tips Vince - adjust the water softener setting on the dishwasher as your water there is obviously very hard and also run a dishwasher cleaner through it regularly.
The circulating pump is the same as the Whirlpool and a lot of other brands. Mine quit cleaning or might I say I got around to fixing it the week before Christmas. I first blew out the holes in the spray arms but it still didn’t spray properly. I removed the pump an disassembled it. The bushings were worn enough the stater rubbed the side. My wife was in a hurry to have it fixed. I removed the bushings and replaced them with RC wheel ball bearings. Thou they are stainless steel I have read these will eventually rust and lock up. I have since cut two pieces of 1/2 in. Acetal rod 11mm in length. Drilled a 5mm hole in the center and mounted them in my drill press. Then turned down half, 5.5 mm to 10 mm with a small file. I kept the old bushings with the o-rings and plan to use the o-rings on my home made bushings.The old bushings were made of graphite probably to wear quickly. Acetal will out last graphite 10x. The bushings and o-rings cannot be purchased separately from appliance parts store. If the large o-ring leaks you have to buy a new pump. Not me! I’ll make my own bushings, use the o-rings from the old bushings and replace the large o-ring with a new #235 o-ring.
Brilliant video :-) Thanks for showing all the stages - and I held by breath wondering if it would work! Well done. My Beko dishwasher is not cleaning properly but its the top arm that is not rotating - so I'm going to get some dishwasher cleaner to see if that clears away any grease or grim blockages.
Thank you, clean the plastics from the motor, was dirty, different model from yours Hotpoint FD550.... and the dishwasher has been fixed.... Thank you for this video. The issue is as you said, dirt around the the part that the magnet turns.... It cost £1.50 for new jubilee clip. and an out of labour.
Vince, well done - another great bit of detective work. Please keep your 'signature' intro tune on your videos as it's quite fun - missed it on this one. Cheers.
I admire the patience of your wife. In most families you would come home to a huge parcel with a replacement dishwasher and a sticky note on top saying "Please install TODAY" :-)
I take it the missus is away for the weekend then Vince....made a right old mess of the kitchen! Quality video...cant wait until the sequel :-) Having a crack on my dishwasher tomorrow, so picked up some good tips.
My mate vice, those pumps goes bad from bushings and the liquid inside of the rotor is ferromagnetic fluid so once they fail is impossible fix it, also those pumps They commonly fail in the wash machine so prepair for dismantle one 🤣 I know it coz I repair wash machines/dishwasher machines and the common faulty is those pumps, first They start to make noise then to get stuck and the last stuff is fry the coil, in the worse case the pump frys the drain circuit in the circuit board (commonly in a samsung wash machine, in fact I hate those friking machines) So here we go my two cents
I have a similar pump on my machine. The graphite bushings had worn in an eccentric hole, causing the stator to hit the side of the casing, sometimes stalling the motor. I could not source the bushing, so I rigged a nylon drill bushing in a rubber washer at each end. It's been nearly a year and the fix is still holding with the machine used nearly every day. I had to run a reset cycle on the machine to get it to heat water again after it threw codes.
A really satisfactory repair, dishwashers are alot more complex than many people think, Ive always had Bosch models, they usually last about 10 years, Always keep the salt resorvior topped up, the water in this area of southern England is very hard.
Newer appliances seem way more over engineered than they need to be. Probably done intentionally to drive the cost up and the chance of a breakdown and deter repair.. my 25 year old Maytag dishwasher is still going strong. Its never had any repair work done to it. only the door seal was replaced and proper maintenance was done to the drain filter. BTW, I love the channel Vince! Quality content. And to anyone who reads, have a great day!
Quick troubleshooting on this one! If you had a clamp meter you could have easily tested the current draw of the pump motor safely and verified that it was drawing excessive current when the rotor wasn't turning. They allow you to test current draw without breaking the circuit as you would have to do with a standard multimeter. Cheap ones run around $20-$30. which is good enough if you just do occasional testing and don't need real accuracy. You just hook it around one wire and it reads the current through induction. Works on ac and dc. Can even help verify shorts in electronics.
Vince, thank you so much for this video. My Neff dishwasher is doing exactly the same thing as yours was. I'll be taking mine apart now as I think I can just buy the parts needed and not have to buy the whole unit 🤞
Yeah prices have gone wonky, here in the states, the pump/heater for my bosch is 300 dollars, insane price, I can pick up a maytag which is a 1500 dollar dish washer, with a simple leak, that can be fixed with a rubber o-ring for 5 dollars, I can get it for 50 bucks, tomorrow, and it's a 2019 model, but great fix mate.
Nice video! I think the scale rocks in the motor housing imbalanced it and caused the fault. To prevent this kind of faults need to do preventative maintenance once a month, like to run the machine with the descale solution.
hi mate, i love the way you explain when you put your tools onto the broken devices to repair it. i have always been following your tutorial, always awaits your new videos and for that thanks a lot. i have browsed almost all youtubers technicians or have googled many times but have never came close to my search, the search on replacement of the parts on any boards. mate, i would be very grateful if you could kindly make a video, only on "PARTS REPLACEMENT" , like if you can't find the same parts number, what parts could be used to fill up that parts, please could you?
I think its mostly trial and error. You google the model, hope for a repair diagram or parts shop... If you can't find it, you look for others from the same brand and then just compare the broken part in your hand to the pictures of the parts online. I don't think he can really "teach" this in a video, it's just taking the time to dig around the internet.
Thanks @@Apk07, i don't know but frankly i am newbies in such frames, so mechanically i can understand but when i go through pcbs, even if i find the fault, i can't replace the parts as i can't find the same parts number, so i thought there could be some ways to replace it. thanks again sir for your comments.
Vince there's a 2 part vidéo of a repair of that pump by replacing the bearing the magnetic shaft spins on so that it comes back to centre He used a ball raced bearing and it worked.. It seems the black plastic bush at the end of the shaft is a weak point good job.. but the bearing of the motor at top and bottom of the shaft is the weak point
What I always did was tap with a hamer on the pump. But those circulation pumps will stop working in the end because the play is to big and the magnet is not running central because the little hole were the axle runs in is getting worn out. So its just a Easy to replace by yourself. And indeed they are not expensive.
Hey Vince, wonderful repair. Something you may consider, I had to do with my dish washer, is verify the heating element (if your dishwasher has one) is not full of lime scale too. Had to replace both pump and heating element in my dishwasher. FYSA even though I'm American I live in the UK.
Vince, it looks like you don't have any salt in your salt tank. if you want your heating element to last longer, I would advise you to fill it up, salt in the all in one tablets is not enough for hard water areas. plus the motor you just replaced is called a recirculation pump. Good btw
Nice fix but doesn't sound like winding in that motor is failed and you can keep it as spare. My guess is that bushing/bearing on either end of rotor shaft failed, just enough to give motor hard time starting, with a "push" it will probably still work but obviously in this case that's impossible to be confirmed.
I think the motor responsible for the washing has a problem with its bearings and should be replaced , this fix will work for a couple of days if you are lucky and then the motor will stop again.
I've watched almost every single MMV video for entertainment and this is the first time I'm actually trying to fix something :D :D :D Let's see how it goes.
I opened that motor on my kenmore certain I was going to find some trash in it. Nope 😂 There was a tiny amount of grit, but nothing that should have stopped it, I wonder if the bearing actually fails when it heats up... at rest/disassembled, it seemed smooth and all.
great vlog Vince mate, but just use a dishwasher limescale and cleaner pod and clean free dishwashing.....many ppl sell them i wont get Vince into trouble, just look it up on the NET
They sell de-scaling tabs you place where the detergent/pods would normally you go. They are mostly citric acid to safely eat away at the scale without harming plastics/rubbers.
My condo was suppose to come and repair mine but have avoided it.... So I'm going to try and do this myself. The whirlpool dishwasher is brand new, it turns on fine, fills with water, detergent drawer opens... And then it just stops- no sounds- no washing. It will stay on and won't turn off without a manual turn off, which it then drains properly.... With mine not making any sound, what do you think it is?
Eventually someone who had the excact same mulfunction as me. Question now is whether I will buy a new motor or entirelly a new dishwasher considering that a motor costs 1/4 of the entire dishwasher value )))
sismofytter In North America all the counters have cut outs for dishwasher but they are not integrated so a lot of home could have a nice oak looking counters and draws and a plain white dishwasher throwing it all off lol
My dishwasher has 8 years of use, it never gave me problems, but I have two water filters installed in my house, the water here is collected from the rain, in the region where I live, I also use chlorine in the dishwasher once a month .
Greetings from Brazil.
I love your videos.
This Dishwasher is giving us some quality content.
A dishwashers isn't designed to give you QUALITY CONTENT, it's designed to give you CLEAN DISHES!
I THINK WHOEVER COMMENTED KNEW WHAT A DISHWASHER IS IT WAS JUST A JOKE
Get hold of a box of citric acid-they sell it in wilkos at the moment,it’s with all the other washing machine cleaners etc-pour half the contents in,and run it without any dishes-this stuff will dissolve any calcium build up. Well done on the diagnosing and repair-I’m a service engineer,and do this day in day out!

MyMateVince = King of fixes on RUclips. Great job.
You try to fix and use different way, finally you have fixed that👍👍👍👍👍👍
Three years later, you've just saved me a lot of hassle and money. Same model dishwasher and the same problem. You've got to love RUclips.
Unfortunately that particular pump is no longer available. But the unit is 15 years old. So not worth repairing anyway.
But luckily I have a spare dishwasher in the garden shed. Doesn't everyone?😁
my dad's been collecting the f'n things since before i showed up. im gonna be pulling them out of my sheds for a week when the time comes XD
I felt your joy when you fixed it, I think I have the same exact issue.
I hate it when my dishwasher stops working, even just the few days while I try and find the time to take a look can be a real inconvenience. Great video as always Vince

Water filter and a water softener may be a good investment for longevity.
The salt reservoir inside _is_ the water softener. Does the exact same thing as a home water softener.
What is common, though, is forgetting to refill the salt. Now that I have seen what it does to the pump, I will make sure I refill mine on a regular schedule.
Also, check if the drain filter doesn't have any big holes, since that would cause any gunk from the dishes to go back into the circulation pump.
Yes, wash pump motors often go, especially if it hasn't been used for a while. Use your dishwasher, they like it. If you don't use the washer regularly then things seize up. Well done on fixing it. You have the respect of a dishwasher engineer. 🖖

Excelent fix Vince. Took a risk buying it and paid off! Very satisfying haha i could feel it in your voice. Congrats!
The dishwasher is probably his biggest fan.. Keeps creating content for free :P
Well done Vince. It shows that persistence pays off👍

You are like the better Tim Taylor from Home Improvement. Keep at it!
He‘s probably just got more Power.
I would have pulled out the other pump and give that a clean. Have you tried some vinegar or citric acid to dissolve scale?
My pump had a piece of plastic inside!!. Removed and solved the problem of no draining water!!
I admire the patience of your wife. In most families you would come home to a huge parcel with a replacement dishwasher and a sticky note on top saying "Please install TODAY" :-)
Just so you know I’m 11 and I’m so inspired by your videos and I think you should keep doing what you’re doing because it’s gonna be a great career
I am 11 too
I am 11 nearly 12
I take it the missus is away for the weekend then Vince....made a right old mess of the kitchen!

Thanks for this! Gave me some insight as to what was going on with my dishwasher and it seemed to have worked ✋🏼✋🏼
If my dishwasher lay nonfunctional for 5 months while I continually make “fix” videos, my wife would drop a bowling ball on my head in my sleep.
Do not forget: the video series is called TRYING to fix. Not sure but there is a slight chance of going horribly wrong with water damage... 😆
If your dishwasher was nonfunctional for 5 months she wouldn’t be able to drop a bowling ball on your head 😉
Cory Engel tell her to buy a new one and avoid spending the rest of her life incarcerated with vermin.
Try washing by hand dude you any idea the chemicals in dishwasher cleaner and you are eating off those plates.
Lmao!
A really satisfactory repair, dishwashers are alot more complex than many people think, Ive always had Bosch models, they usually last about 10 years, Always keep the salt resorvior topped up, the water in this area of southern England is very hard.
Very good Vince 👍🏻 I've got the exact same dishwasher myself but hopefully mine stays trouble free. Will know what to do though if it plays up 👍🏻
Eventually Vince that machine will be full of replacement parts with no original parts at all, great video
Newer appliances seem way more over engineered than they need to be. Probably done intentionally to drive the cost up and the chance of a breakdown and deter repair.. my 25 year old Maytag dishwasher is still going strong. Its never had any repair work done to it. only the door seal was replaced and proper maintenance was done to the drain filter. BTW, I love the channel Vince! Quality content.

I'm a bit late, but I had to fix the drain pump on my two year old dishwasher. It only cost about $15 for a new pump on eBay. Now it works like new!
Vince, thank you so much for this video. My Neff dishwasher is doing exactly the same thing as yours was. I'll be taking mine apart now as I think I can just buy the parts needed and not have to buy the whole unit 🤞
Yeah prices have gone wonky, here in the states, the pump/heater for my bosch is 300 dollars, insane price, I can pick up a maytag which is a 1500 dollar dish washer, with a simple leak, that can be fixed with a rubber o-ring for 5 dollars, I can get it for 50 bucks, tomorrow, and it's a 2019 model, but great fix mate.
Had this exact same issue. Cleaning the gunk around the shaft fixed the issue. Luckily I didn’t have to buy a replacement.
Excellent video yet again. Well done.

Cant wait to see trying to fix a none draining dishwasher next week
Enjoyed. Wish he had read the ohms on the new motor. Curious if it would have been north of 48 Ohms as a good indication.
Dishwasher fixing? Check! Very interesting to see a dishwasher like this.
Good fix Vince.!
Hey Vince, wonderful repair. Something you may consider, I had to do with my dish washer, is verify the heating element (if your dishwasher has one) is not full of lime scale too. Had to replace both pump and heating element in my dishwasher. FYSA even though I'm American I live in the UK.
Vince V the 'Appliance of Science'.
10oz gloves. No headguards.
Someone is going to get hurt!
You can fix a pair of nail clippers and I would still watch it lol.love your videos
The play you felt was the impeller worked free from the shaft, the humming was the shaft turning on it's own.
Genius - Well sussed out and good fix
As always, your perseverence and courage is amazing.
BRILLIANT , THANKS FOR POSTING . SUBSCRIBED TODAY . 🤠👍👍👍👍👍
I just spent my Sunday morning watching Vince sod around with an old dishwasher 🤣
The propeller broke free from the shaft do to the calcium buildup
Nice fix Vince
Freddy Boswell. There's a name I haven't heard in years! 😂 I used to love Bread.
@My Mate vince you are oh yeah man of many talents 👍
Vince, it looks like you don't have any salt in your salt tank. if you want your heating element to last longer, I would advise you to fill it up, salt in the all in one tablets is not enough for hard water areas. plus the motor you just replaced is called a recirculation pump. Good btw

another great video mate, well done on the fix. Keep the great content coming
i appreciate your video, thanks👍👍👍
I opened that motor on my kenmore certain I was going to find some trash in it. Nope 😂
There was a tiny amount of grit, but nothing that should have stopped it, I wonder if the bearing actually fails when it heats up... at rest/disassembled, it seemed smooth and all.
Great fix. Can you buy a descaling tablet and run a wash with it just to clear all the limescale?
Well done vince.
great vlog Vince mate, but just use a dishwasher limescale and cleaner pod and clean free dishwashing.....many ppl sell them i wont get Vince into trouble, just look it up on the NET
I live in a hard water area and do this treatment once a month, it helps saves the internals , seals and the pump.
Hi Vince,
Which motor (pump) did you took out ? The washing one or the drain one ??
It appears my Blanco Dishwasher has the same problem .
Thanks
Love these trying to fix videos, especially the Switch ones!
Me too
The "Motor" on the water inlet is a SOLENOID VALVE! It opens and closes electrically.
Great video this dishwasher has a lot of problems 😔
They sell de-scaling tabs you place where the detergent/pods would normally you go. They are mostly citric acid to safely eat away at the scale without harming plastics/rubbers.
If the softener is correct adjusted, you will not have any scale in the machine.
My condo was suppose to come and repair mine but have avoided it.... So I'm going to try and do this myself. The whirlpool dishwasher is brand new, it turns on fine, fills with water, detergent drawer opens... And then it just stops- no sounds- no washing. It will stay on and won't turn off without a manual turn off, which it then drains properly....
With mine not making any sound, what do you think it is?
nice one old mate vince.... another victory over the gremlins that break stuff well done
cheers

Yes it's the worn bushings for the spindle. It's a design flaw in this type of pump.
Eventually someone who had the excact same mulfunction as me. Question now is whether I will buy a new motor or entirelly a new dishwasher considering that a motor costs 1/4 of the entire dishwasher value )))
Is the water going from the salt dispenser to the circulation pump? Or is dropped into the machine from the thingy on top of the salt dispenser?
I like that your dishwasher is hidden with in the cabinetry
It's normal in europe it's the same with the refrigerator
sismofytter In North America all the counters have cut outs for dishwasher but they are not integrated so a lot of home could have a nice oak looking counters and draws and a plain white dishwasher throwing it all off lol
