if its a bit to tight and you cant get it out you can losen the phillips screws a bit. I started removing headlight assembly before i checked another vid
Thanks for the tip
❤❤❤
It's seldom I comment on videos but I had to just take a minute and say THANK YOU. I have this same dishwasher and had done all the easy steps from other videos, which didn't resolve the issue. Pulled the pump today and found plastic debris clogging it up. Cleaned it out, reassembled, and waa-la! Cleaning like a new one again. Great instructions, very well done. I had to use a standard hose clamp, Home Depot didn't have a crimp clamp the right size. I'll keep an eye on that for leaks but so far so good. Thank you again, appreciate the effort you put into this video.
Awesome, so glad you got it fixed, thanks for the comment! 😁
Thanks for this, was the second issue for me. Love the video!
Awesome! Thanks so much for the feedback, all the best to you! 😁
Must of been absent that day cuz I had no idea different places had different boiling points 🤯
The 20Mechanic does not work.
You're right. It worked a couple days ago, I'll look into it ...
One thing to try: Choosing the "Other Sellers" option and selecting "Hongnacom" may help. "20Mechanic" may work as a promo code for 20% discount. If that doesn't work, sometimes there is a 15% off coupon to clip. Good luck, hope it helps.

Super interesting thing: I had the DL error message, tried everything, then ran the self diagnostic that you demonstrated… suddenly my washer drained and now it’s working fine.
Sweet! Hope it stays fixed!
Super easy to do but my corolla is so low to the ground that it makes it difficult
Yeah, a real tight fit without ramps or a jack/jackstands.
Thank you so much, I would’ve broke a lot of my car down this with mout the video
Nice! Glad it helped! 😁
Thanks for this. Thought I had a fault battery, instead I found a blockage.
Excellent! Glad it worked!
Millions of dishwashers, pump motors go to landfill due to a cheap $.50 graphite bearing failure. It ought to be a crime.

Does anyone by chance know if this will work with the UK models
I bought one from AliExpress. But now I’m facing with the problem that I can’t find my car (seat exeo) please help 😂 my volume on the steeringwheel doesn’t work
just got quoted 400 for this but after seeing the cost for the parts and extra stuff i need to buy to fix it like wrenches and stuff i just decided to pay the 400. i would have fixed it if i already had the extra parts. maybe if it happens again but it literally lasted 15 years without a fix so hopefully this one last a good while again. but anyways good video.
Thanks for the feedback! Good to know an approximate price for the repair from a qualified shop. All the best! 👍
these engines come with defect from 08 to 07 have problem consuming oil Honda problem dealer problem
If you bought it from temu then it’s 8888
It looks so easy to do & taste so delicious.
Right on, go for it! 👍
hey great video! Question, i have same pump but my PSI level much higher then yours, is that ok? if not how to lower it?
If I recall, 4-8 psi is normal range. If higher than that, you may need to clean the filter media, or switch to a coarser media. Also, make sure all the valves are all the way fully open. Good luck!
You the man!!
Hi i have installed the stereo but the volume button on the steering wheel doesnt work. Could you help me solve this problem?
Tahnk you! Exactly what I was looking for. I appreciate hearing what did not work too! It saved me a few cusses
Awesome, glad it helped! 😃
How do I get these settings my different
Thank you!!!!
Is it possible to take apart and clean out the pump without needing to disconnect the hose clamps? I don't think I'll be able to reclamp mine
It'd be tricky. I think they're intended to be single use. You can replace those with a normal metal hose clamp, or the tool and a couple clamps is pretty inexpensive: amzn.to/3XlMzx2 Good luck!
Thank you this is really helpful, I’ll give this a try to troubleshoot mine :)
Great, good luck, hope it works out! 👍
i just installed one of these android units on a 2012 camry and im having a problem with the volume , volume signal goes up and down in the screen but the actual sound stay on max the whole time wonder if anybody ran into this issue before
I have and 05 accord hybrid, my concern is the ac system it’s tied to the radio. Had it fixed already, but can I still install and after market head unit
Thanks for the video. What dept ia your pool
You're welcome! My pool is 4 ft deep.
great tips, my issue is the part of the latch is missing is what the catch latches on to. :( any tips for repairing this?
Oh bummer! Probably best off replacing that whole piece: amzn.to/47i7Mwq Good luck! Hope you get it fixed!
Disconnecting the wiring harness makes it a lot easier to get to the bolts on the inlet pipe. Removing the battery will give you extra room. It’s not strictly necessary, but it does make it easier. With those out of the way, I was able to get my fingers on all the bolts and wasn’t fumbling around blind. Dorman makes a metal coolant inlet pipe upgrade. It’s available on Amazon and not much more than the plastic one.
Good tips, thanks for the feedback!
Totally helped- my filter had so much clogged in it- I didn't know the filter came apart lol Thank you so much!🇨🇦
Rock on, eh, glad it helped!
awesome job. I didn't have thread locker so I put that glue on the hex screw hope that doesn't come back to bite me later.
It should work, I like the ingenuity!
I followed the step why the self testing not starting
Loving the Charlie Brown esque music 😂
hey there. it's my first time doing DIY and I wanted to try this on my S10+ because the repairman accidentally had his fingerprint inside the glass and it makes photos blurry. is there any way I can gently crack the glass instead of using a drill? kinda scares me 🥲
Could also carefully pry at the edge with a razor blade, good luck!
@@PracticalMechanic should i heat the adhesive so i can remove the glass easily?
@acklzzz yes, that would be best. Just don't over do it. Use a hair dryer or similar. Getting it too hot could cause other problems.
@@PracticalMechanic thank you so much!
Can the k20 compressor work on the k24?
Thanks a lot. How do you store the pump end of season? Does the filter material have to be dry? Btw i use glass as filter media
Yes, remove the water from the reservoir, and dry the filter media for storage. You can store it in the (dry) tub, or somewhere else to be reused. Drain and store the pump and tubing somewhere dry where it will not get damaged, such as a garage or basement. Good luck! 👍
I was fighting the bearing and backing plate on my ES330 so hard... That trick with the bolts and washers was pure gold. I was able to get it to move a little bit, then I kind of hit a wall because the bolts kept slipping, so then I tapped it around with a hammer after that and it came right out. Whereas before, hammering was doing nothing. A combination of techniques was definitely necessary. Thanks again and I hope this helps others.
Great, glad to hear, thanks for the tip!
This does not apply to 2006-2007. These years have an air box under the intake that is a whole different animal
I love maple syrup 🍁🍁🍁
Right on, me too!
Really helpful, thanks so much!
You're welcome, glad it helped!
Is the gps preloaded or do you have to pay for it. Is there a cd player in it. My 07 v6 cd player broke
This unit already has the GPS in it. There's no cd player, unfortunately!
U don’t have to cut extra holes just unscrew the 2 things in the radio and move it over
great video! you saved me a ton of money, just learning how to remove the pump and check it - turns out mine had an obstruction stuck in the impeller. Here's to hoping the resistance didn't burn up the motor. Just need to buy a new crimp clamp and put it back together and test!
Excellent! Glad to hear it!
Thumbs up for the classical music.
