Wanted to say thank you. Dishwasher stopped draining. Followed these instructions and found a tiny chicken bone jamming the motor. I really appreciate your work! Thank you! Now to go talk to kids about RINSING PLATES.
You're welcome. Thank you for the positive comments!
My GE dishwasher was making the grinding noise very similar to your dishwasher... I did exactly what you did and It was a button! A BUTTON! I had to show my wife right away and share your video. Not sure what a button is doing in the drain area, but it was there.
Too funny!!!
Actually you saved me another $65...I didn't even think about taking the old pump apart until I saw your video. It had pieces of broken glass inside which was causing it to vibrate really loud and cease up at times. I was able to clean the glass out and it works fine now. Plan on returning the new pump I bought...Thx bro!
Thanks so much! I found the offending piece of broken plate that made it into the motor! $0 fix but a fortune in self-esteem and confidence!
Awesome, am glad that it helped. Self esteem and confidence are great things to have!
Thank you for the video.
At first I wondered what would bring a piece like a button inside the pump housing.
Just before I through it the the garabage I decided to do the same thing, I removed the pump and deassembled it to find a piece of chipped glass jamming the pump impeller.
I removed it and now works perfectly and saved $500.
Thank you! This was the best video of the dozens I've watched! From behind to end simple and understandable without needless talking!
Glad it was helpful!
Our GE dishwasher started leaking and I could see that it was because it wasn't draining. Tried all of the easy stuff, like checked for a clogged hose. Called for a technician. $75 service call. Motor $100+. Estimated time to replace motor was 2 hours, at $80/hr. At $335, I could replace it for another $200. Was about to give up, but then I saw this video and I saw how easy it was to take the motor apart. Went back, pulled the dishwasher out, turned it on its back, disconnected the motor from the hoses, but had a hard time disconnecting the motor's wiring, so I just removed the screws and VOILA! There was a piece of plastic that was causing the impeller to stick. I also noticed a build up of what looked like powdered detergent. Cleaned the motor, and connected the dishwasher to electricity to see if I could get the impeller to rotate (at this point, I wasn't sure if the motor had burned out). It spun! I put everything back together and ran a cycle. Worked like it was brand new! Thanks!!!!
Thank you very much! You just saved my weekend. I have the exact same dishwasher. The water wasn't draining, and the pump wasn't turning on at all. After watching your video, I decided to try fixing it myself. The pump smelled a little burnt when I removed it, so that was definitely the problem. I found the genuine part at my local appliance repair store, WD19X25180. Important for people: unscrew and save the large metal counterweight from the old pump - it doesn't come with the new pump. Followed the directions from this video exactly. Boom. Dishwasher fixed!!! THANK YOU.
Awesome, glad I could help you out!
Another grateful viewer - I'd tip you for saving me so much money lol! Coffee mug chip was the culprit. A little piece was also down in the sump I couldn't get to but I think I crushed it up enough with a screwdriver for it to pass. Thank you so much!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching!
You are the man! Been looking for a solution for four days when I came across this today. There was a piece of metal that must've come out of nowhere that had blocked mine. Fell out of the pump when I popped it open. Thanks a ton!!
You're welcome, glad to help!
Thank you! I also found a broken piece of dish in the motor. So glad the dishwasher war is over!
I am very happy that it helped. Thank you for watching.
I am having trouble with the wiring can't seem to disconnect the old motor from the wiring. Sat back down with washer found the tab to push and pump released from wiring. Put it all back together it is now Working! Totally back in business. Thank you.
Thank you! This video saved me hundreds and saved GE Profile from getting a nasty gram from me. My pump issue was broken plate chards jamming it! I removed and cleaned it out, bought a new hose clamp to replace the crimp clamp and back into action, good as new!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I was able to restore my GE dishwasher back to its formal working and drying self. I took my time by even cleaning and sanitizing all the removal parts, with this being the case , it took me about 45 minutes. If I didn't wash the parts 30 minutes start to finish. One suggestion to others , my unit happen to have a hole at the 3:00 o'clock position which I covered with a paper towel so that my hex screws would not accidentally fall in there thus cause and major rip up the whole machine and a trip to the hardware store. Thanks again for your confidence in us sort of do it your selfers !
Thank you! There was a piece of a plate that chipped off and ended up in there!
Crazy that so many other comments mention small objects.
I wonder how they get through the filters.
Thank you again! I had tried a few other things and was going to give up!
I am happy that it helped, thank you for watching!
Great vid! A .5" chip of porcelain crockery shot out when I gave it a blast of air. Saved me $85 dollars for a new motor. Thanks.
You're welcome, glad that it helped.
Excellent video! The best I watched. Watching it gave us the confidence to take it apart and find the small piece that was blocking the pump. Saved us so much money to be able to DIY. Thank you!!
I'm very happy that helped!
Thank you for the detailed video! In my case, instead of a button, there was a piece of glass blocking the motor.
I'm happy that it helped. Thank you for watching.
Im amazed by all of the comments about debris in pump. A well designed filter should prevent that.
Excellent video. Gave me the courage and info to pull the motor and pump, take them apart, and ascertain that they were fine. Then I checked the hose and found it was blocked. Now we're back to normal, and it cost nothing. Whew!
Glad that it helped, thanks for watching!
Thank you. Piece of broken glass in my pump. In-case anyone didn't notice he used a new hose clamp when putting the pump back on.
Thanks for the video! I am not a handy guy but was able to find what was clogging the pump and saved some money.
Awesome, glad that it helped!
I’m about to tackle it on the same model. I definitely hear the same rattling sound and I did pull out a piece of China from the drain hose. Might be another piece that can’t get by. Hopefully it all goes well
Exactly same dishwasher we have and making the exact same noise. Confirmed it’s coming from the pump now just need to pull it off to see if there is something in it or a broken impeller.
Thank you!!! This video was perfect. Found my problem stuck in the impeller.
I'm happy that it helped.
I just wanted to add to all the comments of appreciation for the useful, clear video. I want to point out that I found a glass shard that had blocked the pump, but just in the bottom of the drain without pulling out the dishwasher and getting at the pump from underneath. Might you have found the button that way, without removing the dishwasher? Or was it further down, inaccessible from inside the dishwasher? In any case, thanks, again. I lift a clean glass to toast you!
I don't think so, it was further down in the system.
Thank you, I did it without removing the washer from cabinet. I did unplug it . undid the clamps pulled the assembly off the rod dropped it down and disconnect the plug. Can't attached picture . but it was a plastic piece ~ 3/4" X 7/16" . No Idea where it cam from.
You're welcome, I am glad that the video helped you out.
Turned out to be cherry pits inside the drain pump. Thanks for the vid. I never woulda done it without yr vid. 🤝
Awesome, glad that it helped.
This is the exact video I was looking for it gave me the confidence to go do the replacement thank yoiu.
I am glad that it helped, thanks for watching.
Awesome vid. I sincerely appreciate you doing this. I just saved $150 at least.
Glad I could help
Should of watched this video first and saved me some money.
Thank you so much for sharing this video! I just replace my drain pump watching this and it made it so easy to do!
So I was having a similar issue except mine would not even try to drain.. watched this vid and It gave me an idea 💡. tap on the drain mechanism lightly with the handle of a screwdriver while it was in drain mode and wallah it took off like a champ..mine was just stuck from being unused for a couple of months I think..So push and hold the start button after the dishwasher is full and running. Then start tapping the side of the drain mechanism from underneath and hopefully like mine it takes off
Thank you for taking the time to make this DIY video... following your guide, I was able to fix the pump!
I'm glad to hear that you found it useful and thank you for watching my channel.
Thanks! No buttons, but a piece of broken glass binding up my motor.
You're welcome, I am glad the video helped you out.
Thanks for posting! I found my button and the dishwasher's working again.
Lol, too funny! I still want to know how that button got there...or maybe I'm better off not knowing.
@@TwoKeysStudio Finally identified my "button". It was the protective cover on a battery terminal for my 3 yr. old daughter's battery-powered car... I'm sure this problem won't resurface any time soon. LOL
@@MortarHead That is too funny! Glad the video helped you out/
Also, check your air gap to be sure it’s not full of gunk
Thank you
You're welcome!
Mine will not allow me to open the unit :( I'm guessing that's why these fail.so much now, even if it's a small item the lack of screws make this unable to open up :(
The wires for the pump are held in by some metal clips. I removed the white keeper, but the wires won't come out.
We just bought my ge profile. It was marked down looked brand spanking new. Installed it. Ran a load.. worked just fine. Go to do a second load a few days later.. selected the cycle, pressed start. Closed the door, and nothing.. display stays dark bit all the other lights are on but it won't run a cycle. I hold the start button to cancel and the display lights back up. But it never makes any sounds.. we have been working in it for days and at one point it lit up as if it was going thru a drying cycle. I'm so confused
The model number on the dishwasher in the video is a bit different than on my dishwasher.
My model is: GDF520PGD1CC
From the video, I see very little difference between the 2 models.
Can anyone tell me if there are significant differences between the 2 models.
Mine leaks from the larger pump connection.
Hi, I am having the no draining issue even I hear the pump is running. 9 out of 10 times the pumps runs without water coming out but occasionally I do get draining and the pump running noise is slightly different. What could possibly be the cause? I took out the pump, there is no stuck at all. I see some ppl mentioning a stuck drain solenoid, but it seems this model doesn’t have a solenoid on it?
Check the drain line from the dishwasher to your sink drain. Mine would occasionally would get clogged and prevent it from draining.
I have the same issue with the dishwasher flooding. Can it also be a Flood switch malfunctioning.
Tthhhaaannkkk you!!! You saved my life 🙏🤗
You're welcome, I'm glad that it helped.
At the 5:53 mark, how do you disconnect that hose clamp? Mine seems to be really tight. It looks like you just twisted it off. Does it need to be loosened? Thanks. The video is helpful
As I recall that was a band type clamp and I cut it off, then replaced it with a new worm gear clamp.
How did that button make it psst the filters?
I have no idea. I was very surprised when it fell out.
My Bosch dishwasher classixx is not heating up.
How could such a big button go past the filter?
I have no idea. It might have happened during manufacturing???
My dishwasher is pooling and i don't hear the drain pump coming on at all during the cycle so does that mean its obviously the drain pump motor?
That is where I would start.
I have one from 2018 drian pump went bad chagend it now wont run do i need to reset it after that ?
The only reset that I am aware of is pressing and holding the start button. Not sure if that will help.
@@TwoKeysStudio ya iv tried that stupid computers lol
I just ended up paying 160$ for something stuck in that propeller . Wish i watched this video earlier 😔😔
GE is a terrible product
