A Whirlpool dishwasher in North Canton wasn’t running properly — it said it was running but water wasn’t going into the parts to spin. We found the water circulation pump had failed, preventing proper water flow throughout the wash cycle.
The Problem
The dishwasher will not run. It says that it’s running but the water is not going into the parts to spin. The customer’s dad looked at it and said that there is water going into the dishwasher but it seems to just be a small amount and sit at the bottom of the dishwasher.
Diagnosis
The water circulation pump had failed. While the dishwasher was receiving some water, the pump wasn’t functioning to circulate it through the spray arms and wash system, leaving water sitting stagnant at the bottom of the tub.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: W11085683 — water circulation pump and motor
- Work performed: Replaced the water circulation pump
- Result: Issue is resolved
Is It Worth Repairing?
This 2020 Whirlpool dishwasher is relatively new and well worth repairing. Pump failures can happen on any dishwasher, but this model should provide many more years of reliable service with the new circulation pump installed.
Maintenance Tips for Whirlpool Dishwashers
- Clean the filter at the bottom of the tub monthly to prevent debris from reaching the pump
- Run hot water at your kitchen sink before starting the dishwasher to ensure proper wash temperature
- Use rinse aid to improve drying performance and reduce water spots on dishes
