what causes this part to leak? is there any other part I may need to replace?
For model number 66512833k311
Hello Denis, thank you for contacting us. The diverter motor leaks either because of a faulty diffuser, part number PS11755348, or the diverter motor itself is damaged. We would suggest checking the diffuser before replacing the motor. Customer service is available 7 days a week if you require assistance placing an order. Thanks again for reaching out!

My dishwasher is dripping from what appears to be the bottom of the diverter motor, is it that part i should replace?
For model number KDTM404EBS0
Hi Greg, thank you for your inquiry. If your dishwasher is leaking from the motor area, then most probably the diverter motor, part number PS11730993, is damaged. A dishwasher's diverter motor operates a diverter disc to redirect the water to the upper spray arm or arms. If the motor itself is damaged, it can potentially leak water behind the lower access panel. Inspect the motor housing for any cracks, if it is faulty, you may need to replace the diverter motor. We hope this information helps!

The dish washer is operating fine put without pulling the unit out completely it appears to be leaking (drips) from the bottom of the motor. Is this a possibility? Thanks,
For model number KDTM404EBL0
Hi Albert, thank you for the question. Yes, it is possible for a dishwasher to leak from the bottom of the motor. This could be due to a faulty seal, a cracked component, or a loose connection. We would suggest checking the drain hose for any damage. If it is fine, the issue could be with the impeller and seal kit, part number PS11703322. You may need to replace it to fix the issue. We hope this solves your problem!
My Kitchenaid Dishwasher is 7 years old and has been well cared for. I just discovered a meaningful leak coming from I believe the diverter motor under the washer. I dont know if it just needs a new "diffuser" of the difuser motor as well. Do you think it's worth repairing the unit with both the diffuser and the diverter motor or just get a new dish washer?
For model number KDTM704ESSO
Hello Tom, thank you for your question. The diverter motor leaks either because of a faulty diffuser, part number PS11755348, or the diverter motor PS11730993 itself is damaged. We would suggest checking the diffuser before replacing the motor. We hope this helps.

The lower dynamic wash arm does not rotate. Error E4 F9 shows. Is the diverter motor the part I need?
For model number KDTM404ESS3
Hi Robert, thank you for reaching out. The E4-F9 error code indicates a lower spray arm error. To troubleshoot it, shut off the power to the dishwasher for 5 minutes. If the code resumes when you restore power, check for obstructions blocking the lower spray arm from turning. Check the wiring connections on the lower spray arm motor. If the wiring is intact, replace the lower spray arm, part number PS11731499. We hope this solves your problem!
Overwhelming burning rubber type smell when water coming in or going out
For model number GU2400XTPS6 Whirlpool Dishwasher
Hi Christine, thank you for your question! Your dishwasher has a heating element that is used to heat up water and to speed up moisture removal from your dishes and your appliance's interior. If you notice a burning plastic smell coming from your dishwasher while it is in use, it could be the case that plastic has come into contact with the heating element. A clogged or dirty filter can also lead to a burning smell in the dishwasher. If food particles and debris build up in the filter, they can become overheated and emit a burning odor. Loose or damaged wiring can also cause electrical issues in your dishwasher. Check for any frayed wires or loose connections and tighten them if necessary. Inspect the heating element, part number PS8260087, in your dishwasher for any signs of damage or wear. If you notice any cracks or breaks in the element, it will need to be replaced. We hope this information helps!
