Right part and easy repair
The web site indicated this was probably the part I needed and it was right! A neighbor and I installed it and the dishwasher is working perfectly!

Easy repair with the video. Ordered the pump too and changed both
This plus the pump was a super easy fix to our dishwasher and way cheaper than a new one or a plumber (who didn’t know how to change it and said we needed a dishwasher repairman). Definitely can’t say enough about how easy and cost effective this is with the videos.

Did not have to replace.
I ordered this part not knowing if was part of the sub-pump. Which I did replace. It was pretty easy to do. Now the water drains from tge dishwasher. I have two flapper valves that are new. Hopefully I will never have to replace those.

Dishwasher would only 'partially' drain; dishes needed more rinsing.
Called repairman: announced that the drain pump was gone. Did not seem right. Went to the website. Found what I was looking for. 49% of the time it was a check-valve issue; only 26% of the time was the pump the problem. Took the unit from under the counter; got it on its side; removed the drain pump. Found my first check-valve, but thedi

Quarter-inch nut driver and a screw driver and the valves were in and the drain pump re-installed. Most difficult in my case was getting the dw back into its spot and lashed down! Thanks for the good guidance!
Thought it might be check flapper valve on drain pump, so I replaced fairly easily, per instructions. When doing, I noticed the attached relay wires were not secure. When it was on the drain cycle one of the relay wires vibrated badly and loosened the connection enough to only work occasionaly. Would like to put new relay on the pump bu

2" of water left in bottom after cycle
I could not have accomplished this repair without this site. It lead me not only to the problem but what parts would be needed. Since the pump worked okay I decided the water must be draining back from the hose since the bottom of the washer was lower than the discharge point of the drain hose. I thought there must be a check valve somep
... Read morelace. When I found PartSelect it was easy to go to the brand of dishwasher, model number, symptom and lots of advice from people with the same repair in the past. I decided to go with the piston and nut assemble (check valve) and the valve flapper. On the web site there was a blowup diagram that showed where the part was and advice on how to properly install the parts. When I looked at the old check valve and the new one you could easily see that was the problem. Replacing the flapper was added insurance.
Removed the dishwasher from the cabinet. Turned it on it's top side. Removed the exit hose from the pump with a nut driver and replaced the flapper. Reconnected the hose to the pump.
About 4 inches of standing water in bottom of dishwasher
First I replaced the flapper valve of of off the water pump. That worked for a couple of days, then the standing water was back. After more research at your site I ran across other person who had the same problem and they ended up replacing the piston and valve assembly. After pulling the dishwasher out I was able to find where these part
... Read mores were located. The piston's rubber part was half gone. I replaced it and the gasket and another flapper valve. This model has two flapper valves. One difficulty was that you have to replace the screen inside the dishwasher before you replace the housing that the piston fits in. Your site and other folks contributing their stories helphed me to solve our problem. The dishwasher works like new now. Thanks. Ralph Naddeo.

No Plumer could help me. No one heard of a dishwasher check valve. My dishwasher was an ISA. I was lost until i found the relationship to Kitchenaid. Then sears. Vuela!

Standing water after cycle
Easy. I removed the dishwasher and all water from inside. After laying the dishwasher on floor, the valve flapper was installed using a pair of pliers.

Parts were easy to install after laying the dishwasher down on its front to access the bottom back side. Hooked everything back up and slid it back under the countertop and away it went. Had one small leak after running (water in line wasn't tight enough). A twist with a pair of pliers and that was resolved. Fast shipping by the way! I paid a little more for the exit washer than I wanted to, but with shipping only from one source and delivery of parts at the same time made downtime as little as possible. I'm sure I saved $100 dollars or so by using this website for parts and tech info. And recovered a precious stone to boot.

My dishwasher won't drain. How do I determine if the pump needs to be replaced or if I just need the valve?
For model number GLD4400N10BB
Hi Tina,
Thank you for your inquiry. You can test both parts with a multi-meter to see if they are functioning correctly. A normal pump should read about 200 ohms when you are testing it. You will have to remove the pump and the valve from your appliance to test these parts. If you can not comfortable doing this yourself, I would suggest calling in a repair technician. Good luck with your repair.

Symptoms: Water stays on bottom. Some water stays on flipped placed upside-down dishes/glassware.Cycling good. Not sure if pump working or not. What do i need to buy to make sure it will solve the problem? Flapper? Pump? Thanks in advance
For model number PDW7880J01SS
Hello Joseph, Thank you for your inquiry. You can check the flappers for any cracks and damage and make sure it's not stuck closed. Make sure there are no clogs or cracks in the drain hoses. You can also test the pump with a multimeter to see if it has continuity. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, there are YouTube videos available to assist you. Hope this helps!

Partselect number ps258167 check valve flapper I see that there are (2) on this pump. In your videos it shows just the one being replaced which I did. I ran a cycle completed to heat drying and looked at the base of the tub with no standing water like before and figured all was solved. Later my daughter sent me a photo a couple hours since I had left and she opened the dishwasher to find it having standing water again? Could this be a result of the other flapper being bad too? Let me know.
For model number PDW8280J10SS
Hello Rick, Thank you for the question. If your model has two flappers, both should be replaced. We hope this helps!
