When running it sounds like a relay is clicking when the water is going through the jets and doesn't clean very well. What might you thing it is? Could it be the diverter motor?
For model number LDF5678SS
Hello Rick, Thank you for your inquiry. First check and clean the spray arms to make sure they are not clogged. Since the diverter motor controls the flow of water to the spray arms, you can test it with a multimeter to see if it is failing. If you are unfamiliar with how a multimeter functions, we have videos available to assist you. Good luck with your repair.
Sounds like a whining, grinding motor. What needs to be replaced?
For model number LDF5678SS
Hi James, thank you for reaching out. We have found that the issue is with the drain pump, part number PS12076726. We would recommend replacing the pump to fix the issue. Good luck with your repair!
Replacing this pump is pretty easy. Disconnect the power and drain hose, and pull your dishwasher out from the counter. Lay it on its side on a towel. There WILL be spillage. Disconnecting the pump is simple. There are a couple hoses, one single wire connection (the thermistor) and one multi-wire plug. The pump is held in place by a pair of thick rubber holders which can be pulled off by hand. That's it!
After removing the pump, I disassembled it to find out why these fail so soon. It's a very poor design. I found that the nose of the electric motor, where the bearings are located, sits in a plastic cup formed by the top of the pump body. Any leakage from the pump around the motor shaft will be held in place against the motor bearing. It has no place to go. This causes rusting of the bearing. I expect I'll be replacing this one in a few years. :(
But kudos to PartsSelect for getting the right pump assembly for me, after getting the wrong one from another supplier!
This was my first time repairing a dishwasher. I watched YouTube on how to remove the dishwasher from the cabinet. Afterwards, I removed the bottom of the dishwasher while it was laying flat to get to the motor and micro switch. The only difficulty I had was getting to the motor which required taking the bottom section off of the dishwasher. I could not get an appliance repair company to work on an LG dishwasher. My only option was to repair the dishwasher or bought a new dishwasher. Therefore, my wife and I decided to , make an attempt to repair this one with a backup plan of buying a new one. Luckily, we were able to fix this one within two hours.
This was a $999 dishwasher. We saved the cost of a new dishwasher by taking the time to fix this one.
Ordered the roller from Parts Select, slid the roller over the little spindle sticking out of the bottom rack and snapped it in place. Job done in less than one minute.
