W11414076 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Circulation Pump Motor Assembly
The W11414076 is a Genuine OEM Whirlpool replacement circulation pump and motor assembly compatible with a wide range of Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, Kenmore, and Ikea dishwashers. The circulation pump is the heart of the wash system — it pressurizes and delivers water to the spray arms, driving the jets that blast food and residue off your dishes throughout the wash and rinse cycles. When the circulation pump fails, cleaning performance collapses: dishes come out dirty or unrinsed, water pressure at the spray arms drops, and the machine may make loud droning or grinding noises.
This is a complete circulation pump and motor assembly. Common causes of failure include worn motor bearings (which produce a continuous drone that gets louder over time), deteriorated impellers, and seal breakdowns. As a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications, the W11414076 is the current production part that supersedes W11122133. It also replaces AP6980104, EAP12745416, PS12745416, 4958907, and OEM20940317. Note: this assembly does not include the drain pump — your existing drain pump transfers over to the new assembly during installation. Installs in 45–90 minutes with basic hand tools (the dishwasher must be pulled out and laid on its back to access the pump).

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher and Shut Off Water Before Starting — Wear Work Gloves — Major Access Required Disconnect power at the breaker and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves to protect your hands. This is a more involved repair because the circulation pump is on the bottom of the dishwasher. Throw the circuit breaker, remove the lower access panel, and open the electrical box to completely disconnect the electrical from the dishwasher. Disconnect the water supply line and the drain line. Remove the anchor screws securing the dishwasher to the counter, then pull the dishwasher out of the cabinet. Have a large towel ready — rotate the dishwasher and lay it on its back to access the pump on the bottom. Photograph everything before disconnecting. Disconnect all connections to the main circulation pump: the drain pump, the electrical connections, the leak-detection plate and circuit, and the water lines. Undo all clamps to the circulation pump. Remove the old circulation pump assembly. Transfer your existing drain pump to the new W11414076 assembly — it is not included. (If you're only replacing a noisy motor and the pump case is good, the motor separates from the case with 3 Torx screws and can be swapped on its own.) Install the new assembly, reconnect the drain pump, electrical connections, leak-detection plate, water lines, and all clamps, matching your photos. Stand the dishwasher back up, slide it into the cabinet, reconnect water/drain/electrical, and secure the anchor screws. Run a short test cycle and check for leaks. Note: use your dishwasher's onboard diagnostic function to confirm the pump was the issue — light/error codes vary by model, so check the quick guide that came with your specific dishwasher rather than relying on codes listed online for other models. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, Torx driver (T-set), nut driver, pliers, large towel, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
The motor runs but water barely reaches the spray arms — do I definitely need a new pump?
Maybe not — try this first, because it could save you the entire repair. On many KitchenAid/Whirlpool-platform dishwashers, there's a fine filter screen INSIDE the circulation pump on the impeller. This screen can clog with microplastics and fine food particles over time (sometimes after a surprisingly small number of wash cycles), which chokes off water flow even though the motor is running perfectly. The screen can look clean but still be blocked — a real-world test is to hold water in the mesh cup: if it holds water like a cup instead of draining freely, it's clogged. Cleaning it with a toothbrush restores full flow. To access it you do have to pull the pump (the same disassembly as replacing it, then 2 Torx screws to open the pump), so if you're already this far in, disassemble and inspect the screen BEFORE installing a new pump — you may find the old pump is perfectly good. Running a dishwasher-safe cleaning product through the machine first is also worth a try.
My dishwasher motor is loud and getting louder — is that the pump?
Yes, that's a classic sign of worn circulation pump motor bearings. The motor bearings wear out over time, and as they degrade they produce a continuous drone that steadily gets louder. Once the bearings have failed, the noise won't go away on its own and the motor should be replaced. On this assembly, the motor separates from the pump case with 3 Torx screws — some customers who only have a bearing/noise problem (and an otherwise good pump case) simply swap the motor and reuse the case. If you order the full assembly, you get both, and you can decide during the repair whether to swap just the motor or the whole thing.
Does this come with the drain pump?
No — the W11414076 is the circulation pump and motor assembly, and it does not include the drain pump. During installation, you'll transfer your existing drain pump from the old assembly to the new one (it detaches and reattaches). This is normal for this repair. If your drain pump is also failing (separate symptoms: won't drain, water left standing after the cycle), that's a different part you'd order separately. The circulation pump handles washing/spray pressure; the drain pump handles emptying the tub.
What's the difference between W11414076 and W11122133?
These are the same circulation pump assembly across production revisions. W11122133 was the earlier OEM part number, and W11414076 is the current production version that Whirlpool issued as its direct replacement. Both are physically and functionally interchangeable — if your dishwasher's parts diagram shows W11122133, the W11414076 is the correct current replacement, and this listing covers both. The cross-references AP6980104, PS12745416, and 4958907 are additional catalog identifiers for the same part.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications. It is the exact same circulation pump and motor assembly installed in compatible Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, and Kenmore Whirlpool-built dishwashers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
