XPARTCO DD31-00016A Dishwasher Drain Pump Motor
The XPARTCO DD31-00016A is an aftermarket replacement BLDC (brushless DC) drain pump motor for Samsung dishwashers. This motor removes water from the dishwasher tub during the drain phase of the cycle — an impeller mechanism pumps water out through the drain hose, running during the draining phase to ensure a constant, steady flow and help prevent clogs.
Weighs approximately 0.50 lbs, with package dimensions of 4.02" x 3.50" x 3.54". Compatible with 120V and 230V systems. Common causes of failure include worn motor bearings, electrical failure, or debris obstructing the impeller. Symptoms of a failing drain pump motor include water not draining from the tub, standing water left after a cycle, unusual noise during the drain phase, or intermittent draining problems that don't happen every cycle. It directly replaces AP5917178, 113121, 4000925, EAP9606350, PS9606350, ASM773863, PD00036475, and 045900194701.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — This Step Needs Two Hands Turn off and unplug the dishwasher for safety, and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove any panels or components blocking access to the motor pump. Disconnect all wiring from the old motor. Removing the old motor requires holding a release tab open while simultaneously twisting the motor counterclockwise — this two-handed step trips up a lot of first-time installers, so take it slowly and make sure the tab stays held open through the full twist. Once free, remove the old motor. Install the new DD31-00016A securely in the same mounting position. Reconnect all wiring according to the original connections. Reinstall any panels or components removed for access. Restore the water supply and power, then run a test cycle to confirm the dishwasher drains completely with no leaks or unusual noise. Tools needed: screwdriver, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dishwasher isn't draining. Is this the part I need?
Yes, this is the most direct symptom of a failed drain pump motor. Since this motor is what removes water from the tub during the drain phase, a worn or failed motor can leave standing water behind or prevent the cycle from completing properly.
My dishwasher's drainage problem only happens sometimes. Could this still be the motor?
Yes, this is possible. One customer replaced this exact motor to address an intermittent draining issue, noting it was somewhat of a guess since the problem didn't occur every cycle. Intermittent symptoms can still point to a motor that's beginning to fail rather than one that's failed completely, though it's worth noting the customer wasn't fully certain the replacement resolved their specific issue.
What's the trickiest part of installing this motor?
Removing the old motor requires holding a release tab open while twisting the motor counterclockwise at the same time — a two-handed maneuver that one customer specifically called out as the biggest challenge of the whole repair. Taking it slowly and keeping steady pressure on the tab through the full twist makes this easier.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the motor design, impeller mechanism, and voltage compatibility of the original DD31-00016A drain pump motor used in compatible Samsung dishwashers.

XPARTCO DD31-00005A Dishwasher Drain Pump Motor
The XPARTCO DD31-00005A is an aftermarket replacement drain pump motor for Samsung dishwashers. This pump uses an internal impeller to force wastewater out of the tub and through the drain hose during the drain phase of the wash cycle — it's the component doing the physical work every time your dishwasher empties itself between cycle stages and at the end of the wash.
Rated 120V, 0.8A. Over time, the impeller can wear down, debris can jam the motor, or the motor windings themselves can fail electrically. A failing drain pump produces a very recognizable pattern: standing water left in the tub after a cycle finishes, water leaking from underneath the dishwasher, unusually loud or grinding noise during the drain phase, or a pump that audibly tries to run for a moment and then shuts off right away without actually clearing the water. It directly replaces AP4342621 and PS4222308.
Quick Answer
The XPARTCO DD31-00005A Dishwasher Drain Pump Motor fixes Samsung dishwashers that won't drain, leave standing water in the tub, leak underneath the unit, or run unusually noisy during the drain phase. 120V, 0.8A. Replaces AP4342621, PS4222308. This is the drain pump — not the same part as the wash/circulation pump (DD31-00004B), which handles spraying water during the wash itself rather than draining it afterward.
Common Problems This Part Fixes
Dishwasher not draining — standing water left in the tub after a cycle
Water leaking from underneath the dishwasher
Unusually loud, grinding, or strange noise during the drain phase
Pump that tries to run briefly, then shuts off right away without draining
Dishwasher running noisily overall
Cycle that stalls or won't advance past the drain step

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting — Remove Standing Water First Unplug the dishwasher and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. If there's standing water left in the tub from the original failure, remove as much as possible by hand with a cup or towel before starting the repair. Access to the drain pump is typically from underneath the unit, which can mean a tight working space — pulling the dishwasher partially out from under the counter, or working from the front after removing the lower access panel, makes this considerably easier depending on your installation. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and the drain hose connections from the old pump, remove its mounting screws or clips, and pull it free. Install the new DD31-00005A pump in the same position, reconnect the drain hose connections securely, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Restore the water supply and power, then run a cycle and check underneath for leaks while confirming the tub drains completely at the end. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, pliers, towels or a small cup for removing standing water, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dishwasher pump tries to run for a second, then shuts off. Is that the drain pump?
Yes, this is a documented symptom of a failing drain pump motor — one customer described exactly this pattern, where the pump attempted to run and then shut off right away without actually clearing the standing water. This typically points to a motor that's jammed, worn, or electrically failing rather than a clog, since a simple clog usually lets the motor keep running (just ineffectively) rather than shutting off immediately.
Access to my drain pump is really tight. Is that normal?
Yes, this is a common challenge with under-counter dishwasher installations — the drain pump often sits low and toward the back, and reaching it can mean working in a cramped space regardless of the model. Removing standing water first and having patience with the process makes a real difference, and pulling the unit partially forward, if your installation allows it, can improve access significantly.
Is this the same as the wash pump on my dishwasher?
No. This DD31-00005A is specifically the drain pump, which removes wastewater from the tub. Your dishwasher's separate wash/circulation pump (DD31-00004B) is what sprays water through the spray arms during the actual wash portion of the cycle. If your dishwasher isn't cleaning dishes well but drains fine, the wash pump — not this drain pump — is more likely the issue.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is an aftermarket replacement part built to OEM-equivalent quality standards. It is not a genuine Samsung OEM part, but is manufactured to match the electrical rating, impeller design, and mounting configuration of the original DD31-00005A drain pump motor used in compatible Samsung dishwashers.

A00126401 Genuine OEM Frigidaire Dishwasher Drain Pump Motor
The A00126401 is a genuine Frigidaire OEM drain pump motor assembly for Frigidaire, Electrolux, Crosley, Gibson, Kelvinator, Westinghouse, Tappan, and Kenmore dishwashers. At the end of each wash cycle, this pump is what actually pushes the used wash water out of the tub and through the drain hose, clearing the way for the next fill. An internal impeller spins to create that flow, drawing water in and forcing it out through the drain line.
Rated 120V, 60Hz, 35W, 0.8A, 3600RPM, with 1/4" male terminals, this assembly includes the pump motor, impeller, and seal. Common causes of failure include clogs from food particles or debris interfering with the impeller, worn or damaged impeller blades, and electrical failure of the motor itself. A failing drain pump typically shows up as water not draining from the dishwasher, water pooling at the bottom of the tub after a cycle, a grinding or humming noise from the pump area, or the dishwasher refusing to start a new cycle because it detects standing water left over from the last one. It directly replaces AP5690431, 154736201, 3015405, 5304492415, PS8689824, DW26401, PD00000922, and EAP2363535.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher Before Starting — Rule Out A Simple Clog First Before replacing the pump, check the drain hose and the sump screen at the bottom of the tub for a clog — food debris and buildup in the hose can produce identical "won't drain" symptoms to a failed pump, and clearing a clog costs nothing but a few minutes. One customer replaced the pump entirely, still had no drainage, and only afterward discovered the actual cause was a clogged drain hose; disconnecting and running a cycle without the hose attached can help confirm whether the pump itself is pushing water. Once you've confirmed the pump needs replacing, disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and pull the dishwasher out from under the counter for access to the underside — removing the two screws securing it to the counter first. Have a drain pan or towels ready for residual water. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the two wire connectors from the old pump, remove the three screws securing it in place, and disconnect the hose connections, then pull the old pump free. Install the new A00126401 in the same position, reconnect the hose connections, and reconnect the two wire connectors. Secure the pump with its three mounting screws. Slide the dishwasher back into place and secure it to the counter, restore power, and run a full test cycle to confirm normal draining with no leaks or unusual noise. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, flat-blade screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, drain pan, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dishwasher won't drain. How do I know if it's actually the pump and not something simpler?
Check the drain hose and the sump screen at the bottom of the tub for a clog first — this is a genuinely common cause of "won't drain" symptoms and costs nothing to rule out. If the hose and screen are clear and the pump still won't run, test the pump motor with a multimeter for continuity. If there's no continuity, or the pump is getting power but still won't run, replacement is the correct fix.
I already replaced the pump and it's still not draining. What should I check next?
This has happened to real customers, and the cause was ultimately a clogged drain hose rather than the pump itself. If replacing the pump didn't solve the drainage problem, disconnect the drain hose and run a test cycle to see whether water is being pushed out at all — if it is, the hose downstream is the likely culprit and worth snaking out or replacing.
Does this kit include the check valve flapper?
This varies by supplier batch — this assembly reliably includes the pump motor, impeller, and seal, but flapper inclusion isn't consistent across all sources. Inspect your old pump's flapper for wear or damage before installation, and contact our support team if you need to confirm whether a flapper is included with your specific order.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Frigidaire to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original motor speed, impeller design, and terminal configuration of the drain pump originally installed in your dishwasher.

WPW10348269 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Drain Pump Motor
The WPW10348269 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM drain pump motor for Whirlpool, KitchenAid, Kenmore, Maytag, Amana, Crosley, Estate, Inglis, Jenn-Air, Magic Chef, and Roper dishwashers. This pump uses an electric motor to create suction, pulling wastewater out of the tub and expelling it through the drain hose at the end of each cycle. This is the dedicated drain pump, distinct from a circulation pump — such as our WPW10605057 listing — which handles spraying water through the spray arms during the wash itself rather than draining it afterward.
Rated 120VAC, 60Hz, 45W, 0.7A, with a run time pattern of 5 minutes on, 30 minutes off. Ships as a complete pump motor with impeller and O-ring. If the impeller becomes damaged or the motor shorts out and stops draining, the pump body itself can crack over time, leading to leakage — replacing the pump before that happens is the more reliable fix. Symptoms of a failing drain pump include water not draining from the tub, unusual noise such as grinding during the drain phase, or visible leaks from underneath the unit. It directly replaces W10348269, W10084573, 661662, 8558995, 8565839, W10158351, WPW10348269VP, AP6020066, AWP49992, PD00004898, PS11753379

It is a separate part from our WPW10605057 listing, which is the circulation pump and diverter motor responsible for spraying water through the spray arms during the wash itself. Always verify your full model number before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure which pump your dishwasher needs.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher Before Starting — Removing The Unit Makes Access Easier Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker before beginning. Wear work gloves. This repair can be done without pulling the dishwasher out from under the counter, but many technicians find it considerably easier to access the pump if you do pull the unit out first. Remove the lower rack and any components blocking access to the tub floor, then work from underneath the dishwasher to reach the drain pump. Test the old pump for continuity with a multimeter before removing it — if it shows no continuity, or if it's getting power but still won't run, that confirms the pump has failed. Photograph the wiring and hose connections before disconnecting anything. Disconnect the electrical connector and the drain hose connection from the old pump, remove its mounting hardware, and pull it free. Install the new WPW10348269 in the same position, reconnect the drain hose connection securely, and reconnect the electrical connector fully. Reinstall any components removed for access and the lower rack. Restore power, run a test cycle, and check underneath for leaks while confirming the tub drains completely at the end. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, 5/16" nut driver, 5/8" wrench, flathead screwdriver, multimeter, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to pull the dishwasher out from under the counter for this repair?
Not strictly — this pump can be replaced without fully removing the dishwasher. That said, several customers who've done this repair note that pulling the unit out first makes access considerably easier, since you're working from underneath the appliance either way. If you have the space to pull it out, it's worth doing to make the job smoother.
How do I know if the pump has actually failed?
Test the pump motor with a multimeter set to continuity before replacing it. If there's no continuity, or if the pump is receiving power but still won't run, that confirms the motor has failed and the pump should be replaced. This quick check avoids replacing a part that isn't actually the problem.
My old pump was leaking. Why does that happen?
If the impeller becomes damaged or the motor shorts out and stops running, the pump body itself can develop a crack over time, which leads to leakage. Rather than trying to repair a leaking pump, replacing the complete assembly resolves both the drainage failure and the leak at the same time.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by Whirlpool to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original motor, impeller, and hose connection configuration of the drain pump originally installed in your dishwasher.

WD21X25468 Genuine OEM GE Dishwasher Pressure Sensor Assembly
The WD21X25468 is a Genuine OEM GE replacement dishwasher pressure sensor assembly compatible with a wide range of GE, GE Profile, GE Café, Hotpoint, Haier, and Monogram dishwashers in the GDF, GDT, GDP, PDT, CDT, ZDT, QDP, and HDF series. The pressure sensor monitors water pressure inside the dishwasher tub during fill and drain cycles and sends real-time readings to the electronic control board. The control board uses these readings to calculate the correct amount of water needed for each wash cycle and to confirm that the tub has drained properly before advancing to the next cycle phase.
When the pressure sensor fails — or when it becomes clogged with grease, food residue, or mineral buildup — the dishwasher may not fill with water, may overfill, may stop mid-cycle, may fail to drain correctly, or may display error codes H2O or FTD (Failure to Drain). This Genuine OEM part is manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It directly replaces AP6976524, PS12741258, EAP12741258, 4962334, 37640602, and 265D3356P001. Sold individually. Installs in 15–20 minutes — a screwdriver is the only tool required for most models.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher and Shut Off Water Before Starting Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before beginning. On most compatible GE models, the pressure sensor is located near the bottom of the dishwasher tub, accessible after removing the lower front kick panel (secured by one or two screws). The sensor assembly connects to a small hose and a wiring harness connector. Tip: before replacing the sensor, remove it and inspect the pressure port and hose for grease, food residue, or mineral buildup — a clogged sensor port can cause H2O and FTD errors without the sensor itself being electrically failed. Clean the port and hose with warm water and a small brush, reinstall, and test the dishwasher. If the error codes persist after cleaning, replace the WD21X25468 sensor. To replace: disconnect the hose and wiring harness from the old sensor, unclip or unscrew the sensor from its mounting bracket, and install the new sensor in the same position. Reconnect the hose and harness, restore power and water, and run a test cycle. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the dishwasher pressure sensor do?
The pressure sensor monitors the water pressure — and therefore the water level — inside the dishwasher tub throughout the wash cycle. It sends continuous readings to the electronic control board, which uses the data to determine how much water to add during fill, when to stop filling, and whether the tub has drained completely before advancing to the next cycle phase. An accurate pressure sensor is essential for the dishwasher to fill to the correct level (not too much, not too little), wash with the correct spray arm pressure, and drain fully before moving on to rinse or dry cycles.
What do error codes H2O and FTD mean on GE dishwashers?
H2O error code on compatible GE dishwashers indicates that the dishwasher is not detecting enough water in the tub — either water is not filling at all, or the pressure sensor is not sensing the water that has filled. FTD (Failure to Drain) code indicates the dishwasher has not confirmed that the tub has drained within the expected time. Both codes can be caused by a faulty pressure sensor, a clogged sensor port, a failed fill valve, a blocked drain system, or control board issues. The pressure sensor should be inspected and tested first since it is the most accessible and commonly replaced component for these two error codes.
Should I try cleaning the sensor before replacing it?
Yes — absolutely. The pressure sensor on GE dishwashers can produce H2O and FTD error codes when its pressure port or connected hose becomes clogged with grease, food residue, or hard water mineral deposits — even if the sensor itself is electrically intact. Before ordering a replacement, remove the sensor, inspect the pressure port opening, and clean it thoroughly with warm water and a small brush. Flush the connected hose to clear any buildup. Reinstall and run a test cycle. If the error codes return, the sensor has electrically failed and needs replacement with the WD21X25468.
My dishwasher won't fill unless I pour water in manually first — is this the pressure sensor?
Yes — this is a classic symptom of a clogged or failed pressure sensor. When the sensor port is blocked, the sensor reads zero pressure (empty tub) even when the dishwasher starts. In some cases the control board interprets this as a drainage confirmation and will not initiate the fill cycle. Pouring water into the filter manually raises the physical water level enough to trigger filling. Check and clean the sensor port as described above. If cleaning does not resolve the issue, replace the WD21X25468 sensor.
Is this a Genuine OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a Genuine OEM part manufactured by GE to factory specifications. It is the exact same pressure sensor assembly installed in compatible GE, GE Profile, GE Café, Hotpoint, and related brand dishwashers from the factory — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance.
