W11665769 Dishwasher Sump Pump and Motor
Pump and Motor Assembly
Replaces Part Numbers: W11665769, W11085683, W10917110, W11164469, AP7212556, PS16875975.
Description: This dishwasher pump and motor assembly is compatible with specific Whirlpool, Maytag, Kenmore dishwasher models. It is supplied directly by the original manufacturer to ensure that it fits perfectly with your model. The pump and motor are responsible for moving water throughout the dishwasher during the wash cycle. The pump draws water from the tub and pumps it through various channels, such as the detergent dispenser, spray arms, and drain hose. The motor provides the power necessary to drive the circulation pump, causing the pump to rotate and circulate water. If the assembly is faulty, you will notice difficulties starting or filling the dishwasher, poor cleaning performance, incomplete cycles, and water leaks.
WD26X25103 Genuine OEM GE Dishwasher Variable Wash Pump Kit
The WD26X25103 is a genuine GE OEM variable wash pump kit for premium GE, Café, GE Profile, Monogram, Hotpoint, and Haier dishwashers. The wash pump is the heart of the cleaning system — it draws filtered water from the sump and drives it under pressure through the lower spray arm, the middle spray arm, and the upper wash manifold. What makes this a variable pump is its variable-speed motor: instead of running at one fixed speed, the control board modulates pump speed throughout the cycle, ramping pressure up for heavy soil and down for delicate loads, and shifting flow between spray zones. That is why a failing variable pump often produces uneven results — the bottom rack comes out clean while the top rack is barely wet.
This is a complete kit, supplied with the circulation pump assembly and its integrated wiring harness, so you are not transferring connectors from the old unit. Typical failure modes include worn motor bearings that produce a loud humming or grinding during the wash portion of the cycle, a seized or debris-jammed impeller, a shaft seal that begins weeping water into the base pan and trips the flood switch, and electrical failure of the variable-speed motor windings. It directly replaces WD26X22789, AP6973120, PS12730515, and EAP12730515. This is a moderate DIY repair — most people budget 1–2 hours.

Note: GE uses several different circulation pumps across its dishwasher lineup, and they are NOT interchangeable. The WD26X25103 is the variable-speed pump used on premium CDT/PDT/ZDT platforms. It is not the same part as the WD26X23258 circulation pump (GDT695/PDT825 platforms) or the WD26X22518 pump (PDF820/GDT535/ADT521 platforms). Fitting the wrong pump can result in a physical mismatch at the sump or a harness that will not mate with your control board. Always verify your full model number — including the suffix — before ordering. Contact our support team with your model number if you're unsure.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Disconnect Power And Shut Off Water Before Starting Turn off the dishwasher's circuit breaker and close the hot water supply valve under the sink before beginning. Wear work gloves — the tub edges and undercarriage brackets are sharp. Before condemning the pump, run a quick check: remove the lower spray arm and filter assembly, clear any glass chips, seeds, or labels from the sump, and confirm the spray arm ports are not blocked. A clogged filter screen produces the same "dishes not clean" complaint as a failing pump and costs nothing to rule out. To replace the pump, first remove the two screws securing the dishwasher to the underside of the countertop (or to the adjacent cabinets), disconnect the water line and drain hose, and slide the unit out. Most technicians then lay the dishwasher on its front or on its back to reach the pump — put a towel down to protect the door and finish. Photograph the hose routing and wiring before disconnecting anything. Release the two hose clamps and separate the two electrical connections, then unlock the pump from the sump housing — it typically twists to release from a bayonet-style mount — and lift it out. Inspect the sump gasket and seat while the pump is off; replace the gasket if it is hardened, flattened, or nicked. Install the new WD26X25103 in the same orientation, twist to lock, reattach both hoses with their clamps, and reconnect the harness. Reinstall the dishwasher, restore water and power, then run a full cycle and check underneath for leaks before pushing the unit all the way back and reattaching the mounting screws. Tools needed: Phillips screwdriver, nut driver, pliers or hose clamp pliers, towel, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My top rack isn't getting clean but the bottom rack is fine. Is that the wash pump?
It's the signature symptom of a weakening wash pump, yes — but check two cheaper things first. The upper wash manifold and the middle spray arm are fed last and at the lowest pressure, so they are the first zones to suffer when pump output drops. However, a clogged filter screen or a spray arm with blocked ports will starve the upper rack the same way. Pull the lower spray arm and filter, rinse them under hot water, poke a toothpick through any blocked spray ports, and run a cycle. If the top rack is still dry or dirty after that, the variable pump is losing pressure and should be replaced.
What does "variable" mean on this pump, and does it matter?
It matters a great deal. A variable-speed pump lets the control board change pump speed during the cycle — higher pressure for heavy soil, lower for delicate loads, and different speeds when directing flow to different spray zones. A fixed-speed pump cannot do that. This is why you cannot substitute a standard circulation pump from another GE platform even if it physically resembles this one: the control board expects a variable-speed motor and will not drive a fixed-speed unit correctly.
The dishwasher is making a loud grinding noise. Do I need the whole pump?
Not always — check for foreign objects first. Glass chips, fruit pits, bones, and hard plastic bits routinely get past the filter and rattle inside the pump housing or wedge against the impeller. Remove the filter assembly and inspect the sump thoroughly with a flashlight. If the sump is clean and the noise is a steady hum or grind that rises with the wash cycle, the pump's motor bearings are worn and the complete kit is the correct repair. Bearing noise does not improve on its own and usually precedes a shaft seal leak.
I found water in the pan underneath the dishwasher. Could the pump cause that?
Yes. When the pump's shaft seal wears out, it weeps water down onto the base pan during every wash cycle. GE dishwashers have a flood switch in that pan, so the machine will eventually detect the water and shut itself down mid-cycle or refuse to start. Before ordering, confirm the water is coming from the pump and not from a loose hose clamp, a cracked sump, or the door gasket — dry the pan completely, run a short cycle, and watch where the first drops appear.
Does this kit include everything, or do I need to reuse parts from the old pump?
The kit ships with the wash pump assembly and its integrated wiring harness, so you will not need to cut, splice, or transfer the electrical connector from your old pump. You will reuse your existing hoses and clamps. Inspect the sump gasket while the pump is out and replace it if it looks hardened, flattened, or nicked — a tired gasket is a common cause of a "new pump that still leaks."
What's the difference between WD26X25103 and WD26X22789?
They are the same pump across production revisions. WD26X22789 was the earlier number and WD26X25103 is the current GE part number that supersedes it. If your dishwasher's parts diagram shows WD26X22789, this listing is the correct replacement — order it with confidence. The additional cross-references (AP6973120, PS12730515, EAP12730515) are catalog identifiers used by various parts distributors for the same kit.
Is this an OEM or aftermarket part?
This is a genuine OEM part, manufactured by GE to factory specifications — guaranteed fit, materials, and performance. It matches the original variable-speed motor profile, impeller geometry, flow rate, sump mounting interface, and harness connector of the pump originally installed in your dishwasher, which is important on this platform because the control board is calibrated to drive a variable-speed pump.

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.
Quick Answer

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.

WPW10605057 Genuine OEM Whirlpool Dishwasher Pump & Motor Assembly
The WPW10605057 is a genuine Whirlpool OEM circulation pump and diverter motor assembly for Whirlpool, Kenmore, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Maytag, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper, and Ikea dishwashers. This assembly pumps water up through the spray arms throughout the wash cycle, and the integrated diverter motor controls which spray arm receives that water at any given moment. This assembly includes the circulation pump and diverter motor only — it does not include the drain pump, which is a separate component on this platform.
Over time, the pump motor's internal windings can wear out or fail electrically, or the diverter mechanism can stick or bind. A failing assembly typically shows up as a dishwasher that isn't washing dishes properly because water isn't circulating through the spray arms, or leaking from underneath the unit. Whirlpool's own guidance recommends checking the motor's resistance with a multimeter if water isn't circulating, to confirm the assembly before replacing it. It directly replaces AP6023350, WPW10482502, W10482502, W10605057, 3021439, 3023239, PS11756692, W10236194, W10534160N, W10300740, and W10500285.

Installation Notes
⚠️ Unplug Dishwasher And Shut Off Water Supply Before Starting Disconnect power at the outlet or shut off the circuit breaker, and shut off the water supply before beginning. Wear work gloves. Remove the lower dish rack, the impeller/spray arm, and the drain filter to access the interior floor of the tub. Working from underneath the dishwasher, release the drain hose from the pump using pliers, then hand-unscrew the drain pump and temperature sensor about a quarter-turn each, being careful to release the small clip holding the drain pump in place — leave both of these components in place, since they're not part of this replacement. Release the three levers that clamp the pump and motor assembly to the bottom of the dishwasher, positioned roughly at 0, 120, and 240 degrees around the assembly. Photograph the electrical connections before disconnecting anything, since keeping track of exactly how everything was wired makes reassembly straightforward. Pop the old assembly up and out through the bottom of the dishwasher. If your old assembly used a separate counterweight, transfer it to the new assembly. Install the new WPW10605057 assembly through the same opening, reconnect all electrical connections exactly as photographed, and re-engage the three clamping levers. Reconnect the drain pump, temperature sensor, and drain hose you set aside earlier. Reinstall the drain filter, spray arm/impeller, and lower rack. Restore water and power, then run a test cycle to confirm normal water circulation with no leaks underneath. Tools needed: multi-screwdriver, pliers, work gloves.
Frequently Asked Questions
My dishwasher isn't cleaning dishes well. How do I know if this is the right part?
Whirlpool's own guidance recommends checking the pump motor's resistance with a multimeter first if water isn't circulating properly. If the motor tests outside its expected resistance range, or shows no continuity at all, that confirms this assembly has failed and needs replacing rather than a different component being at fault.
Should I replace the drain pump at the same time?
Not necessarily — this assembly doesn't include the drain pump, and if your dishwasher is washing normally but just not draining, the drain pump (a separate part) is the more likely cause rather than this circulation assembly. If both symptoms are present, it's worth checking both components, but they aren't sold together in this listing.
Do I need to replace the counterweight or reuse the old one?
If your dishwasher's original assembly used a separate counterweight component, transfer it from the old assembly to the new one during installation rather than assuming a new one is included. Check your specific model's parts diagram if you're not sure whether this applies to your dishwasher.
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 pump design, diverter motor function, and mounting configuration of the circulation pump and motor assembly originally installed in your dishwasher.

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.

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.

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.
