The lower vent fan operates on 12VDC from the
electronic control with a speed of 3500 rpm. The
operation is monitored by the control by the
amperage draw of the fan motor. If this blower
fails, the control will show a failure code and stop
the dishwasher.
The drain pump can be checked for resistance at
the electronic control. The normal resistance for
the drain motor is 21.5 ohms.
To remove the drain pump:
1. Pull unit from its installation position. Lay unit
on its back.
2. Remove the base tray.
3. Reach behind lower vent fan and push fan
motor out of slot in the lower duct assembly.
The lower duct assembly has retaining latches
molded into the slot that locate in the four
holes of the fan motor. Using a small flat
bladed screwdriver to pry out the front two
retaining latches will aid in removal.
(See Figure 5-43)
4. Disconnect electrical leads at control assembly
then carefully pull fan motor with electrical
leads out of unit.
