The wash pump mounts to the face of the motor
and is supplied only as an assembly. The motor is
a variable speed, 120VAC, 1.5amp motor with a
running capacitor and turns clockwise. The speed
of the motor is determined by the cycle selected
and controlled by the electronic control. This
speed can vary from a high of 3300rpm to a low of
2200 rpm. The control monitors this speed by
input from a tachometer mounted on the motor.

The motor is checked for resistance at the
electronic control between the blue and white
leads, the reading shroud be 22.9 ohms. The
tachometer is checked at the control with the
ohms reading approximately 219.9 ohms between
the two green/yellow wires on the motor plug.
To remove the wash pump and motor:
1. Pull unit from its installation position. Lay unit
on its back.
2. Remove the base tray.
3. Using a flat bladed screwdriver, loosen the

frame. Pull mount plate away from unit base.
The flood switch can be removed from the
mount plate to make accessing the wash
pump and motor components easier.
(See Figure 5-38)
5. Disconnect ground wire from wash motor
terminal. (See Figure 5-39)
6. Disconnect electrical leads at quick disconnect
mounted to the motor shield.
7. Using a 3/16" socket, extract screw securing
the capacitor to the motor mounting plate.
8. Using a #15 Torx bit, extract the four screws
securing the wash motor and pump assembly
to the motor mount plate.
