Is This the Right Part?
✅ Cross Reference Information
Common Symptoms
- Water is not reaching one or more spray arms.
- Some dishes remain dirty while others clean normally.
- Humming, clicking, or grinding may occur during wash operation.
- A diverter-related error may be displayed on applicable LG dishwasher models.
- Water leakage may be visible near the diverter motor or lower access area if the motor housing or seal is damaged.
Check Before Replacing
- With power disconnected, inspect the diverter motor, connector, and nearby wiring for visible damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
- Check the spray arms and water passages for removable debris or blockage before attributing the symptom to the motor.
- Observe whether wash water reaches the affected spray arm during operation, keeping hands clear and avoiding contact with energized or moving components.
- If qualified and following the appliance service documentation, check motor-circuit continuity with power disconnected; a continuity result alone does not prove the motor is defective.
- Inspect the motor area for evidence of leakage, cracks, or a diverter mechanism that is visibly stuck.
