LG Dishwasher door vent blower motor and casing assembly ABT73009401

Is This the Right Part?

Common Symptoms

• Poor or incomplete drying
• Excess moisture inside the dishwasher after a cycle
• Clicking, rattling, or unusual blower noise during drying
• Water or moisture leaking from the door-vent area
• Little or no airflow from the door vent during the drying phase

Check Before Replacing

• With power disconnected, inspect the door-vent opening and blower area for visible debris, damage, or obstruction.
• During a normal drying cycle, observe whether the blower operates and listen for abnormal clicking or rattling; do not place hands near moving parts.
• With power disconnected, verify that the visible wiring connector is seated and that the fan does not appear jammed or physically damaged.
• Confirm that the symptom is specific to the drying/ventilation phase before identifying this assembly as a possible cause; other dishwasher components can also affect drying.

Installation Notes

• Disconnect electrical power by unplugging the dishwasher or switching off the house circuit breaker before installation.
• Access requires removal of the dishwasher door’s interior/access panel according to the appliance’s service procedure.
• Disconnect and reconnect the wiring connector carefully, and confirm the replacement assembly is seated and secured before reassembling the panels.
• After reassembly, restore power and check the drying operation, vent airflow, unusual noise, and door-vent area for leaks.
• Verify the appliance model before installation; the assembly is not universally compatible with all LG or Kenmore dishwashers.
