Common Symptoms
- Little or no water movement at the spray arms, resulting in poor cleaning.
- Spray arms fail to rotate during the wash portion of the cycle.
- Unusual humming, grinding, or other motor/pump noise during washing.
- Water leakage from the sump or diverter-area seal associated with the assembly.
Check Before Replacing
- After the dishwasher fills, pause the cycle and cautiously observe whether the spray arms have changed position; lack of movement can indicate a circulation problem but does not by itself confirm this part is defective.
- With electrical power disconnected, inspect the pump-and-motor assembly wiring connectors for looseness, corrosion, or visible heat damage.
- Before condemning the assembly, confirm that the dishwasher has filled to its normal level and that the spray arms, filters, and sump area are not visibly blocked.
- If a leak is present, inspect the sump and diverter-area sealing surfaces for damage or displacement; do not operate the dishwasher with an active electrical or water leak.
Pro Tip
Because WPW10671941 contains the circulation and diverter motors but not the drain-pump motor, a dishwasher that drains normally yet has little or no spray-arm action points more specifically toward the circulation side of this assembly than toward the separate drain pump.

Installation Notes
- Disconnect electrical power and water supply before accessing or replacing the assembly.
- Use the appliance’s model-specific service information or parts diagram; mounting and access details can vary by dishwasher model.
- Disconnect and reconnect wiring only with power removed, and return each connector to its original location.
- Inspect mating seal and sump surfaces during installation; scratched or scored sealing surfaces may require additional parts rather than reuse of the assembly.
- After installation, restore water and power, run a short cycle, and check carefully for leaks and proper spray-arm circulation before completing reassembly.
