Whirlpool dishwasher GU2700XTSS1 Trouble installing motor pump assembly.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Got the new pump/motor assembly set into the tub, but I'm stuck there.  I can press the assembly into the tub, with a lot of difficulty (only one of my arms works because of an accident) but once it's pressed in, it just pops back up.  It won't stay long enough for me to get to the underside and put the push in clips back.

 

  I cleaned the flange really well and put a little soap on the gasket and flange and it's still hard to push in.  I'm sure this is the right assembly:  whirlpool-pump-motor-wpw10780877 from appliance parts pro.  Does anyone have a suggestion?  All the vids show it going in and staying in.   Failing that, does anyone recommend a repair guy near my zip code: 23002?

I put my tool bag on top of the sump assy after I push the sump into place so that the weight of the tools holds the sump assy down long enough for me to reach under the dishwasher and insert the three sump tabs into their slots

Putting soap on it is where you messed up, lol. If you install them dry(much harder to push in) they usually don't pop back up long enough for you to get under it.
