KDFE304DSS0 Kitchenaid dishwasher leaking

[frjohn]

In July, 2015  I bought a Kitchenaid dishwasher (KDFE304DSS0). It has started leaking at the diverter valve/motor. I took the diverter motor off and it appears to be in good condition but I can't seem to get the sump grommet that goes around the valve stem at the top to come off or find it as a replacement part. Does Whirlpool really not offer that seal as a replacement part separate from the entire sump assembly? What are my options here? Thanks!

For the most part you won't find the diverter motor shaft seal listed in any parts break downs, (would have to purchase a new sump to get a new seal).

I ran across the part number for just the diverter seal when doing some research on these.

W10195677 Diverter motor shaft seal (May work on all models? - most show complete sump assembly only)

Part number: W10195677
