DW80F600UTS samsung dishwasher

[emfield]

The Motor died on our Samsung dishwasher 2 yrs old.  So I bought a brand new one along with the capacitor and seal ring.

while waiting for the part, I took apart all the parts and cleaned and checked for any damage or clogs:  Impeller wheel, grinder blade, screens, arms, o-rings, pump assembly.

rebuilt when part arrived: cudos to repair clinic for their great videos.  

Ran great: drain, fill (proper level), motor turns, I get water out of the lower arm but only 3" high, nothing out of the upper arm unless I plug the base and redirect the weak pressure to the lower arm assembly.

the RPM sound the same.  Cycled several times.  same issue.  Ideas ?

Seeing that you have completely and thoroughly cleaned all water flow parts and the fact that you have good pressure at bottom leads me to believe something is not put back together correctly. I would disassemble and retry. Sometimes its the simplest of things like the water connection itself, hose restriction or kink. Retrace your steps.
