WPW10605057 - Whirlpool Dishwasher Circulation Pump

This Whirlpool Dishwasher Circulation Pump (WPW10605057) is a genuine part designed exclusively for specific dishwasher models in the Whirlpool 7WD, WDF, and WDT series, as well as for select Ikea IUD, Jenn-Air JDB, and KitchenAid KDFE and KDTE models. Known for enhancing the dishwashing process, this pump plays a crucial role by pumping water through the spray arms during the cycle. Also known as the Dishwasher Pump and Motor Assembly, the unit includes a diverter motor that precisely controls the flow of water to the spray arms, ensuring your dishes emerge spotlessly clean.

If you notice that the water isn't circulating through the spray arms or if the pump's wiring connections are secure, yet the issue persists, it might be time to check the pump motor with a multimeter. A replacement is advisable should your meter display infinite resistance, indicating a non-functioning motor, whereas a healthy pump motor should show a resistance measurement between 5 and 15 ohms. This part directly replaces W10605057, offering a seamless and compatible fit for your appliance's specific needs. Prior to purchasing, do remember to confirm this part is compatible with your dishwasher model to ensure an accurate and efficient repair.
