    [FIXED] kenmore elise diswasher will not spray or wash dishs

    Model Number: 665.13133k701
    Brand: Sears Kenmore
    Age: 6-10 years

    Our Kenmore dishwasher elite does turn on fills drains but does not spray or wash dish's we have checked the heating element its reading 13ohms. the flashing clean light came on and it did 7 blinks and we tried resetting it also. we have also put in a new thermistor and it got the heating element a little hotter but not hot enough. we are getting ready to go get a new heating element and thermostat does anyone have any ideas that what it could be thanks!

    Ok so we took apart the circulation pump and it was udderly clogged and we used clr too free it up and now it seems like its not as clogged were going to get some \new clamps too see if that fix's our problem!

    Ok so now we did some more looking into the problem and there was another part that has gone bad.We saw the deverter motor was not turning.it wouldn't turn and the plug that was connecting it was difficult to unplug we got it out and it wouldn't turn by hand.did some more looking into it and on the circuit board there was a small button that burnt up and im guessing thats why it wouldn't turn on

    Thanks for the update on the problem. If the old diverter motor was burned up, make sure to check the seal on the sump to make sure it isn't leaking or else you will burn out the new diverter motor. If it is leaking you will need to replace the sump assembly as the seal is not available as a separate part.

    This is the sump assembly for your model dishwasher:

    Thanks for that i will look at that and also we did get the part today and the dishwasher did work! will see if it has that ring around it. also i think the reason it burned up was because one of the motors was filled with crap so we got the clr and cleaned it out.
