Removal & Installation
Removal & Installation
Drain pumps are mounted to sumps in the front of
dishwashers -- they’re easily accessible from the front of
dishwashers by removing toe kicks.
Removing & installing drain pump:
Remove toe kick, then pull up
terminal cover and disconnect
wires. For easier access, remove
base cover 1st.
To remove pump, push latch (on
circular collar) & rotate pump
clockwise (cw). To install new
pump, insert @ 2:00 position &
rotate counterclockwise (ccw).
Clean water & debris from base,
then check float operation.
Connect wires, then install base
cover & toe kick.
HINT: Improper installation issues causing
dishwashers to not drain properly -- its
usually not a drain pump problem:
Drain hoses without high loops or
drains without air gaps
Drain hoses > 10’ long (i.e. > 4’
extension)
Drain hoses kinked when
dishwashers installed under cabinets
DRAIN HOSE INSTALLATION TIPS:
Must have drain hoses with high
loops or drains with air gaps.
Drain hoses can be up to 10’ long
– can add up to 4’ to dishwasher
hose.
Secure drain hoses to rear of
dishwashers with non-metal
bands.
NOTE: Standard 6-vane drain pumps (#
167082) are quieter and smoother than 4-
vane pumps. Drain pumps used in
installations (in Washington State) with
Johnson Tees must use stronger 4-vane
pumps (# 184178). 4-vane pumps will be
slightly noisier, which is normal.
