Q1. I found a round rubber washer from the circulation pump. Any idea abt this round rubber washer(number on it is 51263 03)!! is this needed inside Circulation pump..?? If not from where this might have came..?? see pictures ..(I understands the round rubber with number 51263 03 is whirlpool gasket)

Q2. I have a white open pipe..!! not sure where this need to be connected..?? Or need to be open..? see pictures ..Q3. I have removed couple of circular hose clamps, not sure what tool I can use to put it back easily..? see pictures ..
Q4. Circulation pump should it be rotated freely..? I can rotate it with finger touch with some initial resistance. see pictures ..
Any urgent help is much appreciated, as kitchen is in a real mess now..:(. Thanks very muchRe: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
you could have gone too far too quick
to answer some of your questions
Q2 it an overflow pipe its meant to be open to let water leak into base
Q3 pincers is the tool you need but you have to bend the zig zag peice on the clip to open it a bit to put it back and crimp to seal
i said you went too far. when the unit started was there power to the main pump. if yes its the pump if no its broken wires or prog problem possibly. i say possibly cause there is always the odd fault that does not give the right fault code

Thanks very much Dave.
I had same error code 5 Flash (means faulty circulation motor or block) 2 weeks back, I managed to get it working after running test program ie keeping it in rinse and power on with start button pressed, another press at start button.
Main question I have is this rubber with number 51263 03 (whirlpool gasket ??) is this needs to be inside circulation pump (near rotating blades). If not where this should be ..??
Appreciate your thought on this. Thanks
Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
dont think its part of the pump as it would impede water flow but not seen this part on the units i have serviced
when did this part appear and whereDave
Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
As you can see from Pics 3 & 4, this rubber gasket was inside circulation pump. Inside the pump next to white rotating thing!! Not sure its there to stop water getting into something..??
Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
Wowww…..
First washing cycle after removing that rubber round (gasket??) from the circulation pump is in progress now. So far fantastic results…all going well. Thanks to this forum especially ‘electrofix’ for the quick response.
Still not clear from where this round rubber (gasket??) came..? What’s its use..? Where to put that…? Definitely its a part of this Dishwasher. It was stuck inside circulation pump and pump was not rotating. second photo shows both sides of same item.
Also looks like I might have to buy a set of ‘hose clamps’, since I didn’t had a pincer, I placed them back not the best way. So I will get some clamps with screws to avoid future water leaks.
Thanks again.
Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
some of the dishwashers had holes in the roof that they used bungs to close when not required
just open door and look at the top to make sure you have not got any open holesdave
Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
Yes it was from rinse aid dispenser…Thanks Simon.
But I think my celebration was premature..!! After one “Eco-wash” it stopped and gone back to 5 Flash error now. (BTW it did a fantastic wash)
Once Eco-Wash (around 40 minutes wash, I started putting back covers (bottom and small front cover), also inserted wood door back, pushed dishwasher to its original place under kitchen cabinet and placed skirting board as well.
Now I tried again and very disappointed to see 5 flash errors again…!!
Not sure what to do now…? Not sure how it worked once, I am certain it did a fantastic wash at that time. Now its making all right noises but no water coming from both arms..!! Water is coming in and pumped out as well. I also noticed few drops of water on the bottom tray as well.
Any Tips..? Thanks very much.Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
I saw few drops of water in the tray. But I made a mistake by not putting all screws on the part where the bottom spray arm is fitted. I found that screw and placed now. I am also going to check the washer in side now.
Bit surprised why it worked once..???
Re: Whirlpool 7560/1 integrated dishwasher – Issues..Please
Hi Guys,
Story so far is…
I had 5 Flash (means faulty circulation motor or block) errors from my Dishwasher 3 weeks back. It worked once (full program) after running test program by pressing start button and switching on Dishwasher. Then gone back to 5 Flash error.
I opened Dishwasher and found a rubber gasket inside circulation pump. Also completely drained water from base well (under water filter). I removed that and switched on, both test program and another full wash program worked well. It did best cleaning since I cleaned up all spray arms. But unfortunately then stopped working again. I can hear water spraying like sound but water is not being sprayed at all or spray arms not even rotated but water getting filled and flushed out.
Today I removed all possible parts on the Dishwasher Including side panels. Also completely drained water from Dishwasher. Checked circulation pump again also checked connecting pipes. Today again test/rinse program completed. Also when I run Eco programs it completed. But again it stopped after program. Now again showing 5 Flash error!!! .
Now before starting search for a new Dishwasher, what more I can do..?? Since full program is working occasionally, I am very confused.!!! Thanks.
