Re: Diplomat ADP8322 not cleaning dishes

Hi Dave

I removed the pump last night and I noticed it is the dreaded Askoll type, COD 461972474391. The mounting is different to the ones you buy online. The Askoll has a large support peg that penetrates the rear of the machine. The motor/pumps I see online have a mounting bracket. I note that there are holes at the rear of the machine which I suspect are for this mounting bracket. Is this correct?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: Diplomat ADP8322 not cleaning dishes

Thanks for the advice Dave, I think I may have a go at fixing it!

I was looking at this motor:

You think it will be okay, seems a reasonable price? I’ll quote my serial number to be on the safe side.

What do you recommend for the clips, jubilee type? What sizes are they?

Thanks

Re: Diplomat ADP8322 not cleaning dishes

Hi

I tried a couple of rinse cycles and I got the same result: pump comes on for a 2 or 3 minutes and I then hear the motor running. I’m pretty sure it’s not running as before. Perhaps it’s because the spray arms aren’t moving. I think the bottom one is spewing out a little bit of water as water is lying at the bottom.

Am I correct in saying this is the circulation pump gone?
The serial number is 33 0349 007787, so is it a case of quoting this when shopping around for a motor?

Question for you dishwasher experts: I get the impression this is a well made system. Would you recommend repairing it (myself) taking into account it is 9 years old, or buying a new one which may potentially only last a few years?

Thanks

Hi Dave

Thanks for the quick reply. I will try what you suggest.

Certainly when I open the machine after a rinse there does look like there’s been a lot of water thrown around.

Out of interest I did price an NTC and they come in around £28 with delivery.

Thanks once more and I’ll update you on progress.
