522248P Genuine Wash Motor Rotor Assembly 901 for Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer Dishwashers DD90STI2 DD90SDFTX1

Part 522248P is the genuine Fisher & Paykel motor rotor assembly, the 901 version listed for the DD90STI2 and DD90SDFTX1 DishDrawer dishwashers. It is the turning half of the drawer's wash motor and is worth checking when a drawer fills but won't wash properly, or grinds and rattles during the cycle.

DishDrawer not washing or grinding during the cycle?

DishDrawers drive the wash pump with an electronic motor made up of a fixed stator and a rotor that spins inside it. The rotor is the part that turns, driving the pump that sends water up through the wash arm. Debris such as broken glass, seeds or bones can get past the filter and damage it, and worn running surfaces make it noisy or sluggish. Signs include a drawer that fills and drains but leaves dishes dirty, a wash arm that barely turns, grinding or rattling during the wash, or the drawer stopping with a fault code.

Part details

• Genuine Fisher & Paykel part 522248P
• Rotor assembly for the DishDrawer wash motor, 901 version
• Listed for DD90STI2 and DD90SDFTX1

Checking and fitting the rotor

Turn the dishwasher off at the wall before starting. On most DishDrawers the rotor is reached from inside the drawer after the filter and wash arm come out, so note the order of each piece as you remove it. Clear any debris, seat the new rotor fully and reassemble in reverse. Run a short program and listen for smooth, quiet running. A qualified technician can do this if you prefer.

Questions about this part

Do I need the stator as well?

Not always. If the fault is a worn or damaged rotor and the stator tests fine, the rotor alone is the fix. A technician can check the stator windings with a multimeter if you aren't sure which half of the motor has failed.
