Fisher & Paykel part 524185P is the genuine PH3 motor rotor assembly for DishDrawer dishwashers, the no notch version of this rotor. It replaces the earlier numbers 525884P and 524307P. It's listed for the DD601, DD602 and DD603 double drawers and the DS601 and DS603 single drawers, including integrated versions such as the DD603I and DS603I.

DishDrawer not washing or making a grinding noise

The DishDrawer wash motor is split in two. The stator stays under the tub, while the rotor sits down in the sump and spins the impeller that drives water up to the spray arm. Broken glass, bone or grit can chip the impeller or jam the rotor, and wear can leave it running out of true. Typical symptoms are a grinding or rattling noise, dishes coming out dirty, water left in the drawer, or a motor fault code. A rotor that wobbles or has damaged vanes needs replacing.

Fitting the rotor

Switch the dishwasher off at the wall. Take out the filter and the sump parts that sit above the rotor, then lift the old rotor out. Inspect the O-ring and replace it if it's flattened or cracked, since a tired O-ring can leak. Drop the new rotor in, refit the sump parts and filter, then run a rinse cycle and listen for smooth running.

Questions about this part

Does this rotor come with the O-ring?

The O-ring that seals around the rotor is listed as its own part, 523049. If the old one is worn, flattened or nicked, order it at the same time so the new rotor seals properly.
