If the unit is just humming and then cuts itself off, you could have a defective motor. However, this same symptom could be caused by something being caught in the pump assembly.

Some dishwashers have a soft food disposal inside. If something is hung up, it will grind or hum for a long time. If this is the problem, it will eventually go away.
Possibly something stuck/jammed in the wash or drainpropeller, remove filter mesh at the bottom of the dishwasher. Remove any debris jammed near the propeller caution there may be glassor debris near or where the water drains-out.Removeand clean the spray arms, they may have food debris jammed, rinse in hotrunning waterMaintainerWash Runa wash with a tablespoon of powder, without any dishes on the hottest settinge.g. intensive, 65C, if you have a 70C this will be more effective.Loaddishes and re-check
Refer to the service manual in disassembling the device.. Clean it thoroughly then try it again.. If, you have no experience in doing so, hire a qualified tech to do so.
Check and see if the inner drum is loose and floppy.if it is, it's likely the bearings have collapsed, and require replacement...If the drum feels stiff and tight, it could be that something is jammed between the inner and outer drums. Both situations could be costly...Get quotes....Good luck...Nomess
Check for bones/glass/ceramic from chipped plates in the food chopper (for lack of a better term). You'll need to disassemble the entire lower arm unit.
It may be more cost affective to just replace this unit. the circulation motors that are used in these dishwashers are not reliable. the wash impellers seems to have issues dealing with staying attached to the drive stud and shaft. this will cause the impeller ti shift inside the housing, causing noise and jams.
A new circulating impeller kit will cost about 100 dollars and, labor for this type of repair is 80 dollars an hour.
Hi there.
First of all pull out the paper jam cover - is behind the printer with a clock-like handle. Pull it out and check for any paper or other objects. If U dont see anything try to manualy rotate the black rubber rollers and check for that noise. Locate it and try to describe what you see.
It could be the impeller on the motor. The impeller fits over the shaft of the motor and might have split/broken up. That funny noise is probably the shaft spinning inside the damage impeller. Fortunately the impeler is fairly inexpensive and easy to replace. I believe there are one or two parts/covers to remove that are held in by a roughly half dozen torx screws.
This series of machine has frequent issues with the sensors in the paper path to detect timing and position. The sensors are actually optical but the utilize sensor"flags" to interrupt the sesnors light "beam". These sensor flags tend to pop out of position and/or break the springs. I have also seen the actual optical sensor fail.
Hi Fix it mom,
If your courageous, pull the trays out of the way and remove the screen in bottom of the dishwasher to see if something is getting into the pump. By something I mean undesired matter. Straw, Twist tie, knife, toothpick, etc... I hope this helps
