Replace Drain Pump
a pump is a pump so as long as the pipe fittings are the same and the voltage is the same any pump that will fit in the the space will do the job
Dishwasher is stuck in one cycle and will not go
Most Viking models have overflow safety feature that turns the dishwasher into drain mode. The idea is to remove overflow water from the bottom pan. Check the pan behind kick toe panel for water, remove the water and check for leaks. If no water check overflow switch somewhere in the pan, it maybe stuck. Good luck
Viking Dishwasher - Model VUD 141 I need to
Hello, welcome to fixya
Here's what works for me, move the rack stops to the left if you haven't already and then the rack itself. i.e.
and
Now you'll need to remove the bumpers at the back of the rack rail...
i.e.
push down on the bumper as shown
and pull it down and out at the same time...it takes some force, you can use a small screwdriver.
Now you'll need to slide the rail all the way out as shown, but careful not to let the ball bearings fall into the sump area in the process.
I usually hold the broken piece in place while removing the rail...
...( they come in a kit at "repairclinic.com" under number 1394379 like shown here )
The trick now is to install the balls into the holders first
and the holders into the stationary part of the rail on the inside wall...
The inside wall rail will keep the holders in place as you slide the inside rail into place...this will usually require holding the holder with one hand while pushing the sliding rail back into place...
Once this is done, re-install the back rail bumpers followed by the rack and then finally the front rack stoppers and that should do it.
Hope that explain it for you or gives you an idea of how it needs to be done. Please take a moment to rate the assistance I provided here today favorable and a brief testimony is also appreciated when providing free solutions.
Thanks for visiting "fixya" today for your repair help. Let me know if you require further assistance.
Good luck.

P.S.
I should also mention you as I alluded to, be sure none of the old 8 ball bearings didn't fall down into either the drain pump or circulation/wash pump. This is something I've seen far too often on Asko/Viking dishwashers with the end result being a broken impeller in either pump...or both, yikes ! I use a telescopic magnet to fish around as it will be the only object made of metal...unless something else has fallen in the sump well area, it's good to check.
Again, good luck :)
I have a DFUD140 Viking
I'm no expert on this, but it sounds as though the door latch microswitch may be at fault. This maybe located at the latch, or on the hinges.
When I start the dishwasher it seems like the
Pl refer user manual. In general flashing light may mean : no water flow, salt chamber empty, door not closed etc. It all depends on the error code message designed.assigned by the manufacturer.
