The "self-cleaning" screens on my dishwasher are pretty gummed up after a couple years of use. I've taken the unit a part as much as I can, brushed the screens with a toothbrush and soapy water, sprayed them off, put it all back together. I see that the newer LG dishwashers have a removable filter screen (like the most excellent Asco models have had for decades). Can I possibly replace all or part of my motor unit with a newer cleanable screen unit? It would be great if those parts were backward compatible.
SOURCE: LG Dishwasher - drain hose replacement
Hello, I have just installed a similar model, and took the side panel off to see how it was put together ;)
The drain hose goes in the back of the dishwasher, then loops up the right side (as you are looking at the front)(this is to act as a "trap" to keep sewer gases from coming back into your washer, I assume), and then connects to the drain pump under the washer.
In order the change the hose, you will need to remove the left side panel, and the bottom panel, and this will give you access to the entire hose....
Hope this helps!

Recommendations:
-Switch to a brand name detergent powder - like Electrosol or Cascade and do not fill the dispenser cup full. You will notice the difference immediately.
-Remove the filter assembly one more time and inspect underneath with a flashlight. Look closely for debris and also inspect the impeller to look for damage and that it is spinning freely.
Reassemble and listen for the growling sound. It should not happen. If it continues, you may have a a failing wash motor / motor bearing.
Please report back what you find. OK?
