I have taken everthing apart down to the wash impeller and it will not come off. After taking out the screw, I have sprayed the area with WD40 and the impeller still won't budge. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Rod.,

You will most likely have to break up the impeller and cut the plastic impeller shaft, off the motor shaft, with a Dremel tool, or work on it untill you crack it and can lift it off, be careful, you dont want to damage the motor bearings or shaft.

The WD 40, will help to soften and clean the corrosion built up between the impeller and motor shaft.

Make sure you order a new wash impeller, mounting screw and screw seal, and do not over tighten the screw.
