I started the dishwasher & it began to fill up with water - then the noise started next it started leaking all over the floor! Any suggestions?

There is no other numbers listed for the model # - no other room for any additional numbers & the whole name plate is in place.

Fortunately they both have the same pumps. If there is no cracks in the pump body then the motor assembly has to be replaced. You probably have to order the volute seal together with the motor. - The motor assembly Part number: AP3179652 - The volute seal Part number: AP3039198 Gene.

By chance do you know - Can we order this at any place that sells dishwashers or do we need to special order it from a particular place? Thank you again! :)

It suppose to be a special appliance parts store. If you would like to buy it through Appliance Parts Pros then you can talk to their team regarding the ETA on the motor. Gene.
