Four year old Whirlpool Gold dishwasher. Opened the dishwasher Monday morning and the dishes were dirty, so I reran a couple of times.

After doing some testing and reading up on it, I think my circulation pump may be fried, but thought it worth checking if there were alternatives.

The washer fills and drains properly. During the wash cycle, I do hear a humming under the kickplate (which does sound like it is coming from the pump). However, water doesn't move and the arms don't turn.

I think my pump is fried, but I'm hesitant to have a tech come check ($75) and think about replacing the pump ($189 in Canada for the part alone) as opposed to cutting my losses and getting a new D/W.

Suggestions appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks. I pulled the pump. Impeller spins easily and there's nothing inside. Pretty sure its fried, though no guarantee there isn't something else.

Question is on a 4 year old dishwasher, what else is likely to go wrong. Debating whether to just replace the pump or go new...
