Dishwasher has starting making a real loud noise when running. sounds like it might be the motor or bearings or something! Still working fine, it's just very loud!!! Andy ideas?
It could be the motor bearings, they can go out if the pump seal starts to leak and moisture gets to the motor bearings. If that is the case you are looking at about $180.00 for the sump and motor (parts only).
It could also be something caught in the sump near the chopper that is creating the noise. Here is a link to some clean out instructions if you are up for trying them.
