WPW10195677 W10195677 Dishwasher Diverter Valve Diverter Motor Seal Grommet Gasket ，Compatible with Whirlpool, KitchenAid,Maytag and More.

As many reviewers have noted, the most difficult part of replacing this grommett gasket is removing the old one. I had to use a pointed hook tool and basically destroy the old one to remove it. So once i started with this project, i was at a point of no return! Fortunately the part fit and stopped the leak from the diverter motor. Be sure to save the metal spring from the old grommet to place into the new one. be sure to take photos of the situation before you remove anything so you remember how to put things back together. I recommend watching at least two You Tube videos on replacing this part by searching: "fix leaking dishwasher diverter motor seal replacement". It is pretty straightforward, but you don't want to mess up any steps.

Like others. I could see that water was dripping from the diverter motor. It definitely made sense to try replacing the grommet rather than buying a new diverter motor. I was surprised to find how hard it was to remove the old gasket. Having watched the a couple of videos on replacing the diverter motor, I found taking things apart inside the dishwasher to access the grommet to be very easy. It literally took one minute to get everything apart. That was the easy part. The hard part was getting the old grommet out. That was surprisingly difficult. I had good tools: various picks used for removing O-rings and such, but the grommet wouldn't budge. I then tried an ice pick, fine needle nose pliers, and a small screwdriver -- couldn't get the old one out. I wondered if it might be glued in place. I then decided to pull out the dishwasher and remove the diverter motor so the shaft wouldn't be in the way and also so I wouldn't scratch the walls of the cylinder the grommet fits into or the shaft. That helped a lot. Using a very small screwdriver, I was able to pop it out. I put it in partially to test the fit and found it wasn't nearly as snug as the original so I wrapped two layers of teflon plumbing tape around it and put it aside for the moment. I then decided to re-attach the diverter motor. I wasn't sure if it made more sense to put the grommet in first and then the motor or vice versa. I decided to reattach the motor first so I wouldn't push the grommet out of place and mess up the teflon wrap when trying to push the shaft up through it. With the motor in place, I put some plumbing grease on the shaft, then inserted the grommet with the groove-side up (flat side down). It was a snug fit, which I was happy about. I pushed it down in place using a small open-end wrench which ensured even pressure. A little bit of the teflon tape pushed up as I pushed the grommet down, but enough of it seemed to be staying in place. I then put things back together as shown in the videos, turned the water and power back on and tested it out, while lying on the floor looking to see if there were any leaks. My heart sank when I saw a drip, but it turned out that was it - literally one tiny drip and no more for the whole rest of the wash. I knew for sure that was the case because I had slipped a cookie sheet underneath the motor so I'd catch and drips and also be able to tell how much it had leaked, if at all. My dishwasher is an old (probably 10 years) Whirlpool model WDF730PAYB3

With a correct installation, this fixed the leak. Installation instructions: To help remove the old grommet, I purchased this hook set: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07676QLSQ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details and used the 90 degree hook to slide down the diverter motor shaft (the white plastic piece) and pull the old one out. I was surprised when it slipped right off. Perhaps because the grommet was pretty worn? Just be careful that you don't drop the grommet down into the sump water feed as it's very difficult to remove :) I ended up having to turn the power back on to the dishwasher and run a few seconds on the express wash to blow the grommet out. If you have to do this, be ready with something to catch all of the water that will for sure leak. I ran the drain function to remove all of the excess water in the sump. Take note of the grommet orientation whether it is spring side up or down. I'm not sure how important this part is, but it could be important to prevent leaks. VERY IMPORTANT: After removing the old grommet, I used the full hook to very carefully pull the spring out of the old grommet and then used the straight hook to slip it on to the new grommet. As I've seen a lot of reviews say they needed teflon tape to keep it from leaking, I can only assume they skipped this step. Don't forget the spring! Next step: I applied some silicone grease (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000DZFUPC?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details) on the inside of the new grommet and carefully slipped it over the diverter motor shaft. As I goofed up pulling out the old grommet, I'm not entire sure whether the spring side goes up or down. It looked like it was spring side up on the old one before I pulled it out, so that's the way I put it in. I wiped the excess grease off the diverter motor shaft and replaced all of the parts. Aside from when I goofed up and dropped the old grommet, this took a total of about 15 minutes to fix. I'd watched a handful of videos of how to replace the sump and diverter motor, so I was pretty familiar with general disassembly, so it might be worth watching a handful of related videos. I did not need to pull the dishwasher out at all which was nice.

This was for fixing a leak in a Kenmore model 665.13289K110. When it was first installed it leaked quite a bit, and didn't change even after two runs of the dishwasher. The outer diameter was a tad too small for the hole it fit in so required wrapping the outer diameter with some Teflon tape. Once that was done and reinstalled, it was a tight fit, and was completely leak free for 3 runs. Will still keep a small pan under it as a safety measure and monitor it a bit more, but it appears to have fixed the leak. Update: Still leak free after 2 months of operation

The repair guy said it would cost $635 to repair the leak in my 2011 Kenmore DW ... it needed a total pump assembly replacement requiring 1 to 1-1/2 hours including pulling the DW out. The estimate cost me $99. Robbery. I said, "No." I went to YouTube and found a video showing a $5 repair from inside the tub. I ordered what I thought was the correct grommet for the diverter pump shaft. It cost $10, not $5 but who knows when the guy made the video? It arrived from Amazon 3 days and in about 90 seconds (the trays, lower spray arm and upper spray arm tube were already disconnected) I had the new washer in and all put together. A Quick Rinse Cycle showed no drips. The next day, a full cycle showed no leaks. Even though the grommet was a little thicker than the one I removed, it seems to work perfectly. I'm leaving the toekick pieces off the bottom and will monitor the unit for another week or two to make sure it is still OK. YouTube is GREAT at showing normal Joes how to repair things. Thanks to the people who post their videos.

Just what I needed to fix my leaky dishwasher! My Kitchenaid was leaking and this had happened on a previous dishwasher, so I knew what part I needed to order. This $9 part saved me hundreds by not having to call a repairman. I just searched online for a video to show me where and how to replace it. It was pretty easy! 6 months later, still no leaks!

This simply didn’t fit as it should and therefore caused the dishwasher to leak even worse than the one it replaced. Do not buy, it’s slightly smaller than it needs to be. Bought same thing from another retailer and that worked perfectly.

After replacing the main pump seal and the main pump hose, my dishwasher was still leaking. I eventually decided it was probably this grommet. You can't buy this item as a factory part. It comes with the rather expensive sump. It's highway robbery to have to buy the whole sump for a tiny grommet which is known to wear out after several years of use. Besides the expense, the waste of manufacturing, and shipping a rather large and unneeded part is an environmental travesty. It makes me very angry at Whirlpool, the actual maker of the dishwasher. Having said that, the new grommet was perfect. The old one is a chore to get out, but worth the trouble. The new one is easy to install. This was not the cheapest one on Amazon, but it had good reviews, and for a few extra dollars, I decided it was the safe bet. Now it has another good review. It also comes with a money back guarantee which the seller promises to honor even if it's beyond the Amazon return period.

The Grommet fit perfectly and stopped the leak, as well easy to install. My only complaint was the cost. $30 in Canada but $7 in the States. I know the dollar isn't the same but holy mark up. Amazon should look into why the huge range in cost.

When my machine started leaking, I diagnosed the problem and called the repair shops, and they all tried to sell me a $350 sump replacement. That’s parts ALONE. If you include labour, it’s not even worth fixing. Instead I decided to take a risk and see if this little grommet would fix the problem, sure enough it did. It’s absurd that whirlpool doesn’t sell this cheap part and they expect you to replace the whole sump assembly when a tiny rubber seal fails (seems to be a very common problem, my neighbours have exact same machine and theirs failed too). The repair was pretty easy and if you can find instructions, you could do it yourself in about 20 minutes. $30 does seem steep for a little chunk of rubber, but it’s far better than spending $350 on a sump, or $600 to have someone do it for you, or $1000 for a whole new machine. It’s an easy fix, you can do it yourself.

It leaked worse than before. Ended up changing the whole bottom end and finally fixed the leak

It fits my w10849439 Kitchenaid dishwasher. A big higher than the original one but works perfectly, no more leask. Just overpriced for this piece of rubber :)

Happy for sure. Worked as intended however I'm not loving the fact of how much it cost for what amounts to a little rubber washer and spring. Sure its an engeneered part but the cost is way out of wack and takes advantage of poor manufactures policy of replacing the entire assembly (sump) **Kudos for ensuring dishwasher was repairable but should easily be 1/4 the price. Also ensure you replace the diverter motor as if you need this part, the motor got wet!
