    The Thermador thunders again!

    Well, we'll see how well this thing does, I doubt I'll ever run dishes through it on a non-steam cycle, so we'll see what that gets us. At some point I'll have to run some modern detergent on short wash just to see some less than stellar result, and have to run it again to rid life of all the...

    The Thermador thunders again!

    I can forgive an off odor from a machine full of dirty dishes, but when it’s clean and empty I don’t wanna smell anything!

    The Thermador thunders again!

    That one run with Cascade fryer boil took care of anything in there I didn’t like. I believe it had a cycle canceled in the middle of a wash with detergent, it’s not full of deposits thankfully, but it did have a good bit of detergent residue that washes out. Both this time and the first trial...

    The Thermador thunders again!

    Well I got the motor and pump, unfortunately I was unable to remove the steam element from my pump housing, so I was forced to use my pump, which isn't as nice looking. There was some residue on top of the motor, so I decided it was for the best to use the new impelled and seal kit I had. Here...

    eMail the eBay seller.. I did, and we’ll see if my offer of $170 manages to even get a reply. Still more than I’d like to pay, but it puts it more into the realm of the possible...

    I could have removed the pump as well, and I’d probably be most inclined to just install it whole as well. I could easily transfer the heating element, would give me an excuse to put new seals in there too.

    HEEEELLLLLLLLPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well the shaft seems rusted into the bearing rather well, I can't even remove the plastic slinger thing, the shaft is so rusted inside of it. And it also seems the bearing can't be pushed out of the motor housing. I'm not sure I can save anything from this motor...

    Well here it is! A whole brand new old stock pump and motor. But I'll be flat out (pardon my language) God damned if I'll be paying $280 for it! https://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Thermador-Dishwasher-Motor-Pump-Assembly-part-01-36-705-01-37-601/323760806931?hash=item4b61a5dc13:g:~zAAAOSwtZJY8mBf

    Cleaning Products for the Home

    I use a lot of Zep chemicals, their toilet bowl cleaner, their tube and tile cleaner. I don’t remember what brand of cleaner I’ve used on the glass cooktop though... and I like using the spray can glass cleaner with either newspaper or packing paper to get that streak free clean.

    They only had the one picture, but that is a Whirlpool motor. I figured the shaft would be different though. But I imagine I could use parts from this kind of motor to fix mine? This also had me wondering if the bearing could be completely removed and replaced on its own?

    I have no idea if the shaft is the same, but I believe this is the same motor as the Thermador.

    After a quick Google search, it seems this is very similar to a Whirlpool motor like you said!

    Ok, here the motor is from a couple different angles, and the last picture is the shaft seal and impellers I have on the way for it. If you have a motor or even just motor parts for it that would be great! Just let me know, and let me know what holy want for it!

    Theres evidence that the top of the motor has been wet, more towards the front where the drain hose connection is. As I run it some more I'm going to look at the motor and see if I see moisture. But I know the motor will have to come out, as the bearings sound horrible, and at that point I don't...

    I found an NOS motor shaft seal and impeller kit for this thing, so I bought it. Ideally when I get the new motor (unless replacing the bearings in this one is possible) I'll put it back together with the new seal, and obviously the new impellers too.
