Is Your Samsung DW80J7550UG/AA Dishwasher Making a Loud Humming Noise? I’ll Show you How to Fix it!

[@danaluppi6159]

YOU ARE MY HERO. 🙌🏼 most appliance repair places near me have stopped working on dishwashers since it’s so often cheaper to replace than repair. I was looking at new dishwashers before finding this fix, lo and behold there was a toothpick in there. Thank you so much for this content!! (Your waterwall motor-replacement video also just came in handy😊)

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

@@danaluppi6159 thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind comment and support! I'm so glad this helped you and awesome job!!! Thank you again!

Easy peasy; now runs like a champ. If you are ever in Saint Paul, MN, I'll buy you a beer.

Lawrence! My man! Thanks brother… my plane lands in 15 minutes!!! Cheers 🍻

Excellent video. Thanks very much for walking us through the possibilities. I followed your sequence of events and was prepared to go all the way. Interestingly, my screw driver would not dummy the switch! Once I let the water wall run its cycle, I got the water coming in and reset to get the drainage as you suggested. Before pulling the dishwasher, I rechecked the filter, pulled the screen etc... and took a close look at the cavity. Low and behold I found a wooden toothpick lodged and half buried. Got it out and ran the dishwasher. Guess what - all good! Your video and a few other shorter ones just saved an expensive tech support visit/bill to remove a toothpick!!

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Thanks so awesome Mike! That’s exactly why I wanted to do this! Even if I just helped one person, that’s good for me. I appreciate you so much leaving this comment and supporting my channel. I hope you have a great day my friend and I’ll talk with you later!

This worked, thank you! The culprit was a toothpick in the pump. Unfortunately the armored cable/romex that houses my wires was insanely small - after pulling the dishwasher out of the cabinet we had to re-fish the wires back through it which completely bent the crap out of the metal frame on the wiring box. A little uglier than when we started but that's ok :)

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Drewba! Well done my friend! Glad you got your dishwasher fixed. Isn’t it funny how something as small as a toothpick could cause that? Anyhow, great job and way to save a few bucks. And don’t worry about the wires and box. It happens all of the time! As long as the wires are exposed causing an electrical failure and the beauty plate can install ok, you’re good to go! Thanks again for the feedback. Love hearing these, seriously :)

[@andrewevans446]

thanks very much. By following your instructions I got into the pump from inside the dishwasher and found a little piece of plastic wrap that was plugging things up. Boy are there a lot of screws in there!

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

That’s great Andrew! I’m glad it helped you and you were able to fix your dishwasher! We use ours all the time (as you do) and there is always something going on with them. Great job again and thanks for letting me know! I appreciate the comment and support Andrew!

Thank you for this well detailed video. It came in handy. 👍 👌

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Thanks Real2144! I appreciate that feedback. I'm glad this came in handy and I like knowing it helped someone out there. Thank you again and I hope you have a wonderful night :)

[@mattg4896]

Thanks for making this. Mine started making the same noise a few days ago and I kind of shrugged it off. Yesterday started getting the LC code that the dishwasher was detecting a leak in the bottom. Opened it up and there was some water below, took the pump off and didn’t see anything inside. Drain hose looks good too. Screens inside were both pretty covered though so cleaned them. Will update if problem is fixed.

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Hey Matt! Thanks for writing this and I hope you can find the problem. I was lucky and was able to find junks hitting the pump which mad that sound. I find myself cleaning that out monthly now (never did in the past). Let me know what you can find. I’ve had nothing but issues with Samsung it seems

[@tiffanyhooley5052]

This is the exact noise mine starting making this week! Thank you for this video!!!

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Tiffany! Sucks it’s making that noise, but great that you found this. Make sure you just check the trap. Most likely you can grab whatever is in there and pulling it out. Good luck and thanks again for the support and comment!

[@dougcjohn]

Great video, much appreciated!! My question is how the 2 pieces of debri get past the filter screen. Those were both relatively larger pieces, much bigger than screen holes. Mine just started the same noise today… I have a much better path to check & correct.

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Hey thanks for coming by Doug! So if you take a look at the screen and that round coke shape part that fits in there, you’ll see how those bigger chunks could get in there. I think what happened for me is that a chop stick and straw got loose and just so happened to drop in that bigger opening hitting the motor blade. Since I found that, I find myself every week just taking those sort and seeing if anything is in there. Since the video it’s been clear, so it must of been a fluke. Either way. I think you can easily remove whatever debris is in there by just removing the screen and seeing inside. I had to take mine all of the way out because of how far it “chunked” those prices up because I let it go too long :) good luck in your fix my friend and again, I appreciate you leaving a comment. Hope it helped

[@1981tave]

GreAt video, had the exact same problem with my Samsung, had a piece of wine glass (shard) in the housing. Removed and fixed it right up. Thanks!

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

So glad you found this video and fixed it! That makes my day knowing I could help! Thank you so much 😎

[@dpentola]

I have that exact same dishwasher and it makes a very similar noise. I'll be tackling this project tomorrow.

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Awesome Dave! I wish you luck! Make sure and check that screen at the bottom to see if you can grab whatever is in there out and save you the headache of going underneathe. Sometimes it’s that easy and you can avoid a lot of work. Sorry this is a late response as well, sometimes KZbin doesn’t notify me when a message comes through. Anyhow, good luck and let me know how it goes!

[@adamsanogo1796]

Please can you make demonstration on 7e code error? Thanks

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Thanks Adam! I’m glad it’s helpful and I can try and add this to the list for video ideas. No promises but it’s a great idea and I’ll try and get it done. Thanks again!

[@3D_PILOT]

Glad I found this video, need to do this to mine. Thx for sharing

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Appreciate that Lloyd! Just make sure and check that screen at the bottom before you pull it out… might save you a lot of headaches pulling the whole unit out. You got this 😎

[@abdulshakoor5012]

How to remove top rack?

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Abdul, I’m pretty sure you just pull it out and lift as you go. Or there might be a tab on each side to more then pull it out. I think it’s pretty easy.

[@saninselmanovic]

Thanks for saving me a couple hundred bucks!!

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

I definitely appreciate the comment and really glad I could help you out Sanin! Thanks for the support!

[@adamsanogo1796]

Thanks very helpful

[@graveyardprospecting]

Washing dishes. This is a step down from yard work

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

I have to agree!

[@AdjustinThings]

"Electrical looks good" 😁

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Lol! You got that right brother! Hey man… appreciate you coming by :) I hope you have a very merry Christmas!

[@wendyestrada640]

Why is my unit not drawing

[@StoneyCreekSparkchaser]

Morning Wendy! I’m sorry something isn’t working with your dishwasher. Can you elaborate a little more what’s not working? I’ll try and help if I can :)
