Question about Whirlpool 24 in. DU1055XTPS Stainless Steel Built-in Dishwasher

Extremely noisy Whilrpool, sounds like electrical resistance.

My one year old Whirlpool DU1055XTPS makes a horrible noise when it is running. It seems to fill okay, and seems to enter wash cycle, but sometimes gets stuick in wash cycle, and other times goes through drain and rinse fine. The noise often changes pitch or frequency, but never really goes away. There are no error lights or warnings, and this noise does not sound like a buzzer, unless it is a seriously out of adjustment buzzer. There does not appear to be any parts or debris visible in the bottom of the tub, but I have not yet removed any parts. Noise seems to come from upper or middle left side, but there is a heat vent in the control panel, and maybe the sound is just resonating on that side because of this vent area? Please tell me what to look for, and how to fix this.
Thank you,
Charles

Mine did that when the end of the impeller broke off- the sound is the grinding of the remaining end of the impeller against the gears on the engaging end of the chopper. You'll need to get out your screwdriver to dig in deeper and find out if this is the problem.

My whirlpool oven (model rbs305) makes a loud noise whenever it is on. I can't figure out if it's the fan, or just extremely loud.

Hello,

I would suspect that the blower is noisy its what i would expect to potentially make noise ...if fits in the back of the control panel and it comes on to cool the control board each time the oven is on.

In case it turns out to be the blower thats noisy the part number for it is W10176670

Sounds like your motor bearing is wornout.Noise is either from Motor bearing or impellor, It will depend on make of Dishwasher. But if it quits after running noisy and over 7years old, get a new one.

Loud continuous buzzing noise while dishwasher is running

Hi hope you are well have you checked that the dishwasher isnt touching your units either side their should be a slight gap either side you will get this noise if it is touching anything at the sides or pressed up against something at the back if this is not the problem.
If it is making the noise through most of the wash cycle the the chances are it isnt going to be a pump on the way out the only other thing it could be is the motor that turns the spray arms around and it could be either the top or bottom usually if you can get to the motors you can oil the moving parts as sometimes thse get dry over time.
Try the first sollution first try moving the dishwasher a bit and then try it again if still noisy then the chances are one of the motors has got noisy on the spray arms it wouldnt be the pumps as the noise continues through most of the wash.
Some times just moving the dishwasher will recitfy the problem as the same happens with fridges and freezers if it has been knocked and is not level or is touching a unit you will get a slight vibrating noise so try moving it a bit.
Let us know how you get on
