Samsung Dishwasher Assembly of Inside Parts

- So, I have since learned about the product called Dishwasher Magic - you can get it at pretty much any big box store or Amazon. This sanitizes and gets rid of grease and junk. Try this product before you take apart your dishwasher.

I took the entire inside of my dishwasher apart to clean it and couldn’t find a video on how to reassemble it.
My videos aren’t the greatest quality but I really needed to save this so I can refer to it again.
Thought I would post in case if it helped someone else.
NOTE: the impeller (it's white) is reverse threaded. Hold the impeller while unscrewing so it doesn't spin.
This person describes it in detail:
@yanstev
On some Samsung models, the impeller screw is reverse threaded (i.e. clockwise to loosen, counter clockwise to tighten when looking down at the screw head.)
That is the only screw that is reverse threaded. It should not take a lot of turning pressure to loosen or tighten because the thread part holding the screws is plastic, therefore easily stripped if you over tighten.

Samsung are you kidding? Way too difficult even for a DIY 75 yr. old widow who will tackle anything. One would thing they would make it easier to keep it clean, but thank you Sunshine for showing me this.
You’re welcome Rose. This dishwasher died last summer on me so I don’t have it anymore. And the one I have is super easy to clean.
I’ll have to do another video.
Thank you so much for this video. For showing where each screw went back in. I had one extra and couldn’t see where it went.
THANK YOU - I would have been lost without this. Y’all made it easy!
This is super helpful! We got our dishwasher in March and it’s started to have a bad smell recently that our old one never did! Now I know what to do to clean it, thank you!
This was excellent! Thank you so much for spending the time to film and post this wonderfully helpful video. Brava!!
You are very welcome Judith! =)
This is the most helpful video I have ever seen on my Samsung dishwasher. I have taken it partially apart but have never known how to get the piece on the back and top off. Thank you so much
You're welcome Carol :)
Thank you so much for this video! Very easy to follow and the only one I could find just like my dishwasher.
Thank you so much for taking time to upload the video. I just bought the dish washer and wanted to know how to take the inside and your video really helped.
Thank you so much for this... I had a great time taking it apart but didn't take enough photos to put it back together confidently. I had two pieces I wasn't sure where to put - the heat shield (metal tube) for the support strut between the heating coils, and the rubber gasket for where the sprayer tube that goes up the back of the dishwasher connects to the bottom assembly. But I was able to spot them both in your video and confirm their proper locations. That helped immensely!

Glad it helped! 😊
Thank you for this. Need to take mine apart and clean and this is just the ticket.
So helpful! Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you so much for this video! I was glad I found it before taking ours apart! It saved me the time of not having to record when taking it apart! We just had one extra piece to put that I think it for the storm wash possibly and that was it! Thank you
You are very welcome Tony 😊
Yall are livesavers! Thank you to infinity!
THANK YOU so much for this! I would not have had the courage to take ours apart to fix it, if it had not been for this video! Had some rattling/grinding noise that sounded really bad. I ended up finding a couple pieces of plastic (that had broken off from the top basket holders) and were stuck at the very bottom of all that. Probably saved us a few hundred dollars/maybe even a new dishwasher. Not sure if the technician would have checked down there. Last time, he only checked the pumps.
Thanks again for taking the time to do this. I cannot tell you how much it helped!
I’m so grateful this video has been helpful for so many.
And yes, Samsung is the worst. It finally died about a year ago. We bought a Bosch. Worked 100x better from the first wash!
We have the same dishwasher and this video was very helpful!!!!!
Thanks and Blessings!!!!😇
It was well filmed and well narrated. Nothing like Yankee ingenuity!
Kelly Wilson lol yep! 😁
Well, Samsung certainly didn't make this an easy job!! I am going to tackle it the next time I go to my son's condo. Thanks for the tutorial and confirming that I really do need to take out all those screws! Bosch for the win.
Yep! When this Samsung died in April I went with a Bosch. Best ever!
This was very helpful. Now my dishwasher to working !! Thank you !!
So glad lad it helped!
Oh my gosh that's a lot of parts to take off🤦 why are things so difficult? Guess I'll give it a go!! Thanks for posting this!!
At the time I didn’t want to think that all of this was necessary, however, I was surprised that even the sprayer arms had food inside of them. Some of the holes were blocked entirely preventing water from being able to get through.
Agree, I am not a fan of Samsung, but happen to unfortunately have all appliance from them included in the condo I purchased. I have had so many repairs to the side by side refrig, I lost count. I will never buy a Samsung replacement appliance.
@@roseannsullivan1871 I totally agree with you. When we got our dishwasher we had gotten a refrigerator around the same time that was Samsung. Both were absolutely horrible for repairs. Never again!!
I am so glad you guys made this video!! You just made me a hero in my house. I took my dishwasher apart, and forgot to take pictures ( dummy me) haha. Anyway, you just got a like and a new sub. Thanks again!!
THIS FUCKING WORKS!!!!! Thank you so much!!!! I disassembled everything inside and forgot how to put it back together. I forgot where all the screws went.This video is a lifesaver because there isnt any youtube video on how to reassemble the dishwasher. Thank you so very much!!!!!!
Ypu are so welcome Nunya! I thought I was going to lose my mind. Lol. My husband saved the day. 😁
@@life_with_sunshine Would you loan out your hubbie?
@@roseannsullivan1871 Lol , how far away do you live?
We’re in the western part of the upper Peninsula of Michigan.
THANK YOU SO MUCH for this video!!! I called Samsung tech support to ask if there was a filter somewhere that would need cleaning. Of course they said yes but “I really should have a Samsung repair man do it” because I could end up breaking a part. I thought “yeah, right!”. Pay them probably over $100 to come in and clean a filter. I knew that I could do it myself but I just wanted to know what to anticipate. I did a search and Ba Da Bing! there was your video! Thanks again 🤩👍
Never buy a Samsung major appliance, I have had trouble with ALL that came with my home. Major junk, all the appliances are made for a technician to repair. $$$$
@@roseannsullivan1871 I couldn’t agree with you more! They make a great TV, but they totally suck at kitchen appliances!
Thank you thank you thank you!! I had mine taken apart, but for the life of me I couldn't get it back together. Thank you again!!
Glad I could help!
Thank you for sharing! It was so intimidating before I found your video..
The gunk I found was ... unbelievable. Merci beaucoup!
Great detail that’s not in the manual. Thank you!
Took mine apart today and put back together with help from this video. Thank you so much for sharing!
You are Lifesavers! I was staring at the stupid thing for 20 minutes LOL trying to figure it out.
backrwr8
that would have been me. Lol
Thank you!!! Thank you soooo much for the video. I didn't take pictures when removing thinking I could throw it back together. But you saved me from getting a butt kickin from the wifey!
So glad it helped...lol
Thank you this helped us so much!!
Oh my gosh! Thank you for the video:) I did the same thing- took it apart to clean and couldn't figure out how to put it back together. Thank god for your video!
Angie8485 your so welcome! I forgot I had this out there.
Thank you for making this video. It was really helpful.
Great video! Thanks!
Thank you very much for this!
Thank you for the video! It helped me remember how to reassemble it.
Thank you for sharing!!
Thank you for this simple video. At 11pm one night, I discovered my Samsung dishwasher (full of dishes) was not running and was blinking a code indicating it was not draining. Although it was draining, it was not draining freely enough. So I hand washed and dried all the dishes and after watching your video, I took it apart, cleaned it (which was disgusting) , scrubbed all the parts in degreaser reassembled it. Then poured in about a quart of bleach and ran it on a sanitizing cycle. Probably saved me about $200 or more on a service call. My wife slept through the whole thing. Lol.
Wow - you are the man!! Lol
I was surprised at how absolutely disgusting it was when I took this apart.
You saved me! Thanks!
Ok this was so helpful!!!! Thank you!
You’re welcome Benjamin 😊
Very helpful, thank you!
Thanks for the video! Came in handy.
Will Black
You’re very welcome! 😊
Thanks for this video!
You are welcome, glad it was helpful!
You solved my problem or my mistake that I put the chopper wheel in first which ultimately doesn't have enough clearance to put it back together. Thank you for sharing.
Is there a trick to getting the white wheel off that covers the chopper?
You're a lifesaver, thanks
Happy to help!
Omg thank you so much for this. For some reason the dish gel keeps landing on top of the dishes on the bottom rack and so I tried to do everything I could and I dissembled it as a last effort.
I'm not a very handy man so I tried to keep the pieces together and once I accidently tumbled the pieces over I was so lost. This is literally the only video I can find and you helped me reassemble it before my wife came back home 😅 close one.
Question. At the very bottom (where the vid starts by the 2 white wire things) there was water. Should there be water there? It was a small amount too hard to reach or dry.
@@whydoyoukeeptalking yes there is always going to be a small amount of water in there. It never drains completely when the cycle is done. We actually have a new Bosch dishwasher and it's the same exact thing whenever I take out the filter to clean it.
Thanks this helped me and it was strap to the point.
Thank you! This video saved my butt
Happy to have helped!
God bless you. Thank you for this video!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼
So glad you found this helpful. God bless you to Carolina ♥️
Thank you so much for this video. The white thing is the impeller. Mine looks the exact same model but the impeller screw was reverse threaded. So needed to turn it clockwise to loosen it. Just letting others know incase anyone is struggling to remove the impeller.
Thank you so much for sharing that Rahul :)
@@life_with_sunshine No problem :)
I appreciate it
I've viewed numerous videos on cleaning a Samsung DW and noticed differing instructions on removing the impeller screw. As you demonstrate, I also used the typical "lefty loosey- righty tighty" method but have seen other videos instruct the opposite ..albeit not surprised in lieu of the imperler's function. Hence, use caution when removing impeller screw to avoid damage to plastic threads ...if, by chance, your model should have a "reverse thread" for securing the impeller. BTW, excellent video!
Thank you thank you thank you sooo much!!! ❤❤❤❤
Thank you for this! I kept seeing videos from cleaners showing how easy the filter comes out in dishwashers and mine didn't look anything like it ... It had all the screws like yours! Got everything right down to the food chopper. Unfortunately that final screw was too tight to the point where we were strong it so hard to leave it. ☹️
oh bummer. I wonder if an electric drill would help. If you don’t have one see if a friend does.
you can use CLR and a plastic tool to remove the lime scale from the heater elements. you should do that because they are less efficient when covered in scale.
Thank you for this. Someone suggested vinegar but I think this would be much more efficient.
The screw holding the white, round, impeller in this model appears to tighten in the traditional righty-tighty method.
I watched a video on here with another Samsung dishwasher that worked just the opposite.
If you stick another screwdriver into the impeller, it will hold it still and allow you to unscrew it. Same goes on tightening it back.
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you
Thanks it helped a lot.
You're welcome!
Pour some vinegar onto the heating tubes so its submerged and let it soak for a while to remove the lime scale. This is important to get the water hot enough to be considered sanitizing.
RSXtra that is a great idea! I I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. I will do that thank you so much for your comment. 😍
Thank you so much I have a question my washer after is done steel sweat inside can you hold me please thank you
🎉 bravo, bravo🎉
Good job.
Thanks!
Hey! Thanks for this. I also took mine apart and couldn’t figure out how to put it back. I filled where the heating element is with vinegar for a few hours and the calcium came right off. Then I held down the two buttons to make it drain and put it back together. This might make the machine more efficient if the element is clean?
That is a really great idea. Thank you for sharing 💖
Hello I’m so glad I saw this I have the same dishwasher. Today I took it apart due to not draining and the white disk can’t be screwed back in no matter the type of screw we use. We have tried just about everything and my husband put it without the screw. Do you happen to know if there is a replacement kit for this machine?
Hi Lmma - are you talking about the white disc at the 1:10 mark in the video? I remember that even after you put the screw in it continues to spin. They type of screw is flat on the bottom. Is your dishwasher still apart? You can the part to a Lowe's or Home Depot and have them fit a screw for you. I'm not sure how long of one you'll need so maybe get a couple different sizes? I think it's this part right here: partsdr.com/part/dd82-01125a-wash-impeller-assembly
You have a very informative video. Thank you. Do you know anything about filter replacement or cleaning the filter. I noticed a circle on the left inner portion of the dishwasher a few inches off the bottom of it. It has turn instructions how to open it. It seems to be on pretty tight. Is there a specific tool you use? Hand loosening isn't an option apparently. 😆
I just moved into a rental and the dishwasher appears to be identical to the one in your video.
Again.... Thanks for taking this video for everyone
Jacob Maier my husband said he didn’t remove that part at all.
It it's the impeller, it's reverse thread. Loosen is clockwise.
Famlfax Clubhouse
Thank you for this! 😊
Nice video, I just saw that my bottom part is not align in front hence the tube in the back is not align with the hole. this is probably why it gets some things in the washer, I have never touch this part so it mus of been like that always or we got it repair once and they must of put it back the wrong way.
Glad you found the video helpful 😊
you losing heat CLR WILL HELP REMOVE THE LIME. SOAK 24 HR USE A BUTTER KNIFE THE HELP REMOVE THE LIME
I have the same dishwasher but mine has gaskets between each of the plastic parts. Did yours not have any or did you not use them?
I am so sorry I do not remember. We actually don't have this dishwasher anymore because it died.
The bottom of spray arm now won’t stay attached. I have tried many times and it keeps popping out which results in dirty dishes. Any advice?
It might not be snapped into place hard enough. It just snapped into place. Take the rack out and see if you can align it with anything and then press down until it snaps into place.
Thanks! I am having difficulty with removing the water pump (what husband said it was...that little white circular piece) any help would be great
I have the same dishwasher as you
Are you talking about the piece at 1:24 minutes?
Yea the part that ended at the time...I tried wedging a screwdriver to stop it from spinning and ended up stripping the screw so I won’t be able to clean underneath that 😕
Never mentioned that the pump screw is left hand threaded?
Thank you for pointing that out. I was trying to figure out how to pin that information at the top. I think I'll need to put it in the description.
Do you have to unplug the unit before doing all this and do you have to pull unit out as well?
You can shut the breaker off as an extra safety measure.
You do not need to unplug it and you do not need to pull it out from the wall. Everything is done from inside.
How did you get the wheel out that is above the food chopper? I can’t get the screw to turn.
We couldn't get it either!
On some Samsung models, the impeller screw is reverse threaded (i.e. clockwise to loosen, counter clockwise to tighten when looking down at the screw head.) That is the only screw that is reverse threaded. It should not take a lot of turning pressure to loosen or tighten because the thread part holding the screws is plastic, therefore easily stripped if you over tighten.
Did your dishwasher clean dishes better after doing this? Mine is identical and doesn’t seem to clean dishes great, so I’m wondering if doing this would help.
Hi Justin, to be honest I don't really remember. The dishwasher died about five years ago. Never get another Samsung dishwasher! Since then I've learned about the product called dishwasher magic. You can get it at Walmart and such or Amazon. I use this once a month pretty much on my new dishwasher.
www.amazon.com/Dishwasher-Magic-Disinfectant-Cleaner-Lime/dp/B00QU18IT8/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=dishwasher+magic+machine+cleaner&qid=1679692137&sr=8-3
Oh and the type of dishwasher tabs you are using make all the difference. The Finish brand is horrible - even on my new Bosch dishwasher. I can only use cascade brand it seems to be the only thing that really works.
My blade was on the upper side of the stainless strainer just under the pump impeller... did anyone else have it like this? Looking at mine it seems if the blade is underneath it has a gap of about 1/8” correct me if I’m wrong, I just don’t understand why mine was not identical to yours and yet everything else was. So again if someone else experienced this respond. Still yet a big thanks for the video! That I do still appreciate
You're welcome, I hope you were able to get it figured out.
There is a rubber like flap down there
Where the water is coming in
How that rubber suppose to be
How in the world did you manage to take apart the bottom spray arm?
I don’t even remember. I just know when I got it all apart I called my husband and said “I don’t know how to put this back together.” Lol
But look to see if there are any screws or if it comes off by pushing down and turning.
What’s the model of this dishwasher. Having an issue with it draining.
Hi Bryan, we no longer have the dishwasher. Our previous GE did that and 2 different technicians couldn’t figure it out so we got rid of it.
So cleaning your dishwasher like that does it help with the smell at all because for some reason man has this sour smell. And I have tried different dishwasher cleaners and nothing seems to be getting the smell to disappear.
I was told to clean the filter but I can’t get that to come off at all and so far I’ve broken down my dishwasher and cleaned it and I’m in the process of putting it back together but my dishwasher wasn’t really dirty down in there so I don’t know what’s causing the smell.
Hi Alicia - when you put the door down you will see a black flap at the bottom of the door where it meets the inside of the dishwasher. The one thing I hated about this dishwasher was that never sealed properly to keep food out from under that flap.
If you lift that flap up I can almost guarantee it’s filled with debris.
Use something like orange cleaner that is also a degreaser and a bottle brush yo clean out underneath it really well.
After I discovered that I kept it clean on a regular basis. Hope this helps.
@@life_with_sunshine Is there a solution for the seal at the bottom of the door? I have cleaned my Samsung over and over, sanitized. Still stinks. The black sludge that is caught in the door "flap" is never ending. I am sure I am sick from it.
@@MommyKat2004 This issue is a huge problem to me with this dishwasher. Your seal may need to be replaced?
I’ve used straight white vinegar (kills most bacteria) using a bottle brush and water clean it out good. It’s challenging to see under the flap but do the best that you can.
Then spray a bunch more vinegar in there and just leave it sit until your next cycle of dishes that you do. It won’t damage anything. Hopefully this helps. Keep me updated.
@@life_with_sunshine Thank you! I am actually done with it. I am throwing it away. Don't feel right donating such a thing. It has happened since first installing it in 2014. I am on the hunt for another DW.
@@MommyKat2004 I don't blame you one bit. Look at Bosch or Kitchen Aid. Do some research. I'll never get another Samsung appliance again.
what did you do to actually clean all the gunk out?
Washed The parts in hot soapy dish water. For the sprayer arms I flushed with water in the bathtub. You may need to use a toothbrush or something to dislodge any particles stuck in the holes of the sprayer arm.
How did you get the little white thing that turns out, I have tried but it turns as I turn the screw
Hi Tim, it's been a bit since I have done this and we no longer own the dishwasher (it died). After watching that part of the video I'm thinking I might have used a pair of pliers to hold it in place while I unscrewed it. I'm so sorry that I'm not more helpful. I hope you're able to get it off.
@Sunshine I have tried that as well. Does your husband remember if it was righty tighty or lefty loosey to unscrew it. I have only tried to turn it left to take off. I keep getting an OC code because water won't drain.
@@timgrubbs2299 I'll ask when he gets home from work tonight. So the standing water that's in the bottom we ended up having a repair man come out but it was not fixable. At least he couldn't figure it out. That's when we had to buy a new dishwasher. But I'll have my husband watch that part in the video and see what he remembers.
Does the filter on the side come out? Been trying to pull it out but it won’t budge
Hi Zoya, we couldn’t get it off, I didn’t think to look and see if there is a video. I was afraid of damaging it.
Zoya Ahmad
Check the replies on the comment above from Jacob Maier - someone gave the instructions.
Sunshine Thanks! Will try it
I also am trying to figure out how to get the filter off and have had no luck!
@@aliciahardman1460 i haven’t had any luck either, I think it needs to be taken out professionally
Thanks! If only Samsung would have explained in my useless user's manual. And their customer support is a joke. I would never buy a refrigerator, stove or air conditioner if I understood ahead of time that routine maintenance would be this involved. I'll never buy another Samsung appliance as a result. These devices are supposed to be LABOR-SAVING, not the other way around.
Same here! Shortly after we purchased the dishwasher we bought a refrigerator. Biggest mistake ever. We had so many issues with it.
Glad the video was helpful. 😊
@@life_with_sunshine yes you did a great job. But now I'm worried because I also purchased a Samsung refrigerator. So far, no complaints, but I'll be curious to see any videos on that item :D
@@michaelwallace6939 I don’t have any of those videos. Lol
All I know is it died within one month before the warranty expired and we got all of our money back. Went back-and-forth with them for a bit and really complained and they finally gave us our money back.
@@life_with_sunshine I rent and mine was brand new and lasted less than 3 months. Landlords exchanged for another Samsung and so far its lasted year
I’ll NEVER buy another Samsung product after this mess. What are they thinking. Had other dishwashers for years not needing this level of maintenance
How did u get the top rack out? Ahhh!!
Hi Jessica, we don’t have the dishwasher anymore and I can’t remember. I think they were either a couple of buttons on the side that I had to push or as you take it out at the end of the rack there might be a plug that you have to pull out?? Search to see if there’s a video on that. I didn’t film taking it apart - I actually didn’t think this video would even be as popular as it is. AnyWho, I’m notorious for taking things apart and “oops, calls hubby, help!” Lol
@@life_with_sunshine well thanx 4 responding to my question. I found the clip on the ends of the rack.👍 Cleaned it all out an there is still glass in the bottom farther than ur video. I'm glad ur video was there I referred to to 3 times. Wouldn't have been as confident about the clips.
My God what a nightmare! My dishwasher has a hand removable filter, clean in a couple mins...
Yep it sure was!! My new Bosch has the same as yours. I love it!!
I can not get screw out to open the food chopper. 😢 and since you said yours was filled with gunk my OCD is fuming 😡 😂
Oh Shannie, Im so sorry, I so feel that. 😢
Maybe search for a tip on just being able to do that? I don't have our dishwasher anymore. Otherwise I would look again and see what the issue might. I wish I could be more help. ❤️🩹
that part is called a diverter
You said you guys aren't experts.
I beg to differ.
Glad you found the video helpful 😃
I cannot get my filter off😞 it's on the side
Read through some of the comments. I don’t believe that filter comes off. I know mine was not removable.
But I think someone mentioned something about it in one of the comments.
The design is poor: most of european designed dishwashers have their heater integrated into the cycling pump that receives purified water: faster heating and scale free heater (provided that the descaling device/salt work properly)
I can’t take it apart! Nor can I get the top shelf out of it.
Hi Mercedes, I'm not sure if you have the same exact dishwasher. Trying finding another video where it shows how to take it apart first.
Hi Mercedes, I just remembered that the top rack has clips on the end of it that you have to take off. It’s the only way to get the rack out. Hopefully you were able to figure that out. (I no longer have this dishwasher)
I will never buy another samsung appliance again. The gorgeous refridgerator ice cube maker never worked. The microwave latch broke off inside the door so the door wouldn't close, and the dishwasher after two years is throwing trash all over my dishes. I'm a clean and gentle person. Samsung sux.
They should've stuck with just making electronics. They have the worst appliances!
On my Samsung the water pump impeller screw is reverse threads. Our Samsung dishwasher & fridge has been absolute junk! We’ll never buy any Samsung product again & don’t recommend any.
Same here!
Very helpful! Thank you!!!!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you
