Hi Folks!

I exchanged the motor/pump and the relais earlier today with new parts. After I put everything together, I started the dishwasher.
The water flows in. The machine hums but no washing at all.
The motor or pump never start to work.
I didn't attache the lower metal cover to see if anything is leaking. While I was laying there with a flashlight looking for water dripping, it smelled as if something would burn and I saw a little bit of smoke. Not sure where it came from.
The relais got changed as well.
Now the dishwasher tub is full of water again and I am back at square one.
Very frustrating.

Does anybody have an idea, what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance for your help,
Rumpelstilzchen.

Which area did the smoke come from?

Are you getting power to the motor?

Here is a link to your dishwasher model PDB3600AWE.
