Hello,
I'm not experienced with appliance repair, but I've see great advice on here so thought it worth a shot. My dishwasher displayed an LE error. I tried restarting it twice and noticed it made some odd noises followed by a burning smell. I google searched the issue and found it was either an electrical issue, the motor or the PCB.
Times being what they are, I figured I'd at least attempt to fix it instead of buying a new dishwasher. I began taking it apart and discovered a burned out connection on the circulation motor (or sump assembly? I'm not actually sure what the difference is).
I've attached a couple pictures and apologize for poor quality. From what I can tell, there appears to be nothing wrong visually with the PCB. The electrical wiring in the door panel also appears fine. I'm considering buying a new circulation motor and replacing that but struggling with ensuring I'm ordering the right part.
This is what I'm assuming I need:

I also can't decide if the repair is worth attempting at this price or if I'm better off just getting a new dishwasher. I also will need to replace the connector and have not been able to find it online. Any help or advice is greatly appreciated.
