Candy dishwasher wash motor leak ?

    Hi folks, just looking for advice from someone in the know.

    My slimline candy dishwasher csd 68 decided to stop working, there was a buzzing noise coming from the motor. I opened her up and tested the wash motor capacitor and it was fecked. I ordered a new one and fitted it and it's running like clockwork.

    However I did notice some water staining on the bottom of the flood tray and on investigation it looks like there is a slight drip coming from where the drive shaft enters the impeller casing

    Can this wash motor be taken a part and new seals fitted or will I have to fork out for a new wash motor ? Any advice appreciated.

    No you cant fit seals as the pump body is moulded together i have seen several with traces of staining but rarely continious leaking, the cap was its most common problem

    Thanks for the reply Red Ace. The area wasn't wet when I checked it, just some staining.
    I'm glad it was something simple like the capacitor, the motors are a horrid price. Again thanks for the reply, I'll keep an eye on it.
