Hi,

I have a Kenmore Elite Dishwasher, which is just over a year old. It has started making a grinding noise and continues to get louder with each use. It is the ultra quiet model, but it is anything but quiet now. Any suggestions?

Thanks

Sounds like the "CHOPPER ASSEMBLY". (in the pump assembly)
Pull it apart and take a look.
Go to sears.com and put in your model number, you can "View Diagram" to get a look at your assembly and find part numbers and prices from the parts list.

Otherwise the pump/motor may be going bad.
