From reading all the previous posts on this topic I have concluded the motor is bad. (Its just humming.) I have pulled out everything down to the sump assembly. I cant figure out how to get it out. I am assuming everything comes out together.
I would bench test the motor with 115 volts to verify it’s bad. It might have cracked epoxy jamming the bearings. Pump # AP3179652
I see the 2 wires (a blue & a yellow) coming out of the motor. How do I test it? (remember I’m an amateur)
You have to get a electrical power cord strip the ends put a wire connector that will go on the motor pins , plug cord to an outlet
hold the motor and see if it works or still hums.
Sorry for the late reply, Ive been sick & my wife is mad that she still doesnt have adishwasher. I disconnected the power & left the motor in place. Then I put power to those 2 wires, & there was nothing no humming or anything. My big question is how do I get the damn motor out? I dont see anything holdng it in place, no screws or anything. Does it twist?
k of the moy
Ps. the back the motor does spin
Here is the tech sheet for this unit. Does have some dis assembly info.

You have a 7/16th bolt behind the white plastic shield that holds the motor in place.
