Don't know. Ask the Appliance Samurai:

http://fixitnow.com/wp/2006/07/04/ge-dishwasher-drainology/

He says "Some newer GE dishwashers have a separate drain pump and motor; the older models, however, used a drain solenoid valve (item 1 in the above thumbnail). If this solenoid fails, the dishwasher won’t drain, plain and simple. If the solenoid cannot pull in the silver plunger, the drain port will not open to allow the motor and pump assembly to drain the water out. Use your ohm meter to test the continuity of the solenoid coil. You should also test to see if it’s receiving 120vac when the dishwasher is supposed to be draining.

Thanks for the links! They were right, two seperate motors. Everything seems to be working for now. Some prices I got from a site: New pump 122.00, new impeller kit for same 23.00, new circuit boards 88.00. Didn't price the drain motor.

Brings to mind THE single most necessary Kitchen Appliance

Fire Extinguisher.

I never cease to be amazed at how few homes have them!

Scenario ,where I live:
Smoke/Fire/Co2 Alarm goes off...Grab extinguisher,whilst dialing 911...
Screaming,
"Out,Out,Out,Everybody OUT.Fire,Fire,Fire."
