I checked the two fan blades - the three holes on either blade (where
the water must come out) have nothing lodged there.
Thanks Jeff for the link to the lower priced part - anyway for me to
narrow down if its the cooling blade?
My conclusion on whether to repair is leaning in the opposite direction.
This is a dishwasher that is nearly 20 years old, and the part
requires a handyman installation (I've yet to find one in neighborhood).
I'm afraid if I do replace the pump/motor approx. $200-250 and it
breaks again (given its age, a possibility), I would have been better
off buying a new one.
I'm considering
Whirlpool 24-Inch Built-In Dishwasher (Color: White on White) ENERGY STARŪ
Item #: 75888
Model: DU1050XTP
Approx with installation cost is $540

Well I have checked the spray arm and found no silverware stuck
anywhere. Not sure what the impeller is though.
I found the following parts breakdown for the washing machine but
nothing listed as an impeller
The impeller is the part of the pump that goes round and round to pump the
water. Sort of think of it as the fan blades. There may be a pump to put
the water in the washer and another to pump the water out.
Something could have lodged in the pump that pumps the water out.
