Know Your Amana Dishwasher
What Makes Amana Dishwasher Repairs Different
Some Amana dishwashers instead use a maintenance-free filter style with a foreign object cup that is emptied when it fills. Source: Amana - Filter is Dirty - Dishwasher
Amana's triple filter system uses a removable upper filter assembly that protects the pump and a lower filter that keeps food from recirculating, and both need periodic hand cleaning. Source: Amana - How to Clean the Dishwasher Filters
What Amana Says to Check First
- Dishwasher odor. Amana says to pull and rinse the drain filter first, then run a cleaner in an empty hot cycle and make sure the drain and disposer are clear. Source: Amana - Removing Odors in your Dishwasher
- Dishwasher leaking. Amana says to inspect the door gasket for cracks, tears, or food buildup and make sure nothing keeps the door from closing fully. Source: Amana - Dishwasher Leaking Troubleshooting Guide
