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
The drain hose must rise in a loop at least 20 inches above the floor, and Amana recommends an air gap when the connection sits lower. Source: Amana - Checking the Drain Loop Height
What Amana Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not draining. Amana says to cut power and water, remove standing water, clean the filters and sump, then check the drain hose for kinks, a missing high loop, a clogged air gap, or an unremoved disposer knockout plug. Source: Amana - Dishwasher Not Draining
- Dishwasher not filling. Amana says to make sure the water supply valve is open, the overflow float moves freely, and the drain loop is high enough to prevent siphoning. Source: Amana - Why Your Dishwasher Isn't Working
