Amana Dishwasher Series Technicians Work On
What a Amana Dishwasher Technician Deals With
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
Drying relies on a heated dry option, and a working element leaves the tub warm and steamy when the door is opened after the cycle. Source: Amana - Dishes Not Drying: Quick Fix Guide
What Amana Says to Check First
- 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
- Dishwasher not starting. Amana says to confirm the unit has power and, on hardwired installs, that the breaker hasn't tripped, and to check whether control lock is on. Source: Amana - Dishwasher Not Starting or Not Operating
