Water, Power and Safety First
A leak from the water supply line tends to show up as dampness under the front of the unit; leaks at the door often trace back to a dirty, loose or damaged gasket, a bent or loose latch, or a unit that is not level. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher

What Mena Owners Should Know
Most dishwasher calls in Mena come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
Arkansas has no separate appliance repair license, and household appliances are listed as exempt equipment under the state HVACR licensing law, though exempt work must still meet HVACR rules and any local permit and inspection requirements.

In Arkansas, you can check a license with the Arkansas Department of Health Protective Health Codes licensee search (plumbing and gas fitter licenses) or report a problem to the Arkansas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
