Dishwasher Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Dishwasher fills slowly or does not fill
  • Dishes stay wet at the end of the cycle
  • Dishwasher will not start or the lights blink
  • Water on the floor in front of the dishwasher

Why Dishwashers Break Down

Door latch and switchesA dishwasher will not start unless the door latch tells the control it is closed. Worn latches and switches are a common cause of a dishwasher that does nothing.
Water inlet valveAn electric valve under the dishwasher lets water in. When it sticks or its screen clogs, the dishwasher fills slowly, not at all, or keeps filling.
Clogged filters and drain pathsFood, labels and broken glass collect in the filter assembly and the sump. A clogged filter is behind many not-draining and not-cleaning calls, and it is the first thing a technician checks.

Inside a Dishwasher Repair Visit

Drain pumpIf water stays in the tub after a cycle, the drain pump is tested for power and blockages. Some pumps hum but cannot move water because something is caught in the impeller.
Door latch and switchesThe door latch tells the controls the door is shut. A worn latch or failed switch stops the dishwasher from starting, and it is one of the most common parts replaced.
Heating element and thermostatMany dishwashers heat water and dry dishes with an element in the bottom of the tub, controlled by a thermostat or temperature sensor. Cold, wet dishes at the end of a cycle point here.

Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher not cleaning dishes or dishwasher smells bad.

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

Before inspecting or working on a dishwasher, unplug it or switch off its circuit breaker. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher

Dishwasher Repair FAQs: Grover Beach, CA

Do you cover Grover Beach and nearby towns?
The companies on this page are within driving distance of Grover Beach. Each one sets its own service area, so check the distance shown and confirm your address when you call.
Why are my dishes still dirty after a cycle?
The usual causes are a clogged filter, blocked spray arm holes, water that is not hot enough when the cycle starts, the wrong amount of detergent, or loading that blocks the spray. If those are fine, a technician checks the inlet valve, the wash pump and the heating parts.
Can a dishwasher leak damage my floor?
A slow leak can soak the subfloor and cabinet before you see it. Turn off the water supply valve and the power to the dishwasher, wipe up the water and call a technician to find whether it is the door gasket, a hose, the pump or the tub.
Why is there standing water in my dishwasher?
The usual causes are a clogged filter, a kinked or blocked drain hose, a garbage disposal that has not been run, or a failed drain pump. Clean the filter and check the hose first. If water still sits in the tub, a technician can test the pump.
