Dishwasher Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Water on the floor in front of the dishwasher
  • Grinding, humming or buzzing during the cycle
  • Dishwasher fills slowly or does not fill
  • Dishwasher will not start or the lights blink

What Usually Goes Wrong

Heating and drying partsMany dishwashers heat water with an element in the tub and use heat, a fan or condensation to dry. A failed element or thermostat leaves dishes cold and wet.
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.
Drain pump and drain hoseThe drain pump pushes water out through a hose that loops up under the counter. A failed pump, a kinked hose or a blocked disposal connection leaves water in the tub.

Inside a Dishwasher Repair Visit

Controls and sensorsElectronic dishwashers rely on a control board, a turbidity or soil sensor on many models, and temperature sensors. Error codes and blinking lights help narrow the diagnosis before parts are ordered.
Door gasket and tub sealsLeaks under the door usually come from a hardened or torn gasket, a cracked tub, a loose hose clamp or a pump seal. A technician removes the kick panel to see where the water starts.
Float and overfill protectionA float rises with the water level and trips a switch to stop the fill. A stuck float can stop the dishwasher from filling at all or let water run too long.

Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher smells bad or dishwasher not filling with water.

If Your Dishwasher Is Leaking

Hand soap, dish soap or laundry detergent can make a dishwasher over-suds and spill water onto the floor; use only automatic dishwasher detergent. Source: Whirlpool - How to Fix a Leaking Dishwasher

A dishwasher must be grounded; if the home wiring lacks a ground or the plug does not fit the outlet, a licensed electrician should correct it rather than modifying the plug. Source: Whirlpool - Dishwasher User Instructions

What La Habra Owners Should Know

Hiring a Dishwasher Repair Company in La Habra

Dishwasher Repair FAQs: La Habra, CA

Which areas near La Habra do these technicians cover?
The companies on this page are within driving distance of La Habra. Each one sets its own service area, so check the distance shown and confirm your address when you call.
What should I check before calling?
Make sure the breaker is on and the door latches fully, clean the filter, and confirm the water supply valve under the sink is open. If the dishwasher is leaking, shut off the water supply and power before doing anything else.
What makes a dishwasher stop cleaning?
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.
Why does my dishwasher smell?
Food trapped in the filter and sump is the usual source, along with a drain hose that lets water back in. Clean the filter, check that the drain hose has a high loop or air gap, and run an empty hot cycle with a dishwasher cleaner.
