Dishwasher Problems Worth a Service Call

  • An error code on the display
  • Dishwasher will not start or the lights blink
  • Detergent left in the dispenser after the cycle
  • Standing water in the bottom after a cycle

The Usual Dishwasher Culprits in Lake Elsinore

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.
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.
Seals and hosesDoor gaskets harden, tub seals wear and hose clamps loosen. Leaks usually start small, under the door or behind the kick panel, before they show on the floor.

What Gets Fixed on a Lake Elsinore Dishwasher Call

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.
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.
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.

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

If Your Dishwasher Is Leaking

Shut off the dishwasher's water supply during repairs or whenever it is leaking; the valve is usually under the kitchen sink on the branch line that runs to the dishwasher, and it closes by turning clockwise. Source: GE Appliances - Dishwasher Water Shut-Off Location

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

What Lake Elsinore Owners Should Know

Dishwasher Repair FAQs: Lake Elsinore, CA

Why won't my dishwasher dry?
Many newer dishwashers dry by condensation and need rinse aid to dry well, especially plastics. If dishes stay soaked on a model that uses a heating element or fan, the element, thermostat or fan may have failed.
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.
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.
Why won't my dishwasher drain?
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.
