Why Dishwashers Break Down
Inside a Dishwasher Repair Visit
Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher not cleaning dishes or dishwasher not filling with water.
Leaks and Safe Shutoff
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
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
