Dishwasher Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Standing water in the bottom after a cycle
  • Bad smell from the tub between loads
  • Dishwasher will not start or the lights blink
  • Dishes stay wet at the end of the cycle

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.
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.
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.

What a Dishwasher Repair Technician Checks

Filter and sumpMost dishwashers have a filter assembly at the bottom of the tub that catches food and debris. A technician pulls it, cleans the sump beneath it and checks for glass or bones before replacing any parts, because a clog can make a healthy pump look broken.
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.

Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher not draining or dishwasher not filling with water.

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

Built-in dishwashers are typically specified for their own properly grounded 120-volt branch circuit protected by a 15- or 20-amp breaker or time-delay fuse, with no extension cords or adapter plugs. Source: GE Appliances - Built-In Dishwasher Installation Instructions

Dishwasher Repair FAQs: Bensenville, IL

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.
What does a dishwasher repair usually cost?
Most companies charge a service call or diagnostic fee that is often applied to the repair if you go ahead. Common jobs such as an inlet valve, door gasket or drain pump are usually worth fixing on a dishwasher that is otherwise sound. Our dishwasher repair cost guide lists published ranges.
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.
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.
