What Usually Goes Wrong
What Gets Fixed on a Itasca Dishwasher Call
Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher not drying dishes or dishwasher not filling with water.
Leaks and Safe Shutoff
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
To keep dirty water from siphoning back into the dishwasher, the drain hose is run in a high loop (at least 32 inches high in GE's instructions) or through an air gap; an air gap is called for when local code requires it or when the drain connection sits less than 18 inches above the floor.
