Dishwasher Problems Worth a Service Call

  • Dishwasher will not start or the lights blink
  • Dishwasher fills slowly or does not fill
  • Dishes stay wet at the end of the cycle
  • Standing water in the bottom after a cycle

Why Dishwashers Break Down

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.
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.
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.

What Gets Fixed on a Westchester Dishwasher Call

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.
Drain hose and disposal connectionThe drain hose usually runs in a high loop under the counter or to an air gap, then into the disposal or sink drain. A kink, a clog or a new disposal with its knockout plug still in place stops the water.
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.

Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher smells bad or dishwasher not draining.

Leaks and Safe Shutoff

Local Notes for Westchester

Most dishwasher calls in Westchester come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.

In Illinois, you can check a license with the Illinois Department of Public Health Plumber License Search or report a problem to the Illinois Attorney General Consumer Fraud Bureau.

How to Choose a Dishwasher Technician Near Westchester

  • If the dishwasher is leaking, will you pull the kick panel to find where the water starts?
  • Is your company licensed where my state requires it, and insured?
  • Do you also handle the water supply and drain connections, or should I call a plumber for those?

Dishwasher Repair FAQs: Westchester, IL

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.
Should I repair or replace my dishwasher?
Compare the repair quote with the price of a comparable new dishwasher and consider its age. Common repairs such as inlet valves, door latches, gaskets and drain pumps are usually worth doing on a dishwasher that is otherwise in good shape. Our repair-cost guide lists published ranges.
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.
