The Usual Dishwasher Culprits in Hobart
What Gets Fixed on a Hobart Dishwasher Call
Troubleshooting first? Start with dishwasher not filling with water or dishwasher not drying dishes.
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
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
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.
