What Makes Electrolux Dishwasher Repairs Different

What Electrolux Says to Check First
- Dishwasher odor. Electrolux says to run a rinse-only cycle if the dishwasher won't be run soon and to make sure it is draining properly. Source: Electrolux - Why does my dishwasher have an odor and how do I fix it?
- Dishwasher leaking. Electrolux says to check first that the drain hose is installed correctly and unblocked and that the door closes fully, since the kick plate can keep it from shutting. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher - Water Leaking

Local Notes for Fairfield
Most dishwasher calls in Fairfield 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.
Iowa does not issue a general appliance repair technician license; the Plumbing and Mechanical Systems Board licenses plumbing, HVAC, refrigeration and hydronic work, and state law carves out a special restricted license only for utility employees who repair appliances.

In Iowa, you can check a license with the Iowa DIAL Find a Record or License (Plumbing & Mechanical Systems Board public search) or report a problem to the Iowa Attorney General Consumer Protection Division.
