What Makes KitchenAid Dishwasher Repairs Different
KitchenAid calls for the drain hose to loop at least 20 inches above the floor, or to run through an air gap if it connects lower, so dirty water cannot siphon back into the tub. Source: KitchenAid - Checking the Drain Loop Height
What KitchenAid Says to Check First
- Dishwasher leaking. Locate where the leak starts, then check the inlet hose and valve, leveling, door gasket, door latch and that automatic dishwasher detergent is being used. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Leaks
- Dishwasher not cleaning. Start by loading dishes soiled side down without overcrowding and matching the detergent amount and cycle to the load. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Troubleshooting Guide
