What a KitchenAid Dishwasher Technician Deals With

What KitchenAid Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not draining. KitchenAid says to clean food buildup out of the filter first, and on a newly installed unit to confirm the garbage disposer knockout plug was removed. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Troubleshooting Guide
