How Maytag Dishwashers Are Built
Maytag dishwashers use either a hard food disposer (a chopper needing no upkeep) or a bottom filter that is quiet but must be cleaned by hand, and some models have a triple filter with upper and lower assemblies. Source: Maytag - Dishwasher Hard Food Disposer or Filtration
Some models have a Leak Identification System that detects most leaks, stops filling, drains the tub and alerts the owner that service is needed. Source: Maytag - Dishwashers and Compactors

Local Notes for Farmington
Most dishwasher calls in Farmington 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.
Minnesota has no state license for mechanical contractors or their workers; businesses contracting for gas, heating, cooling or refrigeration work file a mechanical contractor bond with the Department of Labor and Industry, and some cities require their own licenses or competency cards.

In Minnesota, you can check a license with the DLI License and Registration Lookup or report a problem to the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, Consumer Assistance.
