Common Dishwasher Problems We Fix
When you call GRIT Appliance Repair or schedule service online, our live agents will match you with the right service professional to get your dishwasher fixed as soon as possible. Problems we address include:
- ✓The dishwasher isn't cleaning dishes well: A blocked spray arm, worn pump assembly, wash impeller problem, or burned-out heating element can all cause the dishwasher to not clean dishes effectively.
- ✓The dishwasher hums and then turns off: If the motor is seized and needs to be replaced, your dishwasher may stop mid-cycle.
- ✓The dishwasher wash cycle takes too long: A defective thermostat, timer, or control board can lead to longer wash cycles.
- ✓The dishwasher does not fill with water: An issue with the float switch can prevent your dishwasher from filling with water.
- ✓The dishwasher is not draining: An issue with the drain, filter, or air gap can cause drainage issues. When left unchecked, this can create the perfect environment for mold or cause the dishwasher to smell bad.
- ✓The dishwasher is leaking water: Problems with the gasket, drain, water line, or other components can make the dishwasher leak.
- ✓The dishwasher rack has rust: Older dishwasher racks might rust and need to be replaced.

Our Dishwasher Repair Process
The service professionals at GRIT Appliance Repair will quickly examine and diagnose your dishwasher issue by:
- ✓Checking for clogs: The filter, drain hose, or garbage disposal may be clogged, preventing the dishwasher from draining properly.
- ✓Examining the door latch: If the door is not latching properly, the dishwasher likely will not start.
- ✓Testing the water supply: The service professional will verify the water inlet valve operation and check for adequate water pressure.
- ✓Inspecting the drain pump: They'll examine the drain pump for obstructions and verify that the pump motor is functioning correctly.
- ✓Evaluating the control panel: Damaged buttons, unresponsive controls, or error codes can cause the control panel to malfunction.
- ✓Checking the heating element: A malfunctioning heating element will cause dishes to dry improperly, leaving detergent residue and potential smells in the dishwasher. The service professional will check that it's receiving power and for any visible signs of damage.
