Common Dishwasher Problems that Require Repair

You already have a suspicion that your dishwasher needs service, but it never hurts to have some certainty—not only that the issue should be repaired, but that we can perform those repairs. Here are the most common issues we get called out for:

Water: 

  • Standing water at the bottom of the dishwasher after a cycle
  • Puddles on the floor around the dishwasher
  • No sound of water being pumped in
  • Rust appearing inside tub, around the door or on exterior

Heating:

  • Dishes not hot after cycle
  • Dishes unusually wet after cycle

Mechanical/Electrical:

  • Dishwasher is not starting
  • Cycles are ending before they’re finished
  • Odd sounds are coming from the dishwasher, or more noise than usual
  • Door doesn’t latch fully
  • Racks broken

And, of course, if your dishes are consistently coming out still soiled or scummy, it’s a sure sign that your dishwasher needs either repair or maintenance, both of which we can easily handle for you.

Hometown Hero Appliance Repair has the tools and expertise to evaluate, diagnose and fix any issue with your dishwasher, so don’t hesitate to reach out to us for advice. We’ll give you a quote for repairs, and let you know whether it makes more sense to repair or replace.

Factory Authorizations for Repairs Under Warranty

To have the manufacturer of your dishwasher cover any repairs made while the appliance is under warranty, many require that you use a service company that they have authorized. These authorizations tell you two things: (1) we are experts on servicing that brand, and (2) the manufacturer knows this and trusts us with their dishwashers. We are proudly authorized to provide:

We are also trained experts at repairing dishwashers by Jenn Air, KitchenAid, Maytag, Whirlpool, Amana, Danby, Fisher and Paykel, Roper and Viking. Really, our technicians have such a deep understanding of the technology, there is no brand or model of dishwasher they can’t diagnose and fix.

The customer reported the dishwasher was beeping and not drying dishes properly. We ran a full diagnostic cycle that initially displayed error codes related to the overflow valve and drain pump. We tested the drain pump multiple times and ran the unit through complete wash and drain cycles, which all performed normally. The error codes cleared and the unit completed a full test cycle successfully. Job complete. Technician ran the unit in diagnostic mode and identified two error codes: an overflow valve error and a drain pump electrical error code. Multiple drain cycles were performed with the unit filling and draining properly each time; error codes cleared and a complete test cycle ran without defects detected.
