Residential Dishwasher Repairs in Batavia, OH and Independence, KY

Your dishwasher is responsible for the simple tasks of washing and drying your dishes. However, this appliance is very complex, with many parts to check and maintain and potential problems that could arise. We’ve listed many common issues people encounter with their dishwashers. If you notice any of the following problems, be sure to call Mr. Appliance of Batavia & Independence to schedule repair services:

• Dishes aren’t clean – Running your dishwasher and finding your dishes are still dirty after it finishes can be frustrating. Your dishwasher might have issues like blocked spray armholes, a worn pump assembly or wash impeller, or a burned-out heating element.
• Cloudy glassware – If your glassware is cloudy after your dishwasher finishes running, your home may have extremely hard water. You should always rinse your dishes well before loading them into your dishwasher. If the cloudiness is still a problem, you should consider purchasing a water softener.
• Wash cycles run too long – A dishwasher running longer than it should may have trouble completing its cycle because of a malfunctioning timer or defective thermostat.
• Dishwasher hums and turns off – A humming noise coming from your dishwasher commonly indicates its motor has seized, and you should replace it.
• Water doesn’t pump out – If your dishwasher does not remove water from the inside as it should, you might have a clogged drain line, worn-out drain solenoid, or an issue with your drain impeller.
• Dishwasher does not fill with water – Trying to start your dishwasher and not having water fill in it could be because of a malfunctioning timer, stuck or defective overflow float switch, failed valve, or defective water inlet solenoid.
• Dishwasher leaks – One of the main reasons your dishwasher might leak is using too much soap or the wrong kind of soap. Double-check your dishwasher soap before using your dishwasher again. A leaky dishwasher might be due to other problems, such as problems with your tub-to-motor gaskets or spray arm assemblies, worn door gaskets, or a leaking pump or motor assembly.
