Common Dishwasher Problems We Fix

Dishwashers see heavy daily use, and that wear adds up over time. Here are the issues we diagnose and repair most often for our San Francisco customers:

• Dishwasher not draining — Standing water at the bottom of your dishwasher after a cycle is one of the most common complaints. The culprit is usually a clogged drain hose, a faulty drain pump, or a blocked garbage disposal connection.
• Dishes not getting clean — If your dishes come out with food residue, spots, or a film, the problem could be a worn spray arm, low water temperature, a failing wash motor, or hard water buildup on internal components.
• Water leaking from the dishwasher — Leaks can originate from a damaged door gasket, a loose hose connection, a cracked tub, or a faulty water inlet valve. Even a small leak can cause significant damage to your flooring and cabinetry over time.
• Dishwasher won't start — When you press the button and nothing happens, the issue may be a faulty door latch, a blown thermal fuse, a defective control board, or a simple electrical problem.
• Loud or unusual noises — Grinding, rattling, or humming sounds during a cycle often point to a worn wash pump motor, debris in the chopper blade area, or a failing drain pump.
• Door latch not engaging — If the door does not close securely, the dishwasher will not start. Latch mechanisms wear out with repeated use and are a straightforward replacement.
• Spray arm not spinning — A blocked or cracked spray arm cannot distribute water properly, leaving dishes dirty. Food debris, mineral buildup, or a damaged bearing can all cause this.
• Detergent dispenser not opening — When the dispenser fails to release soap at the right time, your dishes do not get clean. The spring mechanism, bi-metal release, or wax motor may need replacement.

These problems tend to worsen over time, so addressing them early can save you money and prevent water damage.

We have designed our service process to be as convenient and stress-free as the working dishwasher you are about to get back.
