Dishwasher keeps filling with water

If the water flow to the dishwasher and doesn’t automatically shut off or you find a pool of clean water (sometimes). This is due to a faulty dishwasher water inlet valve (stuck open).
​

Close the hot water supply valve, normally located under the sink. Close it all the way by turning it clockwise.

Dishwasher Repair Service Tips

Clean the inside of your dishwasher. Make it a habit to look inside and see if you have a dirty dishwasher. Once a month isn’t too much to ask, right?
​
Remove the coarse filter and clear any chunks of old food, broken glass, plastic bag, toothpick, popsicle sticks, toys, you name it!

Dishwasher not draining

A dishwasher will not drain properly if it has a restricted or clogged drain hose. Restrictions typically appear most often at the outlet from the pump or drain housing where a check valve may be located. 

If the drain hose from the dishwasher has developed a kink, it should be replaced; or if dirty water spews from the air gap, the drain line is kinked or clogged.

If you’ve recently installed a garbage disposer, be sure the knockout plug for the dishwasher was removed when the connection was made; see your disposer instructions.

Circulation Pump Symptoms

A defective pump could be the reason your dishwasher is making loud noises or not cleaning dishes properly. The function of the pump is to pressurize the spray arms and in most models it is also used to drain the water. The pump sits at the bottom of the dishwasher and typically consists of two separate compartments; one for wash or circulation and the other for drain. The circulation part of the pump will typically consist of the wash impeller and the filter components while the drain portion will consist of a drain impeller and a chopper blade, or in some cases, a solenoid operated diverter.
The problem with your dishwasher can be difficult to pinpoint without a clear indication of a specific defective component. Call us today for a same-day examination!
