When to Call for dishwasher repairs

Is your dishwasher leaking and slowly causing water damage in your kitchen?

Damaged Dishwasher Setbacks

For many Canadian families, their dishwasher is an invaluable appliance in their home. Not only does it significantly reduce the time it takes to wash dishes for an entire family, but it’s often a more sustainable way of washing your dishes. In fact, it is estimated that hand-washing your dishes uses as much as 5 times the amount of water as an efficient dishwasher and 3.5 times the amount of water as an average dishwasher. Over the course of a year, this can have a significant impact on your water consumption.

For anyone who uses a dishwasher daily, you can imagine the impact that a broken dishwasher would have on your daily routine. The frustration that comes from opening your dishwasher after a wash cycle — only to find all of your dishes still caked with food debris and sauce remnants — is enough to put anyone in a bad mood. This is unsanitary, as it can lead to bacterial growth on your dishes and in your dishwasher itself, and still requires you to wash the dishes by hand.

The interruption to your regular lifestyle caused by having to hand-wash your dishes can certainly add stress to your day and take time away from other vital tasks such as working or spending time with your family. Fortunately, this chaos is largely avoidable — call one of our dishwasher technicians in Toronto, and we’ll handle the rest.

Dishwasher Repair FAQs

Your dishwasher won’t start, what to do now? That can be a big hassle, especially when you have a pile of dishes waiting to be cleaned. Take a look at some possibilities for the cause of this issue:

Door Switch or Latch

The door switch and latch may prevent the dishwasher from running while the door is closed if they are defective.

Thermal Fuse

The thermal fuse shuts off power to the dishwasher if it overheats. If the thermal fuse blows, it will prevent the dishwasher from starting.

Main Control Board

The main control board provides power to nearly every component of the dishwasher. If there is a problem with the main control board, it might not send voltage to the dishwasher, causing the dishwasher not to start.

Timer

The timer allows power to flow to the proper parts at the proper times. If the timer isn’t working properly, it might not send voltage to the dishwasher, causing it not to start.

Take a look at the most common causes for dishes coming out dirty from your dishwasher:

Water Inlet Valve

The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the dishwasher. If the valve is clogged or defective, the dishwasher won’t get enough water to clean dishes properly.

Wash Arm

There are different wash arms in the dishwasher that circulate water to the dishes. If water can’t flow properly through the wash arm due to a clog or faulty parts, the dishes won’t be cleaned properly.

Circulation Pump

The circulation pump uses a motor and impeller to force water up through the wash arms. If the circulation pump is defective, the dishes won’t be cleaned properly.

The most common reasons for a dishwasher that won’t drain are clogged or damaged drain hose, valve or pump. Moreover, some dishwashers use air gaps to prevent dirty water from backing up and contaminating your dishes. If one gets clogged, it can impact the appliance’s ability to drain.

If you start your cycle and the dishwasher won’t fill with water, it is most likely because of the Water Inlet Valve. the water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the dishwasher. If the water valve is clogged or defective, water will not flow into the dishwasher. Over time, calcium deposits can build up in the water supply valve or in the small filter screen inside the water inlet valve. The water pressure to the valve also needs to be checked.

If the buttons don’t work, confirm that the dishwasher display is working. If the display is still working, try pressing some of the touchpad buttons. If some of the buttons respond correctly but others don’t, it is likely that the touchpad is at fault.If the dishwasher display is working butsome of the buttons don’t respond correctly, the touchpad and control panel might need to be replaced. Lastly, the main control board will be checked. If there is a problem with the main control board, it might not send voltage to the dishwasher touchpad, causing the touchpad buttons not to work.

If there is a leak from your dishwasher, there are several reasons that might cause this to happen:

Water Inlet Valve

The water inlet valve opens to allow water to enter the dishwasher. If the water inlet valve is stuck open, the dishwasher will continue to fill with water until the dishwasher leaks or overflows.

Center Wash Arm Assembly

If the wash arm is cracked, it can allow a jet of water to spray toward the door seal, causing a leak. Remove the wash arm and inspect it for cracks. If the wash arm is cracked, replace it. Do not attempt to seal the crack with glue—the glue will break down in the dishwasher.
