Dishwasher Repair

Recently we have noticed that dished especially in the top rack are not getting clean, even after they have been rinsed prior to loading.

I open the dishwasher when it is running and it appears to be circulationg water.

What should I be checking to verify the water pressure is adequate to clean the dishes.

What steps should I take to figure out what is wrong with this dishwasher?

Is this a common issue withthe Whirlppol.

Thanks

Hello Gene…

I was hoping you could help. My Whirlpool Dishwasher GU1200XTLB3 is NOT draining the water…what could it be? What part could it be??

Thank you,

Ms. D

Ms. D,

The first thing I would do is check the air gap on top of the sink (if there is one) for a clog.

If there is no air gap then remove the drain hose from the garbage disposer, put the end of the drain hose in a bucket and run the drain cycle. Watch how it drains and post the results.
