Effective services for common Whirlpool dishwasher repair issues

Don't delay Whirlpool dishwasher maintenance. Our Whirlpool dishwasher repair experts at Sears Home Services will work quickly to diagnose your dishwasher issue, recommend options for maintenance, troubleshoot common issues, and make repairs fast. Routine maintenance helps prevent serious water damage caused by dishwashers, and can save homeowners a lot of money. A well-maintained appliance also offers peace of mind, especially as an appliance gets older.

Dishwasher not draining

Food and sentiment clogs in the filter and backup in the garbage disposal can lead to issues with the drain hose or drain pump, or create an air gap. The knowledgeable teams at Sears Home Services can help find the blockage and clear any debris.

Dishes not getting clean in dishwasher

If it seems like your dishes aren't getting as clean as they used to, it's probably time to do a deep clean to cleanse the interior and unclog the jets.

Some homeowners can start by running the Whirlpool dishwasher with a cup of white vinegar inside to loosen the debris as it steams and circulates. If it doesn't help improve the cleanliness of the dishes, the experts at Sears Home Services can take a closer look at the jets and waterways.

Dishwasher leaking

Any dishwasher can experience leaks. Whirlpool dishwashers may, over time, develop issues around the seals and connections, or from any pipes leading to or from the back of the unit.

A leaking dishwasher can lead to flooding that damages cabinetry, drywall, and flooring. If you suspect that your Whirlpool dishwasher needs maintenance, turn off the water to the appliance, and avoid running it until you have it serviced.

Dishwasher Doesn't Start

If you have trouble starting your dishwasher, it may just need a hard reset. If you follow the owner's manual, you may be able to locate and press the reset button yourself. The Whirlpool directions may also recommend that you unplug your appliance for a short period of time. When in doubt, call the experts at Sears Home Services to schedule Whirlpool dishwasher service.

Preventative Dishwasher Maintenance

Homeowners who schedule regular appliance service can ensure that their Whirlpool dishwasher will work effectively and efficiently over time. Routine Whirlpool dishwasher maintenance can also prevent homeowners from costly, unexpected repair needs.

Whirlpool dishwasher repair FAQ

What is the average cost of Whirlpool dishwasher repair?

Whirlpool dishwasher repairs can cost a little, or a lot. It often depends on if you need your appliance reset with the push of a button, or need a whole new motor installed.

Is it worth it to repair a Whirlpool dishwasher?

Many Whirlpool dishwashers will benefit from routine maintenance, making it more likely that they will last for a long time. Issues that seem major may be easily fixed with a simple service call. Many repair jobs only require a new hose or seal, and any appliance fixed saves space in the landfill. Ongoing maintenance can save homeowners money, too. Be sure to schedule routine check-ups so that our appliance repair technicians can help catch problems before they cause bigger issues.

What is the lifespan of a Whirlpool dishwasher?

Many Whirlpool dishwashers last 10 years depending on how often it's used, sometimes longer with proper maintenance. Over the life of your dishwasher, it's likely that you'll have to perform some level of maintenance to replace the seals and water lines. Deep cleanings may also need to be performed to resolve clogs. Overall, most appliances can last a long time with proper upkeep.

How do you diagnose Whirlpool dishwasher problems?

Diagnosing issues with a Whirlpool dishwasher starts with identifying any visual and audible changes in your appliance. Visible water leaks, unusual sounds, and dishes that don't actually get clean after a full cycle may be your first sign.

A repairman from Sears Home Services will disconnect the dishwasher and pull it out of the cabinetry in order to thoroughly inspect and diagnose the appliance.

What is the most common problem with Whirlpool dishwashers?

Whirlpool dishwashers often face the same common issues as other major brands. Issues may include water supply line breakdown, drainage clogs, and standing water in the bottom of the appliance. Some homeowners begin to notice changes when their dishes don't get thoroughly cleaned. Our experts can help identify these issues and service your appliance so it lasts longer.
