A KitchenAid dishwasher in North Canton wouldn’t drain, leaving standing water in the bottom after every cycle. We found the drain line under the dishwasher had an obstruction that was preventing proper water flow.
The Problem
The customer reported their dishwasher won’t drain. Water was remaining in the bottom of the tub after wash cycles completed.
Diagnosis
The drain line under the dishwasher had an obstruction. This blockage prevented the dishwasher from pumping water out during the drain cycle.
The Repair
- Parts replaced: Plumbing-MISC
- Work performed: Cleared the obstruction from the drain line
- Result: After clearing the obstruction, the dishwasher operates correctly
Is It Worth Repairing?
KitchenAid dishwashers are built for longevity and this model represents solid mid-range quality. A drain line obstruction is a relatively minor issue that doesn’t indicate broader mechanical problems with the unit itself.
Maintenance Tips for KitchenAid Dishwashers
- Clean the bottom filter monthly by unscrewing it and rinsing under hot water
- Run hot water at your kitchen sink before starting the dishwasher to ensure proper wash temperatures
- Use rinse aid to prevent water spots and help with proper drainage
