Dishwasher problems we fix every day

Dishwasher not draining

A clogged filter, a blocked drain pump, or food debris in the check valve are the usual causes; Bosch units flag this as an E24 or E25 error. If a new garbage disposal was recently installed, an unpunched knockout plug in the disposal inlet is a classic culprit. Drain repairs typically run $120 to $250.

Dishwasher not cleaning dishes properly

Worn wash pumps, clogged spray arms, and a failed chopper or filter assembly top the list, and in hard-water areas mineral scale plugs the spray arm jets over time. We also check the water inlet valve, since a slow fill quietly ruins wash performance. Most cleaning-performance repairs land between $150 and $350.

Dishwasher leaking from the bottom of the door

A worn door gasket, a cracked detergent dispenser, or a misaligned door catch lets water past the seal; leaks from under the unit instead point to the sump seal, pump seals, or a split fill hose. Samsung and LG models will throw an LC or AE code when the base pan sensor gets wet. Catching a leak early protects the cabinet and flooring around it.

Dishwasher won't start or has no power

Failed door latch assemblies are the most common cause, since the machine refuses to run unless the latch confirms the door is shut. Blown thermal fuses, failed touchpads, and control boards come next; Whirlpool and KitchenAid boards have known relay failures. Latch and fuse repairs are quick, usually $120 to $230.

Dishwasher not filling with water

The water inlet valve is the usual failure, either stuck shut or choked with scale, with the float switch and door latch next in line. It's a routine repair around $130 to $250, and we verify the supply valve under the sink and the fill line before condemning any part.

Dishwasher not drying dishes

A failed heating element, vent fan, or rinse-aid dispenser is typical on American brands, while Bosch condensation-dry models depend entirely on rinse aid and a hot final rinse rather than an element. Plastic items never dry as well as glass or ceramic on any brand, so we sort real failures from normal behavior before quoting.

Dishwasher making loud grinding or humming noises

Grinding usually means glass shards or a fruit pit in the chopper or drain pump; a steady hum with no water movement points to a seized circulation pump or a failed pump capacitor on Miele units. Clearing debris is inexpensive, while a circulation pump replacement typically runs $250 to $450.

Dishwasher smells bad

Trapped food in the filter and sump, greasy buildup in the spray arms, and standing water from a partial drain clog are the usual sources, made worse in humid climates. We clean the filter assembly and sump, verify the drain loop is routed high to stop backflow from the sink, and set you up with a monthly maintenance rinse.

Repair or replace your dishwasher?

A dishwasher under 8 years old is usually worth repairing: drain pumps, inlet valves, latches, gaskets, and spray arms run $120 to $350 fixed, against $600 to $1,200 for a comparable new unit plus installation. Premium machines like Bosch, Miele, and KitchenAid justify repair even further into their lifespan because the tubs and racks outlast the pumps around them. Replacement is the smarter call when a unit past 9 or 10 years needs a circulation pump or control board north of $350, or when the tub itself is cracked or rusted through.

Dishwasher repair FAQ

How much does a typical dishwasher repair cost?

Most dishwasher repairs land between $120 and $300 installed; drain pumps, inlet valves, latches, and gaskets all sit in that band. The expensive outliers are circulation pumps and control boards at $250 to $450, which is where the repair-versus-replace conversation starts on older units.

How long does a dishwasher repair take?

Most jobs take 45 to 90 minutes, including pulling the unit from the cabinet when the repair requires it. Our trucks stock drain pumps, valves, and latches for Bosch, Whirlpool, KitchenAid, GE, Samsung, and LG, so most dishwasher calls are finished in one visit.

Is it worth repairing an 8-year-old dishwasher?

For a pump, valve, latch, or seal, yes: those repairs cost a quarter of a new machine. On a premium brand like Bosch or Miele it's worth it even later, since the tub and racks have plenty of life left. An 8-year-old budget unit needing a circulation pump is where we'd talk replacement.

My dishwasher won't drain. Is there anything I can check first?

Yes. Pull the bottom rack, remove the cylindrical filter in the tub floor, and clear any food debris; on Bosch units also pop the pump cover behind it and check for glass. If you have a garbage disposal, run it, since a full disposal blocks the dishwasher's drain path. If it still won't drain, the pump or check valve has failed.

What brands of dishwasher do you repair?

All major brands: Bosch, KitchenAid, Whirlpool, GE, Samsung, LG, Miele, Frigidaire, Kenmore, and more. That includes panel-ready integrated models and drawer dishwashers, which need a technician familiar with the cabinet-mounted hardware.

What does the E24 error on my Bosch dishwasher mean?

E24 (and E25) is Bosch's drain error. It's usually a dirty filter, debris under the drain pump cover, or a stuck check valve rather than a dead pump, so it's one of the cheaper Bosch repairs. If the code returns after a cleaning, the pump or its impeller is worn and needs replacement.
