Top 20 Maytag 24 in. MDB5600A Jetclean II Built-in Dishwasher Questions & Answers

Hi maybe the machine did not properly empty out all the water there could be a blockage in the waste outlet pipe to check this blow down the pipe to see if its clear you'll need a little puff to do this if you cant get air through the pipe then there is a possibility that there is, or the waste water pump itself is not working clearing the water fully this will cause the machine to strike, if there is nothing stopping the water to expel, then the pump has either died or is blocked replace if necessary hope that helps a little eric

More than likely you need to replace the washer control panel.

I just wanted to post because I got a used Maytag from a friend and its panel wouldn't work. There is a reset button on the underneath of the dishwasher next to the power supply on a white plastic thing. I pressed it and it washes now. it puts it at a factory mode so now I need to the panel code but at least it washes.

It can bequite common for a dishwasher to not drain because either the drain hose or theair gap (if the unit has one) is clogged up. Drain hose clogs commonly occurwhere the hose is attached to the main household drain line, or where the hoseconnects with the garbage disposer. Turn mainswater off and disconnect mains power Tryremoving the drain hose to unclog any debris. Don't forget to reattach the hosebefore you start your dishwasher again.The drainpump is blocked or restricted by debrisPossibly something stuck/jammed in the wash or drainpropeller, remove filter mesh at the bottom of the dishwasher. Carefully remove any excess water and debris jammed near the propeller caution there may be glassor debris near or where the water drains-out.Removeand clean the spray arms, they may have food debris jammed, rinse in hotrunning waterMaintainerWash Runa wash with a tablespoon of powder, without any dishes on the hottest settinge.g. intensive, 65C, if you have a 70C this will be more effective.

1) Test the switch door for open or defective, this switch is the key for to operate the main motor, start the main relay for turn on the motor. see the schematic attached.God bless you

Heat dry will consume steam which is generated by heating the water inside the dishwasher. Air dry is natural but will take longer cycle time. Use rinse aid to improve air dryer and aviod water spots on glass.

It could either be your float sensing that you have enough water to operate the unit - http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-number/Maytag-Parts/Dishwasher-Parts/99002628/0026/464/Model-MDB5600AWB/3048/0130000?keySuffixId=NA&productTypeId=0130000&searchModelNumber=MDB5600AWB&subCompDesc=Tub&brandDesc=MAYTAG&modelDesc=MAYTAG-DISHWASHER&blt=11

Or the water inlet valve - http://www.searspartsdirect.com/partsdirect/part-number/Maytag-Parts/Dishwasher-Parts/6-920534/0022/665/Model-MDB5600AWB/3048/0130000?keySuffixId=NA&productTypeId=0130000&searchModelNumber=MDB5600AWB&subCompDesc=Tub&brandDesc=MAYTAG&modelDesc=MAYTAG-DISHWASHER&blt=11

If the motor is operating without water, then I would first check out the float and make sure that something has not gotten under it, making the machine think that it had water, when it doesn't.

Not really, except making sure that the base if the inside of the machine is clean and that the inlet to the pump is clear and that all the water is pumped out after each cycle. Also make sure that the jets at the trailing edges of the rotating arms are clear of any blockage. To extend the life of you machine and avoid unnecessary work, ensure that there are no food remnants or particles on dishes and pots before placing them into the washer. Investigate any unusual noises that you may hear, this will prevent major repairs at a later stage.

Hi, W/D here.

They all have adjustable feet that can adjust the height up by about 2", or so. Check your manual.
The rear feet have a linkage to the front of the machine.

Best regards, --W/D--

This caused by a burnt out central control circuit board (CCU), this board is part of the touch pad that you press to start the washing cycle and select other functions
