My hobart dishwsher has a strange lint like fiber in the intake strainer when I clean it, what could this be caused by?

1.Loss of water pressure due to pump obstruction. Check for any obstruction at the pump intake.
2.Strainers clogged causing inadequate water supply to pump.
3.something may be inhibiting free movement of the low water float; remove any foreign object from around the low water float or its magnet.

Hi You may need to pull strainer out and clean basket better, check interior aspects of strainer housing to see if build up of any kind is blocking sensor contacts of strainer.

Possible:
1. Dirty line strainer, causing low water pressure/flow. Turn off the water supply to the dishwaher, open the strainer cap, and clean the screen.
2. Low water pressure
3. Excessive Lime or mineral deposits in the wash/rinse system. You may need to delime the system.
4. Water temperature is below 110 degrees.
5. If equipped with a booster (heater), and more than 8 minutes pass with the water temp still below 110 degrees. Heater may be bad.

best is a microfiber towel which you can buy in many shops and can also be cut in small pieces.

• microfibers lift dust and oils from delicate surfaces without the use of chemicals
• Ideal for eyeglass lenses, camera lenses, displays, binoculars, microscopes and other delicate surfaces
• Non-scratching, non-linting
• Dirt and particles are trapped within knitted tufts of the fibers
• Ribbon-shaped fibers lift dirt and grease instead of rolling over it

The best solution I can give you is to become a member at the Hobart Corp. website and use there schematics to find where the pin goes. It is free to use the parts catologues have a parts blowup.

Thank you for using FixYa, I hope this helps.

Unless you have a special purpose sink all basket strainers are standard size. You should be able to use strainer from any manufacturer that has the color that you want. If you are doing this yourself make sure you use rubber gasket and fiber friction ring. These go on the underside of sink in between sink bottom and retaing nut. I would recommend you use a small amount of pure silicone caulking in between flange of strainer and sink surface. Be ready to wipe off excess caulking as soon as you get retaing nut snug as it starts to cure in about ten mins. I use paper towels and wipe till its clean. Hope this helps. Thanks

They are mainly for removing seeds from fruits and vegetables.

Try cleaning your strainer. It is located behind the kick panel below the front main panel. It is connected to the drum with a rubber hose, and attached to the pump. Pull the strainer cover and remove the strainer. While the strainer is open, look up into the pump cavity for any other loose debris, and remove it.

I had the same problem.....The start/pause button would flash during a cycle and the washer would not finish the cycle. After reading on this forum that there is a filter/strainer inline with the drain, I tried this solution.
Remove the (3) screws that hold the lower front panel (Just below the door)
Once the panel is removed, you should see a white plastic strainer hooked to the washer drain.

Please a large bowl under the opening and unscrew the knob/handle, pull the filter/strainer out and clean all of the lint/trash out of this area.

My filter/strainer was clogged with a baby sock, 2 doilies, a fewe pennies, 2 dimes and lot's of lint.
I believe all of this debris was causing musty odors in the machine as the lint would stink due to dampness.

Once I cleared out this filter/strainer the problem and my odors went away
I wish GE would add this "EASY" step into the owners manual for proper care and maintenace.

Thank you for letting me know about this filter/strainer as it did resolve my problem
