Top 20 Jenn-Air JDB6510 Built-in Dishwasher Questions & Answers

Sounds like a noisy circulation pump motor. As an Engineer, I would treat any abnormal noise seriously; the motor may require examination and possibly a new start capacitor fitting? or it may be loose or have a problem with its impeller, etc. Or it could possibly be a relay for the heating element is noisy. Either way, abnormal noises are unusual, and dishwashers need to be 100% reliable as they are often used unattended or overnight and any problem might indicate a possible fire risk. Sorry to be so heavy - is the machine subject to any guarantees or extended insurance etc? Some have 5 year guarantees. Whatever, I would call an engineer out to have it checked over.

Some dishwashers will now wait before draining final rinse water. This helps the dishes dry. Instead of draining the hot water it will save it for a short time to dry dishes. Wait 20 minutes it should drain after that.

looks like it's already olde device, that have lot of residues everywhere, so correct water flow is not achieved.... it's problem of all older dishwashers.... ask technician about price, if it's cheap let him repair it.... but sure later something else will come up.... or buy new one, sometimes it's cheaper, than to repair it....

Hello

A vibrating noise indicates that your Bosch dishwasher is not level. Adjust the leveling legs until the dishwasher is level. Use a carpenter's level to assist you with this process. If the floor is uneven or unstable, fix the flooring. Or, place wood shims or a 3/4 inch piece of plywood under the dishwasher.


The motor has a plastic disc connected to it, which can break off if it wears out. You must replace the whole motor since this component is difficult to fix. Check the motor bearings, which can make noise if they get wet. If the bearings are wet, your tub seal is compromised. Pry it out with a crowbar, and install a new one. A squealing noise usually indicates that the heater fan is warped or rusted. Order a new one since you can't usually repair this part.

Hi

First make sure that nothing is blocking the drain pump assembly located inside the lower front panel of the dishwasher. If the issue returns after its cleaned then try to reset the dishwasher control by pressing the HEATED DRY button and hold it for 15 seconds, if its still not resolved then it means that the control board has gone bad and should be replaced. Hope this helps...please post back for further assistance.

You might have something in the drain pump. To check you need to pull it out from the counter and remove the hoses from the pump to see. First turn off power to it, and make sure you have enough slack in the water line to pull out

This may or may not help, but is worth a try.
Ok so your dishwasher won't do anything... it justs sits there and "Hums" you can't make it respond to any controls, and the ONLY way to Stop it. is to unplug the unit, replugging back in it simply "Hums" again and will do nothing.
Now this happens because, the STOP Button, is pressed and the "Door Opened", during the Wash Cycle.This should NOT be done. You should NEVER TURN IT OFF MID-CYCLE. you should instead, Simply, pull on the handle, to Open the door, the system will take care of everything, after, you close it,and pick up where it left off. The turning OFF, makes the machine "Think" that a New Cycle, is going to be done, before the old one is finished, and resets itself to do it all again. But it still has water, that's not meant to be there so it must dump it out.
Now, the FIX. Take the Dishwasher, out, and tip over on it's side, tip to about a 45' angle. Water will come out from underneath, this is from a small "Overflow" reservoir. this reservoir has an "Anti-Flood" switch. The removing of this water will "Reset" this Switch, and allow the dishwasher to work again.
So what happens, is this, when the STOP button is pressed Mid-Cycle, the machine must "Dump" whatever water is still in the machine, into the "Overflow Reservoir". This water then causes the Anti-flood switch to jam, and this stops the machine, until it is reset,by the above method.

AROUND THE DOOR OR FRAME IF IT IS GONE A PRIOR SERVICER COULD HAVE REMOVED IT

I am assuming the dishwasher is not working.

You will need to check where the plastic has come from. The temperature has to be very high for the plastic to melt. This can happen if the dishwasher heater has been on with no water in the dishwasher. Normally the controller should not allow this. Also the thermostat should cut in to prevent the temperature from going high.

Most likely it is not plastic but a problem in the wash pump which is causing some residue to circulate in the water and deposit on heating element.

In any case, try to scrape off as much of the material as you can and then run the dishwasher with a Finish dishwasher cleaning kit. The instructions are on the kit label.

Hope this helps. Please rate the solution.

The water inlet valve is likely bad.


Thanks for using FixYa - a 4 THUMBS rating is appreciated for answering your FREE question

Verify the bottom tray is allowing clearance for the door to open, a reveresed tray blocks opening...

Remove the front bottom access plate.
Look inside on the bottom right and left front corners for the spring and replace it in the grooves and slots from the door hinge to the cabinet base.
If the cabinet sides are in your way,you must remove the 2 screws mounting the machine to the underside of your counter top and pull the machine forward a few inches.
You should be able to do this without disconnecting water or power.
If the door spring is broken you will have to go to the appliance parts store in your area for another one.

There is a pump that pumps the water out. I would think, the pump is blocked, a common thing.. or maybe you have a blocked outlet hose,or the like. or perhaps your hose has fallen down? You need your hose higher than the DW outlet to stop it siphoning.

I have had a look for a service manual, but cannot find any info much at all. Sometimes there is a maintenance manual, behind the inspection hatch in your machine, please check.

the problem is hard water. go to www.dishwasherfilter.com and get their filter system.
