    Have the same problem with our dishwasher (1 year old quiet partner 3)

    I ran the machine with the door open and its obvious that there is insufficient pressure - top arm doesn't turn - water trickles out of arm?

    Was looking on net to figure out how to clean the pump

    same exact problem amd the upper arm is not spinning

  • wrestlermom Mar 13, 2009

    Top spray arm not getting enough pressure and top rack dishes not clean. Some water get there and arm spins somewhat. Is the spray arm seal supposed to have a split?

    I have the same problem: the upper level dishes are not washed.

  • sadsally Apr 21, 2009

    Some of the dishes on the top rack get clean and others don't. Also, there's a crackling sound as dishwasher fills. Please let me know if there's something I can do to fix dishwasher.

Since you have low pressure

  • Check the float switch inside the tub, it should move freely up and down.

  • Check the harness to the motor

  • Check start capacitor on the left side of the wash motor

Whirlpool dishwasher quiet partner lol is not cleaning dishes on top rack
could be a few things clean inside filters and screens listen to it does the wash motor during wash sound strong like it tossing water around in there open the door during the wash see if kicks some water out at you. If it sounds and seems like its working ok then some units have a rubber check valve little flapper in the tube that goes up the back wall to the upper spray arm i have seem break off and clog that tub not allowing any water to the upper spray arm.

My 6 year old Whirlpool dishwasher is loud
This is a bad wash pump. Looking at about $175 for just the sump assembly. You could do it yourself, but unit would need to be uninstalled.

Quiet partner 1 top rack does not get clean at all
Hi,

I would suspect you have debris in the pump that is causing a pressure drop so the water is not spraying well in the upper arm.

Try this procedure to clean out the sump. Let me know if it helps.

I have the Whirlpool Quiet (??) Partner II. My
Have this same problem with my Whirlpool DU1145XTBA. Found out that when you start the unit, it fills with water. If the water does not rise above the filter mesh in the bottom center of the unit then the pump doesn't have enough water to supply pressure to the upper sprayer. Had to replace the Flow Meter. It tells the unit how much water to supply to the unit.

Water level needs to be adjusted, too low
Check for blockage in the water inlet pipe. As per the manual there is no way to adjust the water level.It is automatically chosen by the machine.

Inside of dishwasher not clean after running.
its a lime build up from the quality of your water.goto home depot/lowes or a supermarket and buy clr (calcium lime rust) remover.pour a cup in the dishwasher and run a full cycle.this should do the trick.
