Take the dish rack out. look at the back bottom of the dishwasher. you will most likely see a screen. Check if there is food, or a toothpick or a thin sheet of plastic wrap covering the screen. Remove it. Clean the screen and bottom of the dishwasher of any debris. Put the rack back in. Load the dishwasher, put in the soap and turn it on. You should have nice clean dishes.

SOURCE: error code AO1

Error message A01 means -Acqua stop operated due to a leak or overfill. Check if there is still water in the machine after it stop pumping. In case you still have water - your problem is with the pump or with a blockage drain line. If there is no water in the machin, it might be a water level sensor issue - stuck physically in the high level position or become defective. Try to reduced the water presure and leveled it up by the water entrance tap to the machine, it might solve your problem. Goog luck !!

SOURCE: maytag dishwasher mdb9600awb - loud pump

This has happened a few times to me as well.(VERY VERY LOUD NOISE AT THE BOTTOM)I have the same model It did stop.I did a little reading and came to the conclusion that it was the built in food disposer chopping blades were chopping up something like a cherry pit or peach pit and once an end of a wooden spoon that dropped down.If you look at your USE and care Guide on page 12 under trouble shooting "Dishwasher seems noisy"..I went through the same thing taking things apart.Its got to be it. Mine is 2 1/2 years as well. Hope this helps. [email protected]

SOURCE: check water light is on

I had the same problem! First disconnect mains power, then switch off the mains water to the water input hose, and disconnect the hose. Disconnect the waste outlet hose from your drainage. ( this will release some water from the hose ends, so a washing up bowl would be handy ) You will need to tip the dishwasher on to it's back, be carefull not to damage the waste outlet hose, and watch out from more water spillage. Next remove the two screws on the base metal cover, and spring out the cover from the two side clips, the cover can then be removed, you should have a screw holding an earth lead remove screw and lead from cover.
Inside the bottom of the dishwasher you will see a small electric pump fitted to the side of the dishwashers drain, it has two wires with spade connector on them, disconnect these from the pump noting colour of the wires for reassembling. The pump has the same diameter hose as the outlet hose. Next carefully remove the rubber elbow pipe from the pump and hose end this will need to be washed with clean water. Then to remove the pump, press and hold down the locking tab, where the pump is fitted to the drain, and twist the pump anti-clockwise. The pump will then release from the drain. Inspect the pump impellers for damage, and that the pump has free movement, also check condition of the rubber O-ring. Inspect inside of drain for broken bits of china and glass, remove and clean, also check the outlet hose for any blockages.
( run some water though the hose backwards from the water tap and collect it in a bowl from the pump end of the hose ) Reassembly is the reverse of the above, check electrics inside have not got wet, if ok switch on. The check water light should now be off.

Code2 comes up in the manual it says the drain hose is too high

Sure, if the drain pump have worked four minutes, and the pressure switch has not been reset, then the dishwasher will shutdown all the loads, the alarm buzzer will ring for thirty seconds and the dispaly shows E2. After alarming the dishwasher pause for three minutes than drain water for 60 seconds.
Disconnect completely the dishwasher from power outlet, drain eventual water inside the dishwasher, wait 30 mins or so, then plug back machine into power socket.
If the Delonghi has still problem when you restart it, then probably the pressure switch or the acqua stop device, which start up and stop the drain pump, is probably faulty and need to be replaced.
Basically with codee2, if you get water floods in the dishwasher, is usually the pressure switch or the water inlet valve to be changed.
When no water or very scarce water comes inside the machine, then it is the pressure switch or the aqua-stop switch.
Start testing, and eventually changing the pressure switch , this is often the cause for such problem.

Samsung Dishwasher DW80K7050US Drain Normally at the Beginning but Not During the Cycle

It's conceivable that there is a problem with the drain pump or the drain line if your Samsung dishwasher drains normally at the beginning of the cycle but not during it.
You can try the following methods to solve the issue:

Inspect for obstructions in the drain hose:
Check to see if there are any kinks or obstructions in the drain hose that might be preventing water from flowing through it.
Use a long, flexible brush or a plumber's snake to unclog any obstructions you encounter.

Examine the drain pump: During the cycle, the drain pump propels water out of the dishwasher.
Water from the dishwasher might not be able to drain if the pump isn't working properly.
By removing the bottom access panel and finding the drain pump, you can inspect the pump.
Check the area around the pump for any debris or impediments that might be restricting it.
Test the continuity of the pump with a multimeter if it is clear.
It could be necessary to replace the pump if it is not performing properly.

Inspect the float switch: The float switch is placed inside the dishwasher and is responsible for monitoring the water level.
The switch may be stopping the dishwasher from emptying correctly if it is jammed or not working properly.
Make sure the switch can move freely by inspecting it.
Try wiping it with a moist towel if it's stuck.

Check the dishwasher's control board: The control board is the "brain" of the dishwasher and is responsible for regulating the various functions. If the board is malfunctioning, it may be preventing the dishwasher from draining properly. Check the board for any signs of damage or corrosion. If it appears to be damaged, it may need to be replaced.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it's recommended that you contact a professional appliance repair

Dishwasher not cleaning dishes

DISHWASHER NOT CLEANING WELL??
Here are 5 common reasons why not.
Here are Improper Water Temperature
I can tell you from personal experience that water temperature has a direct impact on how well your family's dishwasher operates. If the water entering your dishwasher is not hot enough, your dishes are likely to come out coated with grease and dish detergent residue. As such, you will want to make sure that the temperature of the water inside your dishwasher is somewhere between the range of 120 degrees Fahrenheit and 140 degrees Fahrenheit. If it's not it could be a faulty heating element.
Dirty Pump
Based on my experience, a dirty dishwasher pump will also cause your dishwasher to produce less than stellar results. Therefore, you may want to consider cleaning your dishwasher's pump every six months. In many instances, it is an easy task to complete. In order to clean your dishwasher's pump, you'll most likely have to remove the dishwasher's spray arms. Once the spray arms are removed, you'll want to clean and inspect the pump's impellers, blades and pump guard. I should also mention that there are appliance companies that sell dishwasher pump repair kits should you notice that a part needs to be replaced. A basic dishwasher pump repair kit will tend to cost you $20 to $60 depending on your dishwasher's unique needs.
Dirty Spray Arm
Dirty spray arms may also be to blame. After all, if the spray arms' holes are clogged, the hot water won't be able to reach the dishes properly. A dishwasher's spray arms are very simple to clean. In order to clean them, you will need an old toothbrush and a bread twist tie that has been stripped of its paper. Use the toothbrush's bristles and the wire from the bread twist tie to unclog all the holes.
Broken Dish Detergent Dispenser
A broken dish detergent dispenser is another likely culprit when it comes to dish cleanliness problems. Sometimes the dish detergent dispenser's door will not open or shut properly, which prevents the dishes from getting nice and soapy. The good news is that most dish detergent dispenser problems may be solved relatively inexpensively. The cost of a replacement dish detergent dispenser will vary based on the make and model of your dishwasher. There are also instructional videos online that will help you with the installation of your dishwasher's new detergent dispenser.
Dirty Filter
A filter has an impact on a dishwasher's effectiveness as well. Hence, you will want to inspect your dishwasher's filter for obstructions. The location and type of filter will vary based on your dishwasher's make and model. I would recommend that you check out your dishwasher's operator's manual. It should contain instructions on how to clean your particular unit's filter as well as where you can order a replacement part if need be.

Dishwasher will not clean well leaving a lot of particles, etc. on dishes.

Hi Jim.

A dishwasher may clean poorly for a number of different reasons. Before replacing parts or looking for a fault I suggest going through the following checklist:

  1. Make sure you are not using a rinse only cycle, test using Hi Temp Wash cycle and Hi Scrub.
  2. Check that you are using proper detergent, as suggested in the manual.
  3. Make sure you are using rinse aid.
  4. Make sure that dishes and pans are correctly positioned in the baskets.
  5. Check if stains go away when you soak the glasses in vinegar. In that case the problem is hard water. Correct the amount of detergent as from page 7 on manual.
  6. Check that the arms are free to rotate.
  7. Check for leaks in the duct to the upper spray arms, make sure that the upper spray arm is well mounted.
  8. Make sure that incoming water from the house has pressure and that hot water has about 120F(50C).
  9. Check for food obstruction in the drain or disposer.
  10. Check that the drain hose at the back is not kinked.
  11. Check that the machine is completing the cycle.
  12. Try running a light cycle with both sides of the detergent cup filled with soda or Jet Cleaner product.
If none of the above is the problem, then the most common faults with this model that result in incorrect cleaning are caused by the following parts. Please refer to the part manual to find diagrams and part location.

  1. Accumulator Filter (part 7 in Pump and motor diagram)
  2. Docking Station with Flappers(part 3 in Water Distribution Assembly)
  3. Seal and Chopper Kit (part 9 in Pump and motor diagram)
  4. Wash Impeller(part 6 in Water Distribution Assembly)

Locked flappers and clogged filter are the most common causes that may result in improper wash.Please refer to the part manual to find diagrams and part location.

Dishes are not clean due to insufficient water. Arms are clean, strainer is clean, water supply is OK,some soap is still in opened dispenser

Disassembled solenoid, found plugged inline strainer (caused by water shut-down in building to replace recirc. pump) Pulled and flushed filter basket, problem solved. Solenoid must be removed to access filter which is in sol. body. I hope this can help anyone who does'nt have a tech manual or flow diagram.
