Common Dishwasher Problems We Fix in Tarzana

• Standing water in the bottom — a blocked drain path, failed check valve, or clogged air gap that prevents proper drainage.
• Dishwasher not filling with water — a stuck water inlet valve, closed supply line, or float switch stuck in the raised position.
• Cloudy glasses and spotted dishes — hard water mineral deposits, a faulty rinse aid dispenser, or wash temperature too low.
• Door won’t close or latch — a misaligned door, broken latch handle, or a warped tub that prevents a tight seal.
• Dishwasher smells bad — food debris trapped in the filter, mold growing in the door gasket, or stagnant water in the drain sump.
