Need Help Diagnosing My Dishwasher Issues

0
Asked By D1Y_M5Aster On

Hey everyone! I'm looking for some insights from anyone who has experience with appliance repairs. My dishwasher is leaving food residue on my dishes, and I did a bit of digging into the issue. According to the manual, the water should reach 135°F on the high heat setting, but it only gets up to 109°F. I've read that the common culprits could be the heating element, thermostat, or control panel. I tested the heating element and thermostat, and both passed with a multimeter. Before I shell out $280 on a new control panel, is there a way to test it? Or is there something else I might be missing?

Have you tried adding a rinse aid? It might help boost your cleaning results. It can't hurt to give it a shot!

Thanks, but I already added rinse aid and it's still not working.

Don't forget to check the drain filter! If it’s blocked, that could be affecting the washing performance too.

Is that the filter located inside under the racks?
