Why is there water sitting in the bottom of my Electrolux dishwasher?

Usually the filter is clogged or something is jammed in the drain pump. Check and rinse the filter first. If the water still doesn't drain, the pump, drain hose or garbage disposal connection needs to be checked.

A roommate used dish soap in our dishwasher and it flooded. Is it damaged?

Usually not. Remove the foam, run a rinse cycle with no detergent and dry the floor. If the dishwasher still leaks or shows an error after the suds are gone, report it to your landlord, since water may have reached the control or a seal.

Is a dishwasher in an older Hidden Valley-area home worth repairing?

It depends on the fault. Pumps, valves and latches are usually reasonable repairs, while a cracked tub or failed control on an older budget model may not be. We also check the supply and drain connections and tell you if they need attention.

Electrolux Dishwashers: What We Check First

Electrolux dishwashers sit on a platform closely related to Frigidaire's higher-end models. They use a stainless tub, a filter assembly under the lower spray arm, a circulation pump with an attached heater on many versions, and a separate drain pump. Controls are usually hidden in the top edge of the door, and many models have features like a scrubbing zone at the back of the lower rack or adjustable spray patterns.

Drain pump impeller jammed by glass or food debris
Door latch switch failure preventing the cycle from starting
Hidden top touch controls unresponsive from moisture intrusion
Clogged filter or spray arm holes causing poor wash results

The full explanation, including what you can safely check yourself and when repair beats replacement, is in our Electrolux dishwasher repair guide.

Suds, Food Debris and Older Connections

Dishwashers in rented houses near campus fail in recognizable ways. Someone runs a load with hand dish soap and the kitchen floor fills with foam. Plates go in unscraped, the filter clogs and the pump starts to whine. A door gets slammed or leaned on, and the latch or the hinge cables give out.

Homes on the older southern side of University City, around Hidden Valley, may have dishwashers that replaced an original unit, sometimes connected to aging supply lines and drain setups that deserve a look. Family homes in the northern subdivisions more often have builder dishwashers wearing out at about the same time as the rest of the kitchen.

For a suds flood, stop the cycle, wipe out the foam and run a rinse with water only. Clean the filter regularly. If water leaks onto the floor, switch off the breaker and close the supply valve under the sink. We test the pump, valve and latch, and quote before repairing.
