How do I clean the filters in my Maytag dishwasher?

Remove the lower rack, twist out the lower filter and lift out the upper filter. Rinse both under warm water with a soft brush, then reinstall them firmly. Doing this every month or so prevents many problems.

Why are my dishes gritty on well water in Clover?

Sediment in the water is the likely cause. It can clog the filter, the spray arms and the inlet screen. Clean those first, and if the grit continues, consider a sediment filter for the house.

Our Lake Wylie dishwasher won't drain after we were gone a month. What happened?

Food residue may have dried in the filter or drain, or the drain pump may be sticking after sitting. Clean the filter and run the disposal if the dishwasher drains through it. If it still won't drain, we test the pump.

Maytag Dishwashers: What We Check First

Maytag dishwashers are sold on cleaning muscle, with names like PowerBlast for a high-pressure, high-heat cycle and Dual Power Filtration for the two-stage filter in the tub floor. Under the badge they are Whirlpool-platform machines: a wash motor driving lower and upper spray arms, a separate drain pump, a heating element, a water inlet valve and a door latch with switches that tell the control the door is sealed. Some Maytag models add a stainless steel tub and a third rack, and older pre-acquisition Maytag dishwashers use completely different parts.

Dual Power Filtration screens packed with grease, gritty glassware
Drain pump impeller jammed by a pit or glass shard
Door latch switch failing, controls light up but cycle never starts
Heater or thermistor failure leaving PowerBlast cycles cold and wet

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

Sediment, iron and rural water

Dishwashers on private wells around Clover face sediment and iron that clog the inlet valve screen, coat the spray arms and leave a gritty film on dishes. A slow fill, weak spray or rust-colored residue in the tub are typical signs. Cleaning the spray arms and the filter at the bottom of the tub helps, and a whole-house sediment filter kept on schedule protects the valve.

If a dishwasher on well water stops filling entirely, the inlet valve may be clogged beyond cleaning or stuck shut. Turn off the dishwasher's breaker and the supply valve under the sink before pulling the kick plate to look for drips. Replacing the valve is a common, moderate repair, and the technician will also flush the line so the new screen does not clog on the first cycle.

Idle machines in lake homes

A dishwasher that sits unused for weeks can develop dried seals, a stuck float or a pump that hesitates at startup. Before leaving a Lake Wylie home for a while, run a quick rinse cycle and leave the door slightly open. If it will not start, drain or fill when you return, we test the pump, valve, float and controls, and we give you the price before any work.
