What we do
Service overview
Dishwasher not draining, not cleaning, or showing an error code? We find the cause and get your Kenmore dishwasher back to spotless cycles.
In most Kenmore appliances, Dishwasher Repair points to a control, sensor, airflow, or component issue that should be confirmed against the exact model before parts are replaced.
Start with simple owner-safe checks. If the same fault returns quickly, book a diagnosis instead of repeating temporary resets.

Dishes coming out dirty or gritty

It usually means the unit is not draining — often a clogged filter, blocked hose or a drain pump issue. A quick diagnosis confirms which.
Codes point to a specific detected fault, such as a water-supply or drainage problem. See our error-code library for plain-language meanings.
If it leaks or shows a fault, it is best to pause use to avoid water damage.
