In Spain, garbage disposals are not common, but in your case I would follow these steps:
New cycle: Sometimes the washing programs for household appliances stop due to a mechanical or electrical error in one phase, in the dishwasher the cycle begins with a new drain.
Filter: check objects that do not decompose in the filter, those that do tend to do so due to the high temperature of the water and detergents, but if you have doubts you can use a nylon electrician's guide and see if the tube circuit is free.
3: Only the drain pump remains or an electronic problem.
To clean and disinfect the machine you can use white vinegar, cheaper and more ecological and it is bactericidal, it also polishes metal and glass.
I thought you would end up in the downspouts of the building knocking down some partition or in the street, in the sewer 😆.
By the way, that British brand has only given me problems.
Ty 👍
Anti vampire kit made me choke 😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂this video helped me fix my dish washer
Mine is brand new. First use ever. So there is nothing that could clog up the drain. Plus it won’t turn off and keeps making a buzzing sound. No clue where the plug is or which fuse to turn off at the main box! Service number is closed until the morning and I keep getting and error code where the blue light is flashing quickly. Keep in mind that I JUST moved in this place and the dishwasher along with the garbage disposal is all brand new! It’s 10:30 pm and I can’t call the landlord so prayers that we don’t all burn up in a fire tonight from this damned low reviewed dishwasher. Sorry for the language but I’m at my wits end tonight😢
everybody gangster until their dishwasher stop working
Hahah 💀💀💀
This video has a better story line than the last 8 Disney movies combined
And that includes the Star Wars sequel trilogy.
Dishwasher issues sent me here in a very bad mood...but then...i read your comment....spouse and i are now roaring with laughter!!! People like you, who share their witty minds....make the world a better place!!
I was invested in the characters and story
@@patd.3368 and people like you who appreciate humour make the best world ❤
I agree 👍🏼
Me after watching this video : Call plumber
Same thing I'm thinking 😂😂😂
Literally
same... nnoooooooo thank you.... disassembling shit and investigating? byeee....
Just found this and wanted to say this is literally one of the most clear, easy to follow, and logical repair videos I'ver ever seen. Nice work and thank you!
Without exaggeration this is the most helpful RUclips DIY vid I’ve seen. Followed each step to a T and we had the exact same problem! It was wooden chopstick pieces that had gotten snapped off and made their way to the motor. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
Also appreciate your conclusion was not only “now you can fix it for yourself next time” but rather “now you can help someone else.” Good on ya!
Dude fr this guy is a beast I was just telling my gf how this vid was helpful in every way imaginable dude hit all the key points and was a joy to work alongside!
How did that piece get past the filter?
Explained in a clear, easy to understand manner. Now I have a grasp of how my dishwasher works overall and I can troubleshoot the lines for wherever the blockage is. Thank you!
You’re reducing the work load for Whirlpool service technicians out there with such an excellent youtube video and clear instruction. Thank you!
And how much for a service like this would actually cost from you guys?
WOW! You put together a better video than the manufacturer could have done. So professional! Just watch out for those vampires! It might happen again.
Your photography and editing are as good as your advice. I watched this with the sound off while my wife slept and got your meaning perfectly. Thank you!
Thanks a million! I followed every step. Even checking all the pipes under the sink then realized my dishwasher has its own water source, but those pipes were NASTY and needed a good cleaning. In the end it was exactly the same problem. There was a Bobby pin (not plastic fork tine) caught in the pump. This has been a horrible week with things breaking so thank you for helping me fix this "on my own."
After reading all the comments from all you men only thing I could come up with you guys must be plumbers or are professionals
This level of video quality on a video like this is impressive. Good work!
This video literally saved me phoning an engineer. The UK dish washers set up is essentially the same. Thank you, so clear and illustrated perfect. Will definitely share this video.
This was an amazing repair video. Thank you so much! My dishwasher wasn’t draining and I checked all of the pipes and nothing was clogged. I followed your video step-by-step and when I took the motor off there was a piece of glass stuck in there. I just ran a cycle and it drained properly! Amazing!
Only dislikes are from dishwasher repairmen. 😂
This video helped me so much. I was able to replace the drain pump, which had two pieces of glass in it. The glass had blocked the pump blades and burned up the motor. Without the video, I probably would've just spent $800-$1000 to replace the dishwasher. Also, I went thru your steps and cleaned my drain hose and garbage disposal, which were nasty and partially blocked at both. Thanks for the video and great job!
I did this and it saved me 1000 bucks. I had my eye on a Bosch and almost ripped the old one out until I found this video. Had a broken piece of glass in the teeth of the pump. Thanks !
Thank you for this step by step video that was incredibly easy to follow! Helped me locate a piece of glass that had the water pump not functioning.
Question: In the first few troubleshooting steps you took looking for clogs in the disposal or sink drain, wouldn't you have been able to tell that wasn't the case if the dishwasher doesn't drain but the sink does? I'm asking because my sink drains but my dishwasher doesn't, so I think it must be a problem with the dishwasher train tube or the pump like in this video and I really don't want to have to take my whole unit out if I can avoid it
Thank you so much for posting this video! I had the EXACT same issue with mine and the resolution was in the EXACT same location! Not how I wanted to spend my Friday night but your troubleshooting allowed me to expedite the process a lot quicker. Thank you!
WOW! You are incredible! this video is so well put together. All images are clear, but more than anything you went from A to Z, covering all possible repairs. Extremely useful and helpful. Thank you, sincerely, for giving us your expertise.
"So much fear and doubt over so small a thing." You made my day.
I see you are quite the distinguished gentleman.
I had already taken the pump completely off the machine put it all back together for it to not work. Then I saw this video where you simply open the pump. Thanks man! Mine didn’t have anything in it. It was just gummed up and needed to be spun by hand to loosen it up, then ran for multiple sanitary cycles, and all good now!
Very good video. I wish all “how to” videos on here were like this!
Must have been the most thorough and detailed diy videos I’ve seen. Thanks for the info. Definitely subbing to your channel
Thanks hippieboi!
This video helped me fix our dishwasher a week ago :) Our dishwasher is about 10-15years old and I decided to give it a shot and try to fix it. I did exactly as you described and found a date pit inside the pump - woopwoop!
I’m so thankful for you publishing this video, I even feel empowered doing this with your help. All my best to you!
Starting with running hot water and the disposal while running the rinse cycle will typically clear anything in the line.. if that doesn't work, remove the bottom filters! Thank you so much for this video! It worked!
Teamwork makes the dream work, wildwoman222
Great video, clear, concise, and easy to follow, thank you! My problem was a bend/kink in the hose connection to the garbage disposal, where a buildup of gunk eventually blocked it. Your step by step approach saved me so much time, money and aggravation, THANKS!
Oh haiiilllll naww! Dishsoap and sponge we go!
Thank you so much. I’ve never seen such a beautiful inside of a dishwasher in my life. What a beautiful and shiny chrome inside. It looks like so many dishwashers back up and won’t drain with the problem being a clogged garbage disposal hose and/or a plugged garbage disposal, drain or a filter, if you have one. Once again, thank you for sharing😊
Perfect explanations and video - thank you !
(Except I was looking for the fuse on my dishwasher but I’m going to clean all the filters now too )
This video saved me and my dad's time and money. Similar dish washer, everything shown was clear tried the same thing and turned out that we have a piece of glass stuck between the blade of the pump.
Thank you to The BeefMaster and definitely left a like.
Thank you for adding humor to the dirty task of dishwasher repair!!😊
Dishwasher repair is a beast of burden so I'm happy they helped you out.
Thank you for sharing this video with us. It’s very helpful, super easy to understand and very clear explanation. Now I am going to check on my clog dishwasher 😊
Never soon so detail explanation and with clear video. Amazing! Feel like I graduated on how to clean a dishwasher. Now onto me fixing my dishwasher. Thank you!!
Awesome comment. Thanks for watching.
Thank you! Your video helped me pinpoint my problem. I saw how the drain pump disconnected and the little yellow fins helped me tremendously. I used a shop vac to suck out the drain, and one of these little yellow fins popped out. It wasn’t until I saw this clip, and 7:08 specifically, that I knew where to look. Ordered a new one from Amazon for $29… and now I’m back in business.
Thank you for your awesome step by step guidance. I’ve never done anything handy around my house and this video you posted gave me courage to do it myself. I got it done thanks to you
The best and most comprehensive dishwasher drain repair video I have seen. Cover all options from the simplest to the more complicated ones. And entertaining too (vampire tooth LOL)!!
These are all the things I was wondering. This seems like such a daunting task to me. The equivalent of doing the Appalachian Trail.
Thanks to you, I fixed my dishwasher!! Thank you!! I had tried earlier this year to no avail. Today your video was the first to come up. I followed each of your steps and found a piece of plastic in the water drain reservoir underneath the dishwasher after took it apart. Couldn’t believe that little piece of plastic kept the water from draining.
Fantastic. You are awesome, Valaida.
THANK YOU!!!! Such a great video and so thorough!! I had a small piece of plastic in the same place. Again thank you!!!
Thank you so much my friend! Because of you, we were able to fix our dishwasher. We had the exact same issue. You saved us a lot of money! 👍
This just saved me a 100 mile round trip and a service call of 150.00 My problem was exactly the same. piece of plastic in the pump. Thank you!!!
Yessir
Thank you, this video helped me out so much. My water was not draining due to an incomplete installation of a new garbage disposal. The guy I hired to do the job did not punch through the drain line housing in the garbage disposal; thus; the water had no way to evacuate through the plumbing. Was able to in addition clean my drain line. Again thank you as you indirectly solved my problem when I saw all that gunk you pulled out of the disposal and I knew from my finger being in that same hole that there was a plastic seal there. I drilled through that and fixed the problem.
Had the same problem with an almost identical DW.
I pretty much performed your whole video after watching it, including the ending.
A quarter sized piece of glass was jamming the pump fins.
The owners didn't save $400 but I made $200!
Thanks you!
I think it's great to know also save you money knowing what you can do
Great tutorial…you helped me pause and refocus on what other problem it could be (the air gap was clogged with a small piece of plastic). Thank you.
Happy to see u saved 400 us$ , even İTS more expensive in France, but I just had to go to step 2 ! Thanks for your useful video !
Great video. Followed along, step by step, slowly eliminating possibilities. Finally found a small piece of glass in the pump, right where you found the plastic fork.
Worked like a charm!
Except when I put the drain hose to my mouth and blew into it to see if it was clogged, and the blockage backpressured right into my mouth. The dishwasher drains now, and I only have 60 more days of anti-viral medication and the doctor says I will probably stop trembling and slurring my speech!
(But seriously, great video.)
You are too funny thanks for the laugh after that video I needed one.
You rock, my man!! Thanks for your help! I found my problem in step 2. My main drain was blocked with smelly gunk. I'm sure glad I didn't need to proceed to step 3 (but I was ready to do whatever it took)!
Great video but how does a bit of a plastic fork get past the filter ? And I don’t think anyone is capable of dismantling a dishwasher like you did especially when every dishwasher is different.
This video is a life saver! I had the exact same problem. I found a broken piece of glass in the filter while trying to drain out the water, so on a hunch, I skipped straight to the last part (the hunch was strong!) And ..... Yes ... Found another broken piece of glass that was obstructing the motor! Problem solved! Thanks a bunch!
Excellent video. Very thorough, filmed well with good angles and concise explanations! Thank you! I’m dreading doing this troubleshooting, but confident this will walk me through it .
I appreciate your calm and helpful intonation and method of explaining things. Thank you!
This is so spot on. I am having the same issues with my dishwasher I appreciate the breakdown I will try it out to see if I can fix the problem
Thank you but old women now have to learn how to do dishwasher work 😁, thank you
IT BEATS PAYING FOR A MAINTENANCE PERSON AND NOW YOU LEARN HOW TO DO ANOTHER FIX. I LOVE DOING THIS TYPE OF WORK
That was super helpful. Just a clogged drain pipe and it needed a high loop. Got to skip the last, most difficult part.
Yayyyyyyyyy! 😂
The best explanation I have ever found for fixing a dishwasher. Thank you!
Thank you for the vid, and showing how simple this all is!! Made very quick work of my own dishwasher tonight (though I'm not sure why the pump stalled. There didn't appear to be any debris. It just... somehow seized slightly. A gentle twist of the impeller seems to have it back in operation... for now?!)
Great video! I followed all steps show, and my dishwasher is running like new!
Amazing video. I followed it step by step. Little piece of glass stuck in my pump. You’re a life saver ❤
This video was SO SATISFYING. The way you systematically problem solved this issue and showed several possible solutions is great 👌👌👌
Am having drainage problem with my dishwasher and this video was what the doctor ordered. Thank you so much.
Great video, and after watching I was able to restore drainage for my dishwasher. Very simple to follow....Thank you. I found a blockage in the drain tube from the dishwasher to garbage disposal
This video is absolutely wonderfully done. Very clear simple and detailed. My old one stopped draining and I got a new one put in but it still doesn't drain so I'm guessing it's a under the sink issue so I'm going to start there. Keep up the great work you've earn a follow.
Thanks latoya. You are awesome.
Thanks a million for our excellent advice! (Ironically, I have the same dishwasher.) One thing needs to be emphasized: These drain pumps are centrifugal type pumps that have the ability to pump lots of volume, but they have NO tolerance for back pressure. Any blockage, no matter how little, will slow or stop the flow. In my case the hose below the washer to the drain was plugged. (I have no disposal unit.) I used my suck or blow vacuum cleaner to clear the line and all was well again.
Great trouble shooting the issue in the right order (easy to difficult task). I’m not a handyman so your video is super helpful. Also appreciate close up, clear shot. Thank you very much.
Thank you for such a good explanation. I'm fighting the same issue.
Awesome! Thanks so much for the clear and consise video. I had done the 3 steps before watching this video. Took apart the motor and found a chipped piece of ceramic jamming it. Just ran a load and it worked beautifully!
Nice. Thanks for watching. Glad it helped out.
Yes!!! Just fixed my dishwasher from your advice!! 👏👏👍👍..Thanks!
This video is perfect clear and I solved the same issue with ease.
Followed this video and discovered we had the exact same issue. Have never tried DIY repair work before but this video was an excellent guide. Thanks mate. Now, to fix my starter motor on my car 😢
Thank you so much. Cleaning the filters was all that was needed.😃
Nice. Glad it helped you out Lauren.
Hey my man! This was my exact situation with a single bay leaf. Saved me a ton of money and I learned stuff too. Thanks!
Awesome. And go lions!
Very helpful - ordered the garlic and Wago nuts and all is well!
This didn’t fix my dishwasher’s issue, but was easily the most helpful video or article I’ve come across in my attempts 👍👍
Happy to report that cleaning the primary and secondary filters resolved my water drainage issue. Thank you BeefMaster!
Great video! What’s funny is I have all the tools that you use at my disposal except a cup small enough to manually drain the water 😂
Ha had the same problem. Everything started to look like a potential container.
When I pressed the drain option I did NOT hear the motor run. Assumed it was a bad motor. When I opened up the motor nothing was found, but it was all gunked up with soap deposits. I spun the motor around a few times and then cleaned everything with vinegar, crossed my figures and put it all back together. Instantly heard the motor kick in when I hit the drain option. ALL GOOD! Definitely worth running a cleaning cycle monthly.
Best dishwasher Repair video that I have seen on RUclips, yet.
Best commenter that I've seen on RUclips yet.
Thanks, this was perfect. I did all the steps and I found a piece of a glass cup in the pump area. Thanks again!
This was very, very helpful! Thank you for sharing your skills and vampire tooth in the drain pump...
Thanks to your excellent presentation, I am confident I now have the skills to search for that dreaded piece of fork! GOOD JOB! Thank you!
Great video, one pro tip is to leave the cover off the front of the dishwasher and check for leaks before installing the front lower cover.
Fantastic video! It is giving me some insight into what may be causing my dishwasher to back up. I am going try some of these things before calling a repairman. Thank you!
Thank you so much for posting this. Mine is doing the exact same thing with the water in the bottom. I’m going to attempt to fix it tomorrow. I’m a little confused about the under the sink part with that line that runs up to the outlet next to the Overflow by the kitchen sink. Mine doesn’t look like it would spray up any water if it overflowed. But I’m going to at least try what you did. I have a plumber coming soon to repair some toilets I have one of those Home Warranty‘s that I’m paying $65 to have two brand new toilet installed so that’s not bad maybe I can get him to also look at the dishwasher lol.
Your video saved me a couple hundred dollars 😊 I had the white plastic thingy found under the beer bottle caps stuck at the pump outlet. Probably the repairman would have asked me to change the whole damn pump. God bless bud
My dishwasher wasn't draining. Came to YT for tips, and your vid was one of the vids that helped me figure out how to fix the problem. Thanks for posting!
I got your back
Super well done, and I love the humor included at no extra charge.
This is a life saver video if you are staying in a rented house🤕
I truly enjoyed your video and thank you for trying to help those of us who are having this issue. I am forwarding this video to my husband to see if we missed something. He just changed the drainage pump and checked the hoses but I don’t think he took down the garbage disposal. The cycle isn’t signaling and there is water collecting even after changing the pump. I just hope he can figure this out we don’t want to rely on someone coming in and misleading us.Thank you again and God bless you!
Thanks, Pamela. Glad it helped you and your husband. Hope you get it fixed.
Thank you! I used your instructions and it worked!! (My husband is quite impressed with me :)). Your verbal and visual instructions were better than any others I saw on RUclips.
Thank you kindly, Sue Ann.
Just used this trick on a Bosch silence plus 50dBa and it worked like a charm!
every step is gold and I fixed my stuff
, thanks alot
Thanks man! Your commentary was so relatable!
Thank you!, a piece of glass was stuck in my motor as well! this video helped so much!
Followed your advice and you would never guess in our pump was a piece of plastic from a pair of scissor
Thanks for your advice
Cheers from Greg in Australia
10/10 VIDEO AND INSTRUCTIONS. I really enjoyed how you gave us your rationale and mindset through the video. Thank you
THANK YOU. Noticed the dishwasher wasn’t draining last night before bed, now I feel that I can go tackle it on my own. Bought my house a couple months ago and this is the first semi-big thing I’ll be attempting to fix myself, thank you for this resource that I can add to my skill set 🙏🏻
