a clogged hose. A dishwasher spray arm may be obstructed by food debris.
Switch the appliance off and follow the manufacturer’s instructions before checking anything inside it.
6. Read the Manual Before Searching for a Repair
Your appliance’s manual is often more useful than a random internet video.
Look for sections such as:
Troubleshooting
Error codes
Cleaning and maintenance
Reset procedure
Safety instructions
Manufacturers often provide specific solutions for common problems.
If you no longer have the paper manual, look for the model number and consult the manufacturer’s official documentation.
