Default Dishwasher fills with water - does not clean
Model Number: GPDB998JC0   Brand: Frigidaire   Age: 5 - 10 years   
I have a Frigidaire dishwasher that will fill with water and run through the cycles, but it does not clean the dishes. I listened to it run and I do not believe the sprayers are turning. Is this the motor or the sprayer?

It is definitely that the sprayer is not turning. Water is coming up through the sprayer, but it does not turn. Motor or just a part of the turning mechanisim?

It could be not enough water or a problem with the wash pump.

Do you think it is the pump or the inlet water valve?

It has to be tested. Guessing is most expensive way to fix appliances.

Dump a few gallons of water in the dishwasher and see if it now works, if so, you might have a partially clogged screen in the water solenoid.
If still not ok, remove the pump cover and check for something blocking the pump.
