My diswhasher will not clean, it started with the upper rack mainly but now the lower rack gets half clean, any solutions? I removed the arm and cleaned out what I saw, anything else?
Thanks in advance:confused:

What is the water level inside? Did you see any white stuff inside the dishwasher when it's dry? What kind of soap did you use? How hard is the water in your house? Did you hear the pump running when it's on wash cycle?

I don't notice any white film or powder and I know that we have water in there. I can here the pump working but it sounds like it is leaking out the bottom, which of course it is not.
It seems as though sometimes(the odd time) it cleans the dishes well, other times nothing.
The water is not hard at all, we live in the city so it is pretty good.
We use Electrasol solid with the red ball in it.

Thanks for the reply

Check the chopper assembly as described in one of our previous posts: http://forum.appliancepartspros...hirlpool-dishwasher.html

Post the results.

You were right there was a toothpick jammed in it, it cleans fine now, but now it wont shut off, it just keeps running, something I did or just a fluke?
Thanks for your help

It just keeps running, no lights blink, you have to manually stop it
