My friend has a Maytag dishwasher that is just under three years old. It is not used very often, maybe once a week.

For the couple of uses, there has been a high pitched whine when the machine is first activated. The whine lasts approximately 35 seconds, then stops.

The machine seems to be working well. We have checked to see if there is anything in the bottom of the machine. Nothing visible.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Sheila
