LG dishwasher repair in Jerusalem.Major LG dishwasher failures.

Any equipment has a limited service life, which depends on the manufacturer and quality of the device, on its price and on a large number of factors. Of course, you and I know perfectly well that the actual service life in most cases exceeds the time stated by the manufacturer. This rule also applies to dishwashers. But we also understand that nothing is eternal and the dishwasher may fail sooner or later. And most often this happens according to the law of meanness, at the moment when we least expect it.

Step 2
The main thing is to understand that nothing terrible happened. Any problem can be corrected. The most important thing is to identify the symptoms and figure out which node is faulty. After that, it will become clear whether it is possible to fix the dishwasher yourself or whether you need to contact qualified specialists.

Step 3
First of all, I would like to pay attention to the age of your dishwasher. How many years has it faithfully served you? If the service life exceeds 7-8 years, then it is quite possible that some of the parts could simply wear out and you just need to find and change them. If a new dishwasher suddenly stops working, then this is a reason to think. First of all, check whether the warranty is valid or has already expired. If it works, then it’s better not to do an independent repair, as it can void your warranty – just contact the warranty workshop.

Step 4
If the warranty is no longer there, then proceed to search for the cause of the malfunction:

Poor assembly of components of the dishwasher. Usually this happens only in budget models of little-known brands.
Check filter. It has a tendency to get dirty. The problem is easily solved, but in order to prevent this problem in the future, you need to properly prepare the dishes before washing – remove the remnants of coarse food that clog the filter
Power supply. You need to check the serviceability of the socket and wires
Wrong connection. If the machine is connected incorrectly, then failures in its operation are likely.
Poor quality detergent
Incorrect loading of dishes into the dishwasher. Read the manual for your machine, it says exactly how to load the dishes inside
Loose closing of the machine door. If this happens, you just need to close the door tightly. Check the tightness and serviceability of the lock
If you have checked all of the above, and the problem is not solved, then with a high degree of probability the problem lies in faulty parts. What part could fail? We will understand in our article.

Step 5
The dishwasher does not start the washing process.

You turn on the machine and realize that the indicators have come on, signaling to us that the machine is working. At the same time, the sound of water is heard, which is collected in the dishwasher tank. But the dishwasher won’t start. This means a malfunction. What could have happened?

Step 6
For elimination:

Clean the filter thoroughly. It is usually located at the bottom of the machine – it is removed and gently washed with detergent;
Nozzle cleaning. It often happens that the nozzles are clogged and water does not pass through them. They also directly affect the water pressure during washing. If there is a fact of clogging, then the dishes will not be washed with high quality. You can fix this problem yourself – use a toothpick, but be careful;
Problem with the circulation pump inside the dishwasher. This pump is responsible for supplying water to the nozzles (sprinklers). A toothpick in this case will no longer help you, in such situations the pump simply changes to a new one;
Burnout of the motor winding. This issue can also cause your machine to not start. Checking this fault is carried out using a tester.

Step 7
If the dishwasher draws too much water.

There are cases in which water is collected in the dishwasher in volumes that exceed the permissible norms and this anticipates the process of washing dishes. Such a problem tells us that the water level sensor is 100% out of order in the car. This sensor is located at the bottom of the machine. It cannot be repaired, it must be removed and replaced with a new one.

Step 8
It also happens when water in the dishwasher is collected even when the power is off. In this case, you need to check the correct operation of the solenoid valve. It is the solenoid valve that is responsible for blocking the water supply.
