Dishwasher doesn't run

Don't forget to check for a switch on the wall above the counter. I just rediscovered mine for the fifth time since I moved in here, right next to the garbage disposal switch.

If you turn on the dishwasher and nothing happens:

1) Be sure the power is on, the door is latched, and the control is turned on. Also make sure the appliance cord is plugged into the electrical receptacle under the sink (some are hardwired and don't come unplugged). If it can be unplugged, make sure the electrical receptacle is working (plug in a working appliance or a circuit tester).

2) If that doesn't solve the problem, the door switch, the timer, or the selector switch may be defective. To solve the problem, you may be able to adjust the door latch's strike slightly, using a screwdriver (turn off the power to the dishwasher at the electrical panel when working on it).

3) If that doesn't work, call an appliance repairperson.

my dishwasher suddenly stopped working and my bf, who thinks he's mr. fix it, tried everything but your method. ok how do i adjust the door latch?

tried the screwdriver on mine hey presto!!! mines now working thankyou so much
