If a dishwasher hums but the motor will not run what is the may the problem be?

If the dishwasher hums and will not start, it usually means the circulation motor has seized up. Do not attempt to keep it running for long periods. You will over heat the motor if it’s not running properly. In rare occasion, glass, chicken bones, popcorn kernels, and believe it or not jewelry can make its way past the filters and stop the wash pump. This is no easy fix if that’s the problem. Other times the wash pump stops working by itself. If either one is the problem it won’t be worth fixing.


I have noticed my silverware turning darker after a dishwasher run. What is causing this?

There are a few possible causes. One cause that I find people frequently comment on is the detergent you use. Some of them are more harsh and may cause staining or discoloration. Sometimes it can be caused by the silverware not being dried soon enough. Another possible cause is other objects in you dishwasher adversely reacting with your silverware. If this is a new problem with the same home, same dishwasher, same silverware I would start with changing the detergent and/or rinsing agent.

Is it ok to run the garbage disposal when the dishwasher is running?

Yes. Your dishwasher discharge hose is probably hooked into the side of the disposal. Running your disposal will not hurt the dishwasher.


Can you run the dishwasher if the garbage disposal is not connected?

The disposal has to be in place so that the drain on the dishwasher is connected. If you do not have a disposal or are removing it, there is a extension tube for the drain that has the dishwasher tube in it. The disposal does not have to work for the dishwasher to drain. The water is run through the disposal so that any food particles get ground before going in the drain. After a while, the disposal will begin to smell if it is not run.


What is more energy efficient a dishwasher or a sink?

The dishwasher is more efficient, undoubtedly. Washing anything by hand, unless absolutely necessary, is a waste of time, water & energy. I recommend putting just about anything in the dishwasher: plates pots pans dishes, without rinsing. Try it out, let the dishwasher show you what it can do. Pots & pans will dull, but won't otherwise change. Teflon pans will wear, you have to decide if you want the ease of the dishwasher and replace them as needed. Don't put in cast iron pans, nor Great Aunt Agatha's China unless you are sure about it. If the dishwasher is not full, most dishwashers have a rinse-only option, run that rinse-only if you don't plan to run a full cycle in the dishwasher until the next day. Washing in the sink before you run a cycle adds the problem that dishwasher-soap usage is based on dirty dishes, not clean, you could be over sudsing. If you can, run the hot water faucet before starting the dishwasher, so that the dishwasher has to expend less electrical energy to heat the water to the correct temperature for the cycle.


What type of energy is used in a dishwasher?

Electricity to run the dishwasher. That electricity can be generated by coal, solar, gas, or hydro power.
