Plumber for Dishwasher Repair – MDTECH Technical Solutions

While general plumbing is outside of MDTECH’s core appliance repair services, we understand that issues with a dishwasher often involve both electrical/mechanical components and plumbing connections (such as drainage and water supply).

MDTECH Technical Services specializes in the electrical, mechanical, and drain-related repair of the dishwasher unit itself, which is often the cause of “plumbing” symptoms like leaks or poor drainage. We serve the Greater Los Angeles and Orange County, California areas.

Our expertise lies in diagnosing whether the fault is truly a broken pipe/drain line (a general plumbing issue) or a malfunction within the dishwasher’s specialized components (an appliance repair issue).

MDTECH’s Specialization in Dishwasher Plumbing-Related Failures

Our C-20 licensed mechanical contractors are uniquely qualified to resolve the following dishwasher problems that are frequently mistaken for general plumbing issues:

1. Water Not Draining (Drain Pump Failure)

• Symptom: Water sits in the bottom of the dishwasher tub after the cycle finishes.

• The Appliance Fault: The Drain Pump or Drain Solenoid has failed electrically, or the drain pump filter is severely clogged.

• MDTECH Solution: We diagnose the drain pump, replace it if electrically failed, or clear the internal filters and check the air gap/high loop for blockages, which prevents proper water evacuation.

2. Leaks During Operation (Internal Component Failure)

• Symptom: Water leaking from the bottom of the door or underneath the unit.

• The Appliance Fault: A failed Tub Seal, a split Circulation Pump housing, a cracked Detergent Dispenser, or a faulty Water Inlet Valve that is stuck open.

• MDTECH Solution: We pinpoint the source of the leak, which usually requires replacing an internal mechanical seal, the pump assembly, or the inlet valve, preventing further water damage.

3. Water Not Filling (Inlet Valve Failure)

• Symptom: The dishwasher starts, runs quietly for a while, but no water enters the tub.

• The Appliance Fault: A failed Water Inlet Valve (the solenoid is electrical, not plumbing related) or a malfunctioning Float Switch (safety mechanism).

• MDTECH Solution: We test and replace the water inlet valve and verify the function of the float switch and control board.

4. Supply Line and Shut-Off Valve Service (Connection Points)

• Symptom: Leaks at the connection point between the house plumbing and the dishwasher.

• MDTECH Solution: We can replace the flexible supply hose and service the dishwasher’s specific shut-off valve beneath the sink.
