What to check first

• Confirm the dishwasher actually fills with water.

• Check the filter, drain path, and spray arms before replacing parts.

• Make sure the door latch and alignment are solid.

• Watch for leaks at the door, pump, and bottom seam.

• Only move to control or pump parts after the basic water path checks pass.
