Homeowners can count on Sears Home Services as the local industry leader in home appliance repair. If you own a Jenn-Air dishwasher, count on us when you need unexpected repairs or regular appliance maintenance.
Like most major brands, Jenn-Air dishwashers need basic upkeep as they get older. Our knowledgeable technicians are trained to identify issues, replace wearing seals and attachments, and improve overall efficiency.
Sears is an appliance repair company you can count on. With thousands of dishwasher repairs scheduled every year, the knowledgeable appliance repair experts at Sears Home Services are ready to help you with the Jenn-Air service you need.
Load it up, run a cycle, open the door expecting clean dishes. Instead, you've got food stuck all over everything. This is not what you paid premium dollars for.
The dispenser door sticks sometimes. It should pop open during the main wash. If it stays shut, detergent never gets released. The spring mechanism wears out or gets gunked up with old detergent residue. Clean around the spring and door edges. This might help fix the problem. If not, you’ll need to schedule dishwasher repair service.
Those detergent pods can cause problems too. Sometimes they don't always dissolve right in JennAir's cycle patterns. They can get stuck in the dispenser or fall to the bottom without dissolving properly. Regular powder or liquid dishwasher detergent sometimes works better in these machines.
JennAirs are supposed to be whisper quiet. New noises mean something's not right.
Water on the floor around a dishwasher never makes anybody happy. JennAirs leak for several common reasons.
Drain pumps quit working properly. Your cycle ends but there's standing water in the bottom. The pump might make noise but it's not pushing water out like it should. The impeller inside gets corroded or something's blocking it.
Drain hoses kink or get clogged. The ribbed hose from the dishwasher to your garbage disposal gets gunked up over years of use. Food particles build up like plaque in arteries. Eventually nothing gets through. Replacing the hose is easier than trying to clean it out.
Check the drain setup too. JennAirs need the drain hose up in a high loop before it connects to the disposal or drain. Without that high loop, dirty water from the sink drains back into your clean dishwasher.
Those sleek touch controls look great until they stop responding. Push the buttons and nothing happens. Or the display shows gibberish.
Moisture gets behind the panel. These are electronic components that hate water. Ironic for a dishwasher. Steam seeps in over time or liquid runs down the door and finds a path inside. Causes short circuits or corrosion on the traces. Sometimes drying it out helps temporarily.
Power surges fry the electronics too. One good lightning strike and your fancy control panel becomes an expensive piece of plastic. Surge protectors help but most folks don't use them on dishwashers.
Ribbon cables work loose sometimes. They connect the touch panel to the main control board. The door opening and closing thousands of times makes them fatigue or disconnect. Reseating them sometimes fixes the issue, but getting to them means taking half the door apart.
Modern JennAirs run longer cycles than old-school dishwashers. That's normal. But when it runs for 3+ hours for a normal load, something's wrong.
Some JennAir dishwasher issues you can tackle yourself. Cleaning the filter, checking for clogged spray arms, making sure nothing's blocking the pump intake - basic maintenance keeps things running right.
But for electrical problems, water damage to electronic components, or anything requiring special tools, calling us makes sense. Our dishwasher service techs work on high-end appliances like JennAir all the time. They’re factory training on these specific models means we know what to look for.
