What’s Causing Your Dishwasher’s Unusual Noises?
A quiet kitchen is something we all appreciate—until your dishwasher starts making unexpected noises. If you’re hearing rattling, grinding, humming, or buzzing during a wash cycle, it might be time to give your dishwasher some attention. Strange noises can be a warning sign of a developing issue, and catching it early can save you from a costly repair or replacement down the road.
Here are some common causes of unusual dishwasher noises:
– Grinding or buzzing: Often caused by debris caught in the chopper blade or drain pump. Over time, food particles and broken glass can damage components, causing the motor to strain.
– Rattling: Loose dishes or utensils may be vibrating during the cycle. Check to ensure items are secured and not touching each other.
– Humming: A low humming is normal, but loud or prolonged humming can indicate a motor or pump problem.
– Squealing or high-pitched noises: These could point to worn-out bearings, a failing motor, or belts that need to be replaced.
– Ignoring these sounds might result in leaks, poor cleaning performance, or a complete breakdown. That’s where we come in.
