Maytag dishwasher will not work
We have a 5 year old Maytag dishwasher, model MDBF750AWQ, that stopped
working. No lights are lit on the panel, power is working at the junction box where the dishwasher is wired into. Any ideas where to look next? Perhaps the soft touch control panel is bad? Thanx for any ideas. Frank |

While that might be the problem, it may also be upstream, like a poor connection from the 120 V input. Do a logical voltage survey/check to eliminate the simple things first. Then contact repairclinic.com or other experts amd play the 'gottabe' game as they suggest. Good luck. Joe |

Joe I verified the power source and there is 120V going into the dishwasher. Will check repairclinic.com. Thanx for your advice. |

I pitched my copy when mine did not have all the right numbers, but you are in the right age range. They also have a serious recall list for washing machines. Dave Scudamore Aroundtoit Handyman |

Frank As one of our friends have suggested, the repairclinic.com site is very helpful and even their service is great. I had a similar problem with my Maytag dishwasher last year and thankfully, it turned out to be faulty contact switches in the door of the dishwasher which are easy to replace. The parts ordering is also very intuitive and the shipment arrived in 2-3 days. All the best for your situation...from the sounds of it, i think your problem is also with the door switches. Cheers, |

Check the recall list. Also if it is a 3 level dishwasher, they are crap in
my experience and you are lucky it lasted 5 years. "Frank from Deeetroit" wrote in message ... We have a 5 year old Maytag dishwasher, model MDBF750AWQ, that stopped working.
