Step 5 Fixing these faults may take a bit longer, involve more steps or require the removal of some panels or parts within the machine.Overall Condition: Assess the overall condition of your dishwasher. If other major components are failing or if the appliance is very old, it might be more cost-effective to invest in a new dishwasher. Remove all the screws under the main door.
