Whirlpool dishwasher not washing properly

Dishes come out gritty, with film, or with detergent still on them. These are the Whirlpool part numbers we hold for the components that cause it, with the number of models each one is listed against.

Before you order anything

  1. Pull the spray arms and check the holes — a single blocked jet changes the wash pattern across a whole rack.
  2. Clean the filter before changing any part; most 'not washing' calls end there.
  3. Check the racks and rollers too: a rack that sits low blocks the arm from turning.

This is a diagnostic starting point built from the parts listed for Whirlpool dishwashers, not a service manual. Confirm the model plate inside the door before ordering: one character changes the part.
