Customer Questions and Answers for Dishwasher Float (Water Level) by Whirlpool

Hi Dave. You basically need to remove the racks and all the wash arms. Use a pick tool under the sink and flush out the debris stuck in all the wash arm jet holes. Then start at the top of the motor pump assy. and use a shop vac. and paper towels to remove the filter flow plate with the 2 thin washers. Remove the round tall pump filter. Clean it also and all parts. Then below it is a cross shape rinse arm assy. that is 4" tall x 7" wide. Going vertical on all 4-sides are slots which will get clogged also and needs to be cleaned. Keep going as low as possible and you eventually will get to the chopper blade. There is a impeller that is approx. 2" diameter and is 2" tall. IT is black and round with a 5/16" bolt holding it down in the center. Inspect this internally to make sure all blades are still intact. If compromised, then you need to replace it. This cleaning along with monthly use of Dishwasher magic part # TJ104 or Glisten part # W10135699, should keep performance levels up to par. Thank You.
