Stephen R Philadelphia , PA March 30, 2014 Appliance: Maytag Dishwasher MDB4100AWW My dishwasher wasn't cleaning properly.....residue was being left on the dishes and a puddle of water remained in the machine after the load was supposedly done I knew from experience it was a clogged secondary filter. We keep a kosher kitchen and it's big enough to have 2 dishwashers......one for meat dishes and one for dairy dishes. The meat one tends to get clogged more than the other one, as it is dealing with animal fats that tend to leave residue inside the secondary filter.

Change the filter, clean up any other filters that are readily accessible and it works fine.
