    Hello. Wondering if anyone has a good recommendation for a company to take a look at our dishwasher? Thank you.

    When my dishwasher stopped working I found a repair video on youtube.com that had a simple quick fix. I just ran a few searches with the manufactures name and dishwasher repair. You can also look for troubleshooting tips on the manufactures website. If all else fails there is always sears home services but the bill will add up fast so get an estimate for the visit.

    Good Luck,

    We have had good luck with AVS: http://avsservice.com/

    To echo the comments above, appliances tend to fail in a typical way for a manufacturer. Our Maytag dishwasher is now on its third door handle. I bought the part on Amazon and it is the simplest fix one can do - now twice.

    When the tech from AVS showed up in my driveway (this happened twice for different appliances) he asked the brand and what was wrong. He then rummaged around in the back of his station wagon and pulled out a part and announced "this is it". I asked how he knew and he answered "it always is." Since then, I google the model and problem and buy the part and install it myself if it is not time critical like a refrigerator.
